You, my friend, have been spending too much time on the Freepathon thread...LOL...fair funkle...LOL

A compulsion that lingers from the Operation Iraqi Freedom thread days, and my habit of spending the wee hours there with kindred nutcases and ne'er-do-wells (whom I'll not name, or I'd have to ping them, and they'd deny it all ;-).

Hey..haven't seen you for awhile!

Interesting analysis. I agree that it is VERY unlikely that Israel will use nukes- it would take EXTREME provocation by Syria or Iran.

Rhetoric............is a way of life for them. As is lying.

and probably has a ton of followers ready to do anything at his command.

Could make for a bigger target without having to explain collateral damage. But I see what you mean. Old and young, the populations of these countries are so excitable - they'll do anything.

25,000 American civilians are trapped in Lebanon.

Whew...hearing Haig reminded me of what it was like...grownups. He was thoughtful, articulate and without any jargon or buzz words. An adult man.
