Bingo...I know that Biden is supposed to be on one of them. And he is already on record as saying that this would NOT be happening if the US hadn't invaded Iraq.

I think that they are well aware that this is their chance to get it done once and for all and eliminate the threat.

Depends on the definition of "once and for all". To me, that would include Syria for starts. And I don't the Israeli's will go there.

Ginsberg: potential for the situation to escalate if they can't negotiate terms for cease-fire.........the US has BASICALLY said to Israel..you have a WINDOW to remove Hizbullah...the danger is that Israel will do TOO much damge to civilian infrasturcture...

Pincus: Imagine 300 missles launched (from Bethesda to Washington DC as example).ingredients are there for spillover....this is a border war between democracy and radical islam...

Well..that is good then...because I am sure it was written excoriating Israel..and Bolton wasn't going to let that happen.

Bolton is doing some great work at the UN..even though it ultimately ends up meaningless...

Did you see the title of the show 'FLIGHT 800" IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. Stupid aren't they? It's Bush's fault the title should be. Did anyone hear what Putin said to the President? Something about his country I'm not sure what it was but Putin replied "I don't want my country like Iraq" and the people laughed. I was livid they are laughing at the blood America has shed! What an ugly bastard he is. I will have to find the transcript. The CNN report kept calling the President MR. BUSH. Ok I got that all off my chest!.................

Franklin GRaham is Billy Grahams son and wants Bush" to just sit down with Kim and talk to him, sometimes when you sit face to face with someone....." DUH? You are not your father Franklin, stay out of politics...wasn't Billy Graham anti semitic in his earlier days?

The other one is Rick Warren who wrote The Purpose Driven Life and is a real media whore and money maker!( the flaming will start for that).

Biden is admitting that the DUmocrats would kick the can down the road and leave the problem for the next administrations to deal with, meanwhile costing many lives.

Hello,

Yeah, Joe, there was peace, calm, flowers blooming, hugs, small dinner parties, kites flying, free love, music in the air, and just a general feeling of happiness in the ME, before the US invaded Iraq.

Yeah.

Glad to be here, MOgirl

Time to sink some dockside or channel transiting tankers. Put the Iranians out of the oil business for several months. The Iranians only have a couple of major oil terminals and those are very, very, vulnerable... Now that's a message. I'd pay an extra price at the pumps for that to happen....

I too saw the "reverend" with his advice for the President. Since when to average Americans go to the countries of our enemies and come back with advice for the President? Who does this guy think he is, John Kerry?

I think the likelihood of escalation of this into the full-fledged War with Iran is getting higher. Syria will be a speedbump in that conflict...

Uhm...fasten your seatbelts kids:

Said (Senator Russ)Feingold: "My hope would be that Israel would use as much restraint as possible .... It's in Israel's interest and the interests of peace.

But I do think Israel has not only a right but also a responsibility to respond to the Hezbollah attack."

I don't care much for media preachers.
It is all show and money for them.
Most have never lived in the real world and have never
heald a real job.
