Have we adequately rebuilt our amunition supplies? Remember we had to open a bullet factor(ies) here in the USA because the Swiss couldn't or wouldn't keep up with demand (somehow Clinton outsourced our bullet manufacturing to the Swiss)... what about our bombs? Is big bertha ready yet?

Thanks for the update. What do you think about the rumors of Israel threatening Syria?

How many times did we hit that darned Baghdad station (after we decided that Baghdad Bob had spewed off long enough) and they kept getting it back online?

possible...I think that they have warned them, through jordan probably, that if they so much as fart out of tune, Israel will go right down their throat...

Mike Tobin on live right now saying a Hezbolla mucki-muck was killed and Hezbollah has captured an Israeli tank and they want to get it back so it doesn't fall into the hands of Syria.. I'll have to listen again at the top of the hour to see exactly what happened beyond that.

"Really want to get chills, read Ezekiel 38/39"

One of the lines is that they will gather up the weapons of the defeated army and burn them for seven years to head their homes. In a strange way if you were to demilitarize the Iranian nuclear program and use the uranium and plutonium for electricity instead of bombs you could probably actually could "burn" the weapons for seven years.

Hezbollah don't have the tank, I think...Israel can't get to it yet...

Yep, I think if Nasrallah shows up tomorrow it'll look like a bad remake of "Weekend at Bernies".

Putin is not about the Russia deal and also saying no to talking about Israel. I love that Bush is in charge. I heard on FNC that Putin wanted to show off his hometown and be the big wheel, but I think Bush stole his thunder!

Read Joel but I am not the one to answer your question. I didn't get Armageddon out of it, but I'm generally wrong.
