cib! Yo!
not good news about the deployment of Patriot missile batteries to Hafia, means they expect incoming ballastic missiles, which could spell Syrian or Iranian intervention
signing off now..back in about an hour
CNN is working on putting up a map that shows real time or recent strike locations. Will be up soon. Karl can you or someone capture it?
CNN reporting northern Lebanon port town of Jouniah also under attack. Tripoli and Jouniah have historically had large Christian populations, so I'm a little puzzled (Hezbollah leadership trying to escape?)
So happy to hear the good news about your son!
He is obviously very intellegent, with a great sense of humor.....
I bet he takes after you! :-)
I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
So when the report says "katyusha" they mean missile in a generic sense. Could they be the same type of "Fajr" missile that hit Haifa day before yesterday, the ones where the warheads shoot bullets?
also said the Arab League demanded the release of Lebanese captives and detainees in Israeli prisons, and supported Lebanon's right to "liberate them by all legitimate means."
Sounds an awful lot like Hezbollah and Lebanese officials and the Arab League are interchangeable groups doesn't it
CNN is unwatchable. So pro-Arab.
