Dan Rather would like to hitch a ride with Geraldo, no doubt.

Interesting you say that, CAluv...I've noticed that, as well. Other than two extremely late overheads about 12:30 AM and 1:15 AM the night before last...not sure if you were still up and heard them or they were directly over my side of the freeway, perhaps...

But it's definitely been much quieter than normal. I had noticed it but wondered if I just somehow wasn't hearing them and they'd changed their routes and weren't quite as far inland as normal. Since you aren't noticing them either, then either they went way further inland or else something has changed in our neck of the woods.

actually this is a good example...after the IDf went into Jenin, the hospitals reported that more than 500 civilians had been killed. The HR orgs went bananas.

Bodies were shown, and as it turned out, the Pallies had dug up bodies already buried, to include in the body count. It took a while to determine that the accusation was a hoax.

To this day, the Palestinians refer to the massacre in Jenin as if it actually occurred.

Joe Cirincione of some thinktank says on FNC that it seems Israel doesn't hav a clear strategy.

How's this for a strategy: Kill as many terrorists as you can lay a hand on and let Lebanon know that you don't think it was a good idea that they had Hezbollah jihadists sitting in their Parliament.

The Arabs take over fertile lands and turn them into dung heaps. "Fresh fruits and vegetables" my eye.

Then you see that Iraqis are out in numbers, protesting Israel's right to exist and praising the Hizbollah terrorists.

This will cause life for our troops in Iraq to get alittle sticky. The US backing Israel and trying to settle things in Iraq. Sigh. I don't think Iraqis give a hoot about Democracy.

I did hear the late ones two nights ago. It's kind of an eerie quiet now compared to what was going on.

Brilliant analysis...

That's what the left cannot see. They don't believe in "evil".

If we would only talk to them, treat them with kindness, they would react positively. Can't recognize the elephant in the living room.

Interesting, Anderson Cooper is beating Gretta now and in both time frames has higher ratings than Larry King... he has been doing a good job of being "fair and balanced" and the ratings indicate people are sick of Gretta's crime reports night after night.

She said the sooner everyone "gets it"...the sooner we can fix it...but NOT by appeasing dictators and terrorist groups..

I'm not holding my breath for them to get it.

"Are our troops being put on a higher level of alert?"

According to my son....."Our alert status hasn't changed here, but it should be noted we are always on high alert so that doesn't mean a whole lot... We always have to be able to clear the front gate within 10 minutes of notification & be ready to rock & roll no matter what."

That is pretty much the way all of them are right now.

Arab's, no matter the sect, have one thing in common -- hatred of Israel, and it knows no boundaries.
