I thought this could be a new thread for today. BurbankKarl's thread did well yesterday.

"The United Nations Security Council votes unanimously to demand North Korea suspend its ballistic missile program." CNN

[MozartLover]

Thanks. Four months 'til we get him back. Not that I'm counting the days or anything.;^)

[Luke21]

Some of us have a more supernatural take on the matter, and Israel isn't going anywhere.

[Rte66]

It's better than Mr. GreenJeans, isn't it?

[PureSolace]

CNN International talking about leaflets in "Sidon"? sp? port town near Beiruit, that Israel is dropping.

Basically the leaflets said, "Is the resistance helping Lebanon? The Resistance is not Helpng Lebanon!!!" the leaflets also had a picture of a snake with one of Hezbollah's leaders head as the head of the snake.

Must be scary to know those leaflets could of been bombs.

[Neverforget01]

hard to concentrate...

Now there's a shock..Our hearts are with you.. Mrs. Sofa must be a wreck and his sister must be beside herself..

We own Jordanian intelligence.

True enough. But the top secret NSA listening post in Jordan was moved a few years back to an off-shore location.

[sofaman]

Mrs S is worried but won't allow it to deter her from whatever she's doing...the Sofalass is happy, happy...that kid is always smiling..

[BurbankKarl]

Yes, they have been dropping leaflets....probably to warn to the people get out of the way when they invade Lebanon.

[Rte66]

Heh, good luck with that. I saw interviews with men who were still walking around outside, going to a coffee shop for their regular chess game - outside. Many more like that - MSM.

[DCPatriot]

I use him [Drudge] for my startup page for the links, little else.

Well, that's a pretty big "little else", IMO.

The guy has to sleep sometime, you know.

[Rte66]

That *is* what some of them said - to stay away from any Hizzie haunts for a while, if you know what's good for you.

[Chuck54]

I don't care what he looks like, he's the right man in the right job at the right time. That's what I care about.

Could I give you a hearty AMEN for that remark?

WHO knows the location of our carriers in case we have to strike Iran??

[RightWhale]

Lebanon may send troops to the south of Lebanon. They didn't say why.

[wildcatf4f3]

Thats very nice but I'd like the physical Israel to be there tomorrow also

[defconw]

Are you from the NYT?

The info is public if you search it out, I prefer not to post it openly however.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the draft reinstated before christmas if this escalates.
