And now we get at least a third viewing of Heartland on Fox......apparently everyone in the US media is tired of this story.......

At least CNN Int'l comes live again for a bit.......I've never watched this much CNN...

Further down they say Lebanese military fired on IAF....that and helping Iran track that ship should seal their fate.

Fox has always been somewhat lazy about covering live events overnight. I guess they figure no one is watching so why bother?

CO Northern Command: heavy bombardment to begin in southern Lebanon





In an interview to a northern Israel radio station, the head of IDF Northern Command, Maj. Gen. Udi Adam, said that "Sunday morning, we told residents of southern Lebanon to evacuate their towns, as we intend to begin a heavy bombardment in the area." (Hagai Einav)

Give me a break, there needs to be a call for an emergency govt., Olmert does not have what it takes to see this conflict thru to the end. Any other confirmation about another attack on the way?

Is this from a new attack? Not the one that just killed nine Israelis?

Kuwaitis? Burning the US flag? ...They must have a short memory. Or does their hatred of Jews out weigh any gratitude they might have felt for the US coming to their aid back when Saddam wanted more territory?

That should be reading "4 more explosions in Damascus". Its like Israel wants to be a war of attrition for the next million years. They refuse to do what is necessary to eradicate the threat once and for all.

There was a rumor a few days ago about a three-member "emergency government" being installed - Olmert, Bibi, and one other guy who I can't think of at the moment.

His words posted by Karl earlier gave me concern about his leadership. But what do I know about being a president or prime minister, etc during wartime? He doesn't sound like a "cowboy". Guess I am wanting a Gen Patton type.

Prayers up for God to give him guidance in this most troubling time.
