I hate reading that. Our daughter is getting deployed to Qatar in Sept for 4 months. I've been watching to see which side they would come down and this makes me real nervous.
This did push those Indian bombings off the front pages pretty quickly.
FNC: Italian PM statement due shortly. Expected to say that Hezbollah must withdraw from the Israeli border.
bttt!
I'm a little tired but I just want to say thank you for this thread.
I haven't been sleeping too much in the past couple of days. However I will try to take a brief nap before the news shows because I was awake earlier to watch the news but now don't remember what happened.
And this is supposed to be my vacation. LOL
Okay, back to your regularly scheduled person who actually makes sense (after a little nap). :)
Thanks for the post.If we didn't have a large number of idiot Libs here we could really do something.
Heh. The Sunday shows this morning will be filled with terrorist appeasers saying that Israel is using disproportionate force.
- US Marine and Veteran of the current world war.
CNN: News conference going on live.
CNN showing news conference in Haifa right now.
Disproportionate force will be when they nuke Lebanon. Until then I say have at it!
This is what has been driving me crazy about CNN. I just don't want to hear about unimportant stuff now, you know?
I care about the CA fire, and obviously anything about North Korea, but beyond that... please! Yesterday I turned it on in the middle of the day and there was something completely irrelevant. It drove me crazy, particularly because I have no other American news channel.
Plame must be really irritated, btw, at the timing of her lawsuit, LOL! Nobody cares! Sweet justice, LOL!
We know that's the Albright approach which I always find highly ironic considering she's from Czechoslovakia.
Thank you for posting that--I've been searching/waiting for Mark Steyn's take on this.
Good morning:) I'm with you...went to sleep around 11..woke up @ 5...not enough sleep for a grown-up.
I tried a nap around 7..didn't work out so well..hope you have better luck!
Wonder how MadMood slept last night...
I had to work yesterday so I asked my brother about the latest on the war and he said he didn't know because everytime he turned on the television it was all about Plame.
It will also be said to be the President's fault for whatever reason they can drum up. Bill Kristol has gone barking mad. He thinks the President should fly into Jerusalem. Right, Bill, send the President of the United States into a war zone (something he has done, of course).
Haifa news conference: Amir Peretz, Israeli Defense Minister: For a long, long time the terrorists counted on the weakness of ... that we would be a government that wouldn't act iwth appropriate firmness.
The harm and injury is serious and I wish to send my condolences to those impacted. No one should think, God forbid, that they are sacrificing in vain. I want the families to know tha teveryone who had attacked and harmed the city of Haifa will pay a very expensive price for this.
Everybody who speaks to me, every single citizen who calls me says the same thing -- if we started this war then finish it properly. Finish it.
What I want you to know is this: Hezbollah is extremely surprised. They put a rocket in a home of a family and they are surprised we have dared attack the most sensitive headquarters of Hezbollah. That has never been done in the past.
They are surprised by the determination of the homefront. What do they see? They see a country united and has closed ranks and it's important for this attitude to prevail because this is what will be decided. We now have a situation where the army is fighting for its home. That's the picture. Everyone know we're fighting for our homes. Our famlies are being attacked.
We have also today given our pr omise that every source of firing, irrespective of where the firing comes from, you should know they themselves will be hit. Any source of firing with be dealt with the appropriate force and intensity.
