BTTT
Jerusalem Post:
According to an Al-Jazeera report, an Air Force jet was downed over Lebanon Monday afternoon.
The IDF denied the reports after an initial investigation.
F16 in East Beruit.
Hhhmmm..but see # 385...guess we won't know the real deal for awhile yet..
Could be a drone.
Also, boots on the ground could be SAR.
Careful putting too much stock into early reports.
Sirens going off in Haifa and Mike Tobin's camera area shows two rockets that just made landfall in Haifa. Two in the sea and two on land visible behind him.
They were fired from Sour (Tyre) Lebanon.
FOX live in Haifa..sirens in the background..two missles in the last few minutes...very near to yesterday's hit.
Fox is reporting that Israeli boots are on the ground in Lebanon.
Air Raid Sirens in Haifa Israel. Does not look like anything.
Just saw this report on the NYTimes front page
BREAKING NEWS 7:27 AM ET: An Israeli government spokesman says its ground forces have entered southern Lebanon to attack Hezbollah bases.
Mike is giving us a lot of live 'shots' - gun, camera, and rocket. Hope he stays safe.
We just watched footage of it on Al Arabiya TV. They're saying it was a Lebanese helicopter shot down.
?????
Since they are coming from Sour (Tyre) the rockets are coming from further away than the rockets yesterday. Mike Tobin is estimating it might be a distance of 40 miles, meaning these rockets are going further than earlier ones.
I hope Israel attacks Syria. The jerks are supplying the bad guys with weapons. How come they do not go to the route of the problem?
Go figure...but that fits with the Israeli report that it wasn't one of their's...
boots on the ground in Lebanon..
