"wondering how much "stuff" has been transported to Iran from North Korea..either valuable scientific info or materials.."

The US, Australia, and others have been interdicting suspect ships at sea for awhile now. Mainly with the Norcor in mind.

he's actually right on the border, he's now in more danger of rifle fire, mortar fire, anti-tank fire, than he is kaytushas

If not for Iran's protection, IDF would be having beers in downtown Damascus about now.

There is a way to reason with the Syrians. Disarm them. Tell Iran that if they target nuclear facilities, they'll glow in the dark, and then go ahead and finish the 1973 war.

Reporter asking if President Bush is critical at all of Israel "hitting civilians."

Geesh. Can they be more transparent? None of them are worried about Hezbollah's killings.

Tony did a great job of reminding them that Hezbollah hides weapons amongst civilians, though, thank God.

I thought he looked pretty nervous when asking about why the Katusha's (sp) are so silent and you don't know they are incoming until the very last minute. Frankly the reporters, on the ground in Israel and Lebanon, seem much more nervous than I remember in a very long time... tells us just how dangerous this situation is for all of them.

It's too bad that the high passes east of the Bekaa are all in Syria.

Of course with just a slight adjustment in Tehran's attitude, that becomes "too bad...for Syria."

I am disconcerted by the combination of the words "Ahmedinjad," "flash," and "reality."

Yes...bad choice of words in the same sentence. My bad. With my proximity to Iran, I should know better than that. YIKES!

How to disarm them? Door-to-door confiscation (involving dogfights)? Or more leaflets/loudspeakers telling civilians to get out of harms way and pounding Hiz until they're all gone? I'm voting for the latter.

Pretty clear who the White House Press Corps is rooting for! Jeez...what a bunch of idiots. Do they think our President gets a military briefing from Israel each day?

IDIOT reporter suggesting that the US isolation of Iran and Syria is the reason WHY those two countries won't offer to help.

DOES she NOT grasp that those two countries are CAUSING this?

UNbelievable!!!!!

Unreal. Another reporter just asked why the U.S. isn't using Iran and Syria to end the violence!

Can you pull it up and then have the computer do an English translation? I've done that, in Google, with some Spanish documents and it doesn't get them all, but does a pretty good job so you can get the highlights... maybe Google can read Arabic, too?
