So his references are about hitting a chemical plant...or is he slyly referencing WMD's?

Me too, I used to love going to the library and checking out any books to do with History.. one reason I really like Newt is his grasp of History and how it affects everything around us.

I couldn't have said it better. Hezbollah ahs been allowed to fester for too long.

I really feel that Israel intends to take them out this time. They give all appearance of digging in. I hope they keep at it and don't allow any of these useless "peace brokers" to come in and foil their objective.

No ceasefire until Hezbollah is no longer standing.

He's saying that the two Israeli soldiers weren't worth this "reaction" from Israel. He is scum.

Wasn't it Andrea Mitchell who got man-handled in the Sudan while on a junket with the Sec State and Condi MADE the Sudanese govt apologize for the rough treatment of an American reporter?

Just goes to show no good deed goes unpunished and loyalty means NOTHING to a liberal Democrap shill.

" He's REALLY down on Israel's tactics."

Whats with the Major Hissy fit....this guy really has gone of his meds.

I notice though that he's addressed as Major "BOB". The Fox reporters address all the other military analyst by title and last name ( i.e Col Hunt ). Any time some one is addressed by their honorific and then their first name it immediately undermines their credibility.

I'm not suprised, I think this will escalate because the madman in Iran wants it to escalate. I'd like to know what was in the note he sent King Abdullah Sunday.

My take on it is that Nasarallah is eluding at two things really. First is that the Israeli chem plants are targets to create a great loss of life, and second is that they do still have weaponry left that has the range and accuracy to hit it.

As far as WMDs, it seems likely that they have them. Syria does, and Syria has been helping supply them. What I'm not sure about is what means of delivery they have for them.

FNC needs to dump Major Bob! He's clearly out of the loop! I'd like to hear what Monsoor Ijaz (sp?) has to say.

alert Allegra......please let the soldiers in Iraq know that 2 of them are being KIA every hour in Iraq.

I don't think they've received Maj Bob's memo....this is what he just said on FOX...Israel overreacting to 2 soldiers kidnapped...we lose 2 soldiers every hour in Iraq...

Yes, Col. Hunt is a treasure... I love how he slaps down Alan Colmes every night.

You know, I was wondering the same thing....if he's Lebanese or married to one. He sure doesn't seem to like Israel.....that much is obvious.

Fox News Ticker: Iran prepared to attack US interests worlwide

Iran has been saying things like that. They've been posturing and making threats for a long time and thankfully, none of it has come to fruition. I hope it stays that way.

Interesting that they are threatening the U.S. when we are not engaged in this latest war at all right now.
