I'm anticipating Shep getting down there and dramatizing again. Maybe Whore-aldo too.

I'm sure if a DEMOCRATIC administration were in charge, all 'refugees' would be home safely already, snug in their beds. (Never mind that RPG fire, climb on the chopper, dude!)

I hope the Iranians were totally humiliated. Of course, that could be why they're not ready to rush ahead right now, either. Of course, since I wrote that earlier, their rhetoric has picked up.

I'm sure little Kim wasn't happy the rocket fizzled as fast as it did.

"The law requiring reimbursement was written in 1956. All people evacuated will be required to sign in when embarking on vehicle, but no one will be turned away."

And CNN is out there sticking microphones in front of people and soliciting complaints against "the decision of the Bush administration to require payment."

What pathetic liars.

If the chemical plants are anything like Houston's they are specifically and redundantly designed not to explode. Most likely, they have been emptied and have nothing in process as a safety measure.

My concern would be such things as chlorine tanks. They would take a direct hit but could be nasty. Underground tanks might be an option as the gas is heavier than air. It would be hard to "fail safe" a chemical plant but I would doubt the nuclear equivalent verbiage. Israel likely has at least as good a system as our industry does.

Did you catch the interview he had with the family of one of the missing soldiers? My grandarlins started squabbling and I missed the whole thing. I was hoping he hadn't found some 'Cindy Sheehans'.

Israel's enemy has about 8,000 rockets and missiles left according to Israel National Radio. Too bad Syria isn't paying for this. Why?

Does Syria have something that keeps US at bay. Maybe Saddams WMDs?

Whether they do or don't, Syria is overdue for lots of serious AZZWUPPIN. Iran too.

The roadblocks sound like a target for gunships. Take them out and let the people go.

I saw it. They were wonderful people. The wife of the soldier was lovely, his father was concerned but very strong. This was in spite of Shep's stupid questions, very ala Katie Couric. "How does it feeeeuuul?"

Israel is trying NOT to provoke the Syrians into an attack. They want to cut apart HEZ, but attacking Syria first only weakens thier political postion worldwide...

Better that Iran forces them to attack to save thier dying clients in Lebanon...
