Wow PWD, great explanation. In my continuing effort to better myself as an American Patriot who also loves the State of Israel, I keep asking knowledgeable people questions here at FR and I get unbelievably good answers.

TY. While I'm at it, is the Daisy Cutter a thermobaric munition?

Go America! Go Israel! Defeat Islamofascism!

Ernest, Some wild reading. They are agitated and confused, poor things. E.g.:

"Ignore the pot stirrers. Or the DUers who have fallen for it. Don't ya know..stage two of Rove 30 year empire is to get a small percentage of very pro-Israel voters to flip to Repu**es?"

"i was told yesterday that one of my pro-israel statements sounded like it came from the Free Republic or Freepers.

Late night calls from Israel spook jittery Lebanese





Lebanon residents said the IDF has been harassing them with recorded phone messages.


"I said hello and got a recorded message from Israel saying, ‘Oh Lebanese people, we tell you not to follow Hizbollah. We will continue to strike and no one will bring your prisoners back from Israel except the Lebanese government’,” Bushra Khayyat of Sidon told Reuters. (Reuters)

Now Shep Smith is yelling because he doesn't like the term "animals" being applied to hezbollah.
In the Australian House of Representatives last month, opposition member Julia Gillard interrupted a speech by the minister of health thusly: ``I move that that sniveling grub over there be not further heard.''

For that, the good woman was ordered removed from the House, if only for a day. She might have escaped that little time-out if she had responded to the speaker's demand for an apology with something other than ``If I have offended grubs, I withdraw unconditionally.''

Charles Krauthammer.

Sheppy is very proud of his whinyness and his siding with the other side.

He's probably hoping he can become the next David Gregory. Gregory made an art-form out of acting like a jacka$$. Ah state-of-the-art for our arrogant media. Maybe he'll get to go on Imus too.

That's the only reason to stop it. The Lebanese death toll is negligible and it is pretty easy to drop in supplies for them.

How many more idiot journalists will keep interviewing "experts" on TV about how to end the violence? The answer is by continuing the Israeli campaign. Secy. Rice is in no hurry.

I think you're right it will be NATO, not the UN.

Bush Administration officials are continually pointing out the length of time all of these resolutions, peace keeping forces, etc., have been in place and have accomplished nothing.

They are saying to the world, in the frightening face of terrorism, bureaucracy and diplomatic talks will do nothing to keep us safe. Only a military response that eliminates the enemy and its threat against western civilization.

I was much more involved...more questions to the Syrian people...I just gave the "highlights"...I was pleasantly surprised that it ended the way it did...because I was getting mighty angry with Cooper until then.
