If the UN is on a collision course with Islam, what is being a friend of Islam look like?

Oh, maybe he was talking about how the security council, thanks to the US and those in league with it, isn't making Israel bend over and take it?

Instead of calling them liberals, we need a better title: the Anti-nationalists?

Does the sun-spot give it away :) If you notice the position of the focus...it's off centered. This was quite a "posed" picture IMHO

I'm hoping it's posed, if not, you wonder about the life expectancy of that soldier.

Yes... thinking of those from news snippets and what they say.
Whether you agree, I do hope you have a great day--and a prosperous one!

You're right.

In a fiery sermon at this city's Abu Al Nour mosque, Sheik Salah Keftaro said both the U.N. Security Council and the international community were attempting to "undermine our doctrine, occupy our lands and kill our people with the most sophisticated U.S. weapons."

Keftaro also chided Syria's Arab neighbors for condemning the kidnapping earlier this month of two Israeli soldiers by Hezbollah guerillas. Leaders of countries including Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia have criticized Hezbollah for the July 12 kidnapping.

"Our Arab people have been surprised by our Arab leaders who have ignored what is being said on the streets," Keftaro said.

Great movie.
That and Ben Hur. Might have to watch them this weekend if the storms come and I can't go outside.
