Someone on FR pointed out (I think a few years ago) that Debka is generally highly reliable about info pertaining to Israel, but the further removed from Israel, the more wildly inaccurate.

We`re at war, this is not the time to count the dead...

But with our 24/7 news cycle, we have to know NOW.

I cannot even imagine WWII being fought in today's world. They could actually have secret operations (even the MSM concurred) and the public didn't even know about battles until they were long over.

Nowadays, war has become a video game for many people. We want a running total of casualties at all times, and if we seem to losing the battle, we stop playing.

Sometimes I think our society should get what it deserves...

See if you can find out where he thinks they are sending him ("southern front?").

"Muhammad's Disease"

sarcasm?"

Not really. There are many indications that good old Mo was not right in the head. He was said to suffer from seizures, but was not epileptic. My friend suffered from pseudo seizures, which are real seizures, but are caused by psychosis.

Hopefully it involves staying the *&^% out of the way.

Another point, i'm not sure how bad we've hit Hizbullah's command and control. Today has seen stepped up rocket attacks and they come in barrages, hence coordinated, which implies at some level that Hizbullah command and control is still functional. Once again just proves the point that this is only going to be solved with boots on the ground

How does Haretz get their reporting? People in the field text messaging? Is this the future of news?
