WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration is rushing a delivery of precision-guided bombs to Israel, which requested the expedited shipment last week after beginning its air campaign against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, The New York Times reported on Saturday.
Citing U.S. officials who spoke on Friday on condition of anonymity, the Times said the decision to ship the weapons quickly came after relatively little debate within the administration, and noted in its report that its disclosure threatens to anger Arab governments and others who could perceive Washington as aiding Israel in the manner that Iran has armed Hezbollah.
The munitions are actually part of a multimillion-dollar arms-sale package approved last year which Israel is able to tap when it needs to, the officials told the Times. But some military officers said the request for expedited delivery was unusual and indicated that Israel has many targets it plans to hit in Lebanon.

On the subject of precision guided munitions...
This is what Bush meant when asking Israel to exercise restraint. Restraint from our point of view is precision bombing vs. carpet bombing.
-----
When the Europeans ask for Israel to exercise restraint, they usually mean they want Israel to roll over and die.

To: Cinnamon
The article may or may not be correct considering the source.
Incidentally, this really should be neither news nor controversial. As long as the Israelis are taking out Islamic terrorists, we should be doing everything in our power to assist in their noble efforts.

You are absolutely correct!
The NYSlimes, and their liberal conspirators, see some sort of incredible parity between Israel and the scum sucking, bottom feeding, subhumans that all intelligent life recognizes as "terrorists". It is a ridiculous, totally baseless assertion---even for the NYSlimes.

Seems that NewsMax is as treasonous as the NY Times (at least on this topic), and isn't very accurate at that.
To: Cinnamon
... noted in its report that its disclosure threatens to anger Arab governments and others... Actually, I am guessing that this is a lie. I think that the Slimes is past the treasonous stage and into the stage of craving attention and pleading for some kind of relevance.
I am enjoying their rapid descent into nothingness :-)

the Slimes is past the treasonous stage Hard to believe the viciousness of competition for the fishwrapper market. Capitalism is a beautiful thing. Go NY Post (Such as it is.)

Brilliant point!
But the truth is that they live on the idea that they are the victims...
so the more civilian casualties, the better they can sell their product, enforce their postition, and excite Jihadi mobs around the world.
