What Israel is giving the Western world is a gift. Rice will not call for a cease fire because she understands that Hezbollah needs to be taken out and Israel is trying to do just that. We here in America should understand their efforts are truly heroic.

Hubby and I were talking about this last night...it must really unnerve them that America has a strong, intelligent woman--who won't throw in the towel, when dealing with one.

YOU GO DR. RICE!

[NordP]

This is NOT "Tora Bora II," gentlemen!

Yesterday, Rice and the President dropped everything because the Saudis wanted a meet.

"After pressure from the Saudis, Rice seemed to take a softer line than last Friday when she said an immediate ceasefire would be a "false promise" that would let Hezbollah reemerge to attack Israel".

[SJackson]

We'll see. She's meeting Abbas today, for what I can't imagine.

[Sabramerican]

For the same reason every President meets with another turkey before Thanksgiving.

It's a symbolic necessity.

Are the Saudis starting to wet their robes? Yhey started a large portion of this current mess and now they are crying to stop it.Hey mount up on one of your smelley camel and join the fight.

“It is very important,” she said, “to establish conditions under which a ceasefire can take place. [. . .] It is important to have conditions that will make it also sustainable.”

I don't think the Israelis would disagree. Israel has said from day 1 they would halt their attack, if rockets are no longer coming from Lebanon and the captured IDF members are returned.

HooYah to that.

Nope. That is what the junk media wants you to belive. Only problem for the hysteric Bush haters, it just another media manufactured lie. If the Knee Jerks would ever shut up their perpetual whining and LISTEN to what every single Bush Administration person is saying, they would KNOW this was a lie. But of course, it not about the facts. It about the Whine All The Timers finding SOMETHING to pout about today. New day, same pathetic whining.

[Sabramerican]

Nope

I've got to do something about my lying eyes. I hope there is a cure. I also hope they find a cure for blind unthinking rationalizing everything Bushbotness.

[Sabramerican]

And one more thing: cut the Bush haters BS.

The second most enthusiastic vote I ever cast, after Reagan 1980, was for Bush in 2004.

I didn't elect a King. I voted for a President who I rejudge every day based on his actions. The conclusion is cumulative.

[Gucho]

we will support a "Cease Fire" when Hizbolla is dead and gone."I do agree!!!



Bump!

[MNJohnnie]

Yeah yeah yeah, new day same old ranting. Maybe the Perpetually Whining should listen more and post less. No matter what is going on it the same old bitch for you guys

[sheik yerbouty]

I don't either..

In my imagination, Condi addresses the Palestinian people on TV and lays it out to them what it really takes to suceeed as a minority.
