US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice salutes a US Marine as she walks towards a helicopter upon her departure from Beirut after meeting with Lebanese officials.
I think thew difference in those days was between the "Nationalist" socialists and the "Internationalist" socialists.

U.S. Soldiers in Iraq Encourage IDF Troops
17:33 Jul 25, '06 / 29 Tammuz 5766
(IsraelNN.com) American soldiers in Iraq have sent Internet messages of encouragement to IDF soldiers via the new web site established by British citizen John Wilkes, who set up the web site out of concern for a friend of his in the IDF.
More than 400 messages from outside Israel have been sent to IDF soldiers, including several from the Americans. "Take care of the Hizbullah; we will take care of Iran," wrote one U.S. soldier. Another wrote, "From Iraq, we wish good tidings for you brave IDF soldiers. The American army is 100 percent for Israel."
"This is like certain nationally syndicated sportswriters that go into the tank and print biased news columns about their local professional sports teams...lest they be banned from the locker room/clubhouse."
Similar situations except the lethal results are to the sportswriters careers instead of their lives.
WHO is "dinglenuts?"
We know what's insinuated here

Do you really think hez would post that kind of an announcement for all the world to see if it were real?
I guess Greek trade unions and the US Army are poles apart - but I'm sure you knew that.
:))
I am thinking the Ambassador is where the press is staying ... Hez wants IDF to off the press, and then incur thier wrath.
I'm merely posting what's being said.
Believe what you wish.

Fighter jets destroy ten buildings in Lebanese capital
By YAAKOV KATZ AND JPOST.COM STAFF
IAF fighter jets bombarded Beirut on Tuesday afternoon, the first strikes in the city for nearly two days. A series of at least five heavy blasts were heard in the capital and a cloud billowed up from the southern district, a Hizbullah stronghold that has been heavily bombarded in the past.
The IDF confirmed it had destroyed 10 buildings in the Lebanese capital including a vital target, but would not say what the target was.
The quick succession of blasts set off car alarms in central Beirut, kilometers from the southern neighborhood of Dahiyah, and sirens were heard. More, smaller explosions followed, then came a fifth powerful blast. There were no immediate reports of casualties.
Al-Jazeera television said 20 IAF rockets hit Dahiyah.
Earlier, IAF aircraft destroyed the Hizbullah Katyusha launcher that fired 16 rockets at Haifa less than an hour before, wounding 23 people. The strike was the latest in a series of IAF offensives against Hizbullah targets on Tuesday morning.
Maliki wondered if we were committed. Bush: he hear's all kinds of things from here (press)
Bush: Coalition forces will secure individual neighborhoods. (Please mean Sadr!)
President seems to be a little testy. Any stupid questions are going to get nuked today, I betcha.
Maliki very clear that he doesn't want American troops to leave until they can secure their country.
He has that no nonsense look in his eyes.
