Want one that will get your blood boiling?
Found this comment on Huffington a few minutes ago on aposting showing Israeli Bomb camera footage......

"It's easy, mossad carried out the 9/11 attacks on behalf of israel, the world's only terrorist state. Hezbollah were just trying to help out their friends the palestinains from continued ethnic cleansing and genocide by zionists.

Lets just pray that the numbers even up with a ground invasion I can see a lot of jews dieing as they deserve to, god bless hamas & hezbollah"

I haven't been following this lately, but does someone have a map of how far the Israelis have advanced in Lebanon?

IDF preparing for ground operation in Tyre area

 

The Counterterrorism Blog has a good summary of yesterday's fighting, and an updated map:

IDF, Hezbollah battle over the "Hezbollah Capital"

[se_ohio_young_conservative]

another day of war,,

[daybreakcoming]

Good morning. I was just reading about the suit the Lebanese Americans are filing against our government. One amusing thing~~~~~~"It also asks that the court order Rice and Rumsfeld to seek a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah militia to enable US nationals to flee Lebanon, and to make better efforts to help them depart the country."

This lawyer should just go ahead and disbar himself. He's the kind that give the rest of them such a bad press.

I'm bummed. Haven't posted for a long time.

9/11

Suicide bombers - no effective defense/offense. IED's - no effective defense/offense.

Hezbollah/Hamas/Iran declare war on Israel (not new news there). No declaration of war in response. No apparent effective defense/offense (this time so far).

WMD in the hands of I wanna 72 virgins deranged non-human idiots.

Religion of Peace?

The only way out of this Islamofacism threat reminds me of a Star Trek convention "joke" I heard recently.

Good morning, Karl. Thanks for putting up the Daily Thread here.

[red meat conservative]

All the latest on the unfortunate casualty situation in northern Israel. They don't seem to have it under control. They are firing at will.

[RouxStir]

From Fox website: "U.S. Secretary of State is scheduled to meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas today as part of diplomatic mission to resolve armed conflict between Israel, Hezbollah and Hamas"

Rice needs to tell Abbas that the Pali's need to destroy Hamas or the US will give Israel "permission" to "clear cut" Gaza and the West Bank.
