These people need to learn how to construct a group of words in such a way as to actually MEAN what they seem to WANT to say.

It is often not so easy. Duty and survival, at rare times, do collide.

"In for a penny, in for a pound".

When those moments of choice find us, and challenge our very core beliefs - it is the essence of life.

I never fault a man for his choice when he comes to the fault.

Some stand and die for naught, some "redeploy" and live to see beauty and life, and some freeze - unable to make that most rudimentary of decisions.

Men stand and die for many causes and under many flags.

Our relationship with God has always been centered upon our ability to make that choice.

Right or wrong these diverse men stood their ground in the face of Hell.

God rest their souls and give grace to their families.




I'm but the son my mother bore,
A simple man, and nothing more.
But-God of strength and gentleness,
Be pleased to make me nothing less.

Help me, O God, when Death is near
To mock the haggard face of fear,
That when I fall-if fall I must-
My soul may triumph in the Dust.

Why the hell is the UN keeping it's men right in the middle of a serious shooting war? Why is the UN allowing its "observers" to serve as human shields for the Hizb'Allah?

PM (Harper) wants to know why UN post manned (he doubts Israel did it on purpose)

Supports Israel's claim that they didn't target the UN observers. They targeted the Hizbollah terrorists 10 feet away.

promised an "open war", they meant they'd surround themselves with fewer civilians, but added UN personnel

good point. war is being redefined. also, promise is not in the vocabulary.

Pretty much what I suspected. May G-d bless the poor UN schmucks, and may the Hezzies burn extra-hot for this.

You guys do know that there were and may still be U.S. troops on on U.N. peace keeping and observer missions, right? What if they were U.S. troops?

If they had been US Troops they wouldn't have let Hizbolla set up right next to them.

Just trust me on this one.

Reading an article in the Doctors waiting room about a famous Psychiatrist in Zurich in which he said as an explanation of a question, that Kofi, if he was observed on a patience bases, my immediate reaction would be, a chronic drug habit, but being who he is, that would be impossible, would it not?

Is this getting into the headlines anywhere in the mainstream yet? This needs to be front page news everywhere, and Kofi Anan should not be allowed to just back away from his earlier statements.

This is not a small local skirmish for Israel, this is a world war. Vermin like Hezbollah, Hamas, Al Qaeda and others are being funded by Islamic goverments, and used for their agenda - spreading Islamic rule worldwide.

Iran, Sryia - your fingerprints are all over this.

Sixty years ago, we would have wiped out nations for less. Why are we sitting on our hands?

Bush was re-elected because he showed strength and resolve in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's time to follow through - invade Syria and Iran NOW.

"The UN's flaccidity in dealing with Islamic terror was glaringly demonstrated when for 11 months it vehemently denied the existence of a videotape of Hezbollah's abduction of three Israeli soldiers. When the cover-up was eventually exposed, the UN, under pressure, made available a heavily edited tape in which the terrorists were protected by blurring their faces."
