Wow, hipaa. I was just wondering if and when South America would wake up and realize it's time to take sides. And the side that *should* be may not be what it *would* be...

No, he is being inaccurate based on misinterpreting "information."

Jennifer Griffen and Trace Gallager reporting on FOX that the IDF is expanding ground ops.

Might as well finish what Hezbollah and Hamas started. To paraphrase Patton, why pay for the same ground twice?

Trace Gallagher is getting orgasmic over what additional fire power Hizbollah might have to do damage to Israel. He wonder if this won't just be a fight to a standstill, requiring a "diplomatic" solution.

They pant, they drool, they speculate.

Anything but wait for the news to actually HAPPEN.

I'm wondering what air time, if any, is devoted to speculation on the return of the captive Israeli soldiers, kidnapped so many days and weeks ago.

And how much of a factor this is for "diplomacy" in the minds of anyone but the Israelis.

They are threatening to attack deeper into Israel. The HezBSer's are playing a big mind-ops game. I'd like to wipe that smug look off their so called leader's face. Fox recently showed him and his ilk during his recent speech. I wonder if anyone knows the location of his speech.

This is really weird. On Pipeline, they are showing Israeli TV and it appears to be a soap opera playing now.
And, does anyone with the Pipe know why they are showing the San Francisco bridge traffic?

No, not at all, just speculating on how an International Force could be trusted, if it comes to pass.

How can the UN be trusted?

The UN can not be trusted. They are just another obstacle to work around like the DBM.

This has probably already been posted, but in case not:

(AP) -- Islamic Jihad says the head of its military wing in West Bank has been killed by Israeli troops.

Not because the US will step aside and force a cease fire, but because Muslim strength in supporting Hezbollah, and indirectly Iran and Syria, is increasing exponentially, because the Muslims have been starved for a victory since 1947, and the current situation gives every indication of being that victory for Islam.

I agree with you. Nearly every single military analyst has said that if Hezbollah comes out of this without being disarmed, it's a victory for the jihadists and will convince other moderates to join the cause.

Tony Blair said something quite similar to this yesterday, actually.
