I know this is a thread about Israel/Lebanon, but I found this article on another thread...and it, IMHO, is a real eye-opener..

It also may explain to some, their exasperation with the way WE, the USA has been fighting in Iraq.

He's in Italy and yes, he does. He met up with a friend in Rome, where proceeded to drink all the beer available in that city. Rome is now "dry" and so the Sofalad left in disgust for Naples...

I would quote from the FR Bible: "... Please enjoy our forum, but also please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, ..." but apparently your subtle wording got the message across;)

Why do the Turks, Egypt, Oman, Kuwait, and the UAE get shorted in your asessment? North Africa and the horn of Africa all are much more than bit players in this.

Thanks. I am not sure how to take the article...What is your take on it? Is it saying that the Aussies feel they have to keep controlling our behavior in Iraq?

It is a violation of FR protocol to post a private freepmail without the permission of the sender. If you do that, it is quite possible that the sender could report you and you might end up on suspension or banned.

In addition, dragging personal disagreements into this thread and getting others involved would not be helpful.

That is my opinion.

I think I'm going to get ready and go to Mass, and consider a prayer vigil tonight. I hear wickedness laughing.

My first thought, when reading the article was: The USA has the best military in the world..what the heck are we doing, giving red cards to the Australians..

My second thought was: If the Aussies played red cards against the USA going after Al-Zarqawi in Baghdad,...because they worried about collateral damage...they probably prolonged HIS time to behead people..and perhaps killed more Iraqis, than our bombs might have.

IOW..whoever agreed to that "red card" thingy...may be regretting it right now.

That is MY take...hoping for everyone else's.

I totally respect your opinion...but, hasn't Israel been doing all of that all along??

What about in 2000? That wasn't that long ago...9/11 happened since then, the bombs in the trains in London, Madrid, India...the WORLD is more aware of terrorism.

I think THIS is that time...and woe be to all of us if they don't take advantage...ONLY because the "next time" that you are talking about, could be a NUKE attack.

Certainly is eye opening, too bad only a few over here will actually get it. That we are at war with a bunch of brainwashed nut cases.

Did any of you see the interview that Fox had, right before the Beltway Boys...with the Time Magazine reporter in Lebanon??

He said that Hezbollah has AGREED with a ceasefire, witdrawal from the border..and putting in a UN mulitnational force, working within the structure of the Lebanese Army......and all they are asking is to "talk over the disagreements they have with Israel"????

Again, I expected some comments here...anyone see that?
