The Arab version of "vogueing". It's all about face.

One can always wonder....

...but apart from that it did contain some interesting info that tallies with info from other sources. For instance it seems that the rocketeers don't fire at will but get orders to fire from the "leaders" somehow. If that's true then that ought to be a weak link that could be targeted in one way or another.

Actually the poll was taken in April of 2005. The mindset that would approve of armed terrorists running freely through out their neighborhoods, is rather scary. Several different reports on the MSM gives credit to the Hezbulla for building schools, hospitals and etc.

Some even stated without Hezbulla, Israel would take them over. They seemed to view the terrorists as knights in shining armor or protectors. Even Fox has gone out of it's way to interview people who would fight to the death for the terrorists. Are they brainwashed, or what? I think Hezbulla even has it's own media, which is probably for the purpose of the pumping out of pure hate and propaganda. I sincerely hope those who support the terrorists stayed in Lebanon and did not flee to America, bringing their baggage of hate with them.

I'm not quite sure what you are referring to. If it is the same statement I saw some 10 hours ago - late night (!) - I thought it was pretty ambiguous. The threat could have been directed against Israel, but also against Hezbollah/Syria/Iran.

And among all that flowery language it did not contain a direct threat by Saudi to get involved.

But as I said, it was late, I might have misread it, or there may be yet another statement...

From the Saudi Press Agency:

"THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA CALLS ON ALL TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH HONEST, CONSCIOUS AND INTERNATIONAL MORAL AND HUMANITARIAN LAWS. IT ALSO WARNS ALL THAT IF THE PEACE OPTION IS REJECTED DUE TO THE ISRAELI ARROGANCE THEN ONLY THE WAR OPTION REMAINS AND NO ONE KNOWS THE REPERCUSSIONS BEFALLING THE REGION, INCLUDING WARS AND CONFLICT THAT WILL SPARE NO ONE INCLUDING THOSE WHOSE MILITARY POWER IS NOW TEMPTING THEM TO PLAY WITH FIRE."

I don't trust anything I read, and yes, the language is ambiguous, but everything in this conflict bears investigation.

At least from my vantage point, it does.

The new documentary "Obsession" shows how brainwashed the children are.

When one weeds a garden, does one overlook the smallest of them in the hope they may grow into flowers?

I wish I were there fighting those bastards with them.

I like your spirit!

After 9/11 I really wanted to join up and do something, though as an overweight middle-aged housewife who was never really good in gym, I didn't know how much I could contribute. :)

You had a great post! :)

LOL, I was thinking the same thing. Of course, in my case it's due to an insomniac "sleep break" and I was thinking of going back to bed, but no matter. :)

Congratulations! :)

So did I.

And when I saw Ground Zero in NYC in March of '02, I wanted to be in a plane over Afghanistan with my finger on the bomb-dropping button.

I think Israel has imported too many dim/libs. We thought they would help us win the war, but if they pull out without a decisive victory over the hezzies, look for a car bomb near you.
