Probably like those...they didn't show them..Greg Burke just mentioned them.

I am really glad that Condi cancelled her trip to Beirut..I would fear for her safety.

We've all been hearing about this disastrous event. But the pregnant question is: Who were all these women and children killed in the attack? Were they Hezbollah's own or were they Marionites or others not affiliated with Hezbollah?

Sacrificial lambs on the altar of propaganda.

These jerks are very slick with their PR campaign of LIES. Guess they are putting all those millions and millions of dollars they get from Iran to use.

I think a lot of freepers forget that she is a diplomat by position...and is in a very dangerous part of the world.

Like sofaman keeps reminding me...don't listen to their words..watch what is done.

I am sure she is saying what she feels is necessary until she can get with Bush and Bolton to figure out how to go forward...the fact that Olmert is STILL insisting on having a few more weeks..tells me that Israel isn't planning on putting their tail between their legs...like Sheppy wanted to accuse them of.

"These staged events are getting a little old and boring."

Agree. The Muslims look like pathetic fools. How do you gauge their outrage over the death of children when they showed the same outrage over cartoons?

Palestinians Storm U.N. Compound In Gaza City http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/07/30/AR2006073000294.html

Palestinian protesters stormed the U.N. compound in Gaza City on Sunday during a protest against Israel’s bombing of a building in southern Lebanon that killed around 60 people, witnesses and U.N. staff said.

Hundreds of members of Islamic Jihad militant group, some throwing stones and others firing rounds from assault rifles, attacked the compound at the end of a rally, witnesses said.

At least two people were wounded.

U.N. staff were inside the compound at the time, but managed to escape, a U.N. official said. He said the site, which includes scores of buildings, was heavily ransacked by the demonstrators.

Witnesses said U.N. guards appeared to set off tear gas grenades to allow staff time to get away.

“The situation is very tense,” the U.N. official said.

Members of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s special guard arrived shortly afterwards and managed to disperse some of the crowd by firing into the air.

Gunfire could be heard from within the compound but it was not clear who was firing at whom, witnesses said.

The attack came hours after a violent assault by Lebanese demonstrators against the U.N. headquarters in Beirut.

Witnesses said extensive damage had been caused to the United Nations’s Gaza compound, from where it directs its relief and aid operations for the whole of the Gaza Strip.

Note to self: Seems deliberate, but disproportional? /s

120 Rockets Fall on Sunday

As the world shifts into high gear to condem Israel for the deaths at Qana. 120 rockets fall on Israel on Sunday, we must not forget why Israel has been forced to fight.

This is going to be the second most important war in Israels history, because it is setting the stage for the future of the whole war on Islamic terror.

Israel has video that shows rockets being fired from the apartment building that the IAF bombed.

Condi says we want a ceasefire asap...but the parties have to agree to it. So THERE! She's reminding peep conditions have to be met for a ceasefire to occur..

What madness we live with...all this uproar- clamoring for a ceasefire that Hizz doesn't want for one minute and that Israel can't afford.

Yo- Trace Gallagher: STFU.
