The Talk Shows
Sunday, July 30th, 2006
Guests to be interviewed today on major television talk shows:
FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network): Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns; L. Paul Bremer, former head of the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq; Dr. Steven Rosenberg, chief surgeon at the National Cancer Institute.
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Israeli U.N. Ambassador Dan Gillerman; Lebanese special envoy Nouhad Mahmoud.
FACE THE NATION (CBS): Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Siniora; Israeli Vice Premier Shimon Peres.
THIS WEEK (ABC): Burns; Israeli Ambassador Daniel Ayalon; cyclist and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong.
LATE EDITION (CNN) : Burns; Syrian Cabinet Minister Bouthaina Shaaban; Sens. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.
Glad to see Gillerman laying on the line and calling out Hezbollah's likely use of these people as human shields. There has also been speculation the people in the building were relatives of terrorists.
Gillerman wouldn't be surprised if this was scheduled to coincide with Sec. Rice's appearance in Israel.
Thank you! You just made my morning much better!
honestly- being a FREEPER is one of my greatest traits!
MTP
Tim worried that Lebonese couldn't leave "because they didn't have cars" or ways out of the city.
[I'm surprised he didn't relate it to the people in the Superdome in N.O. after Katrina hit. lol.]
The warped cowardly terrorist hide behind their own women and children while they attack.
&&&&&
If the attack that killed so many women and children was truly far from a military target, then it is not beyond possibility that the Hezzies infiltrated, or got bad intel to the Israeli forces somehow, telling them that it was a rich target. We know that women and children mean nothing to the Hezzies. I can imagine them setting up this building, to create a Beslan-type reaction from the "world".
Gillerman clarifies that saying "totally eliminating Hezbollah" means totally disarmed.
EXACTLY!!!!
AMEN!

I'm glad Gillerman is holding the line. He stated it beautifully when he said every civilian death on the Lebanese side is a mistake and a tragedy for Israel. Every Israeli death is considered a victory for Hezbollah.
BTW- just to give credit where credit is due--
I GOT THE LINK TO THE MOVIE FROM ALIVERITAS!
SHE ROCKS!
Gillerman is unshakeable. Of course he has truth on his side. Reminds us that Israel is doing this dirty work for the rest of the civilized world.
Brilliant post here Peach and thanks again so much for everything you do each week. As most of us are waiting for MTP to come on we already know what will happen due to your great analysis and reporting, much appreciated.
I know I shouldn't be surprised but I am always amazed at how the MSM/DBM can always slant even wars just to politically benefit the DNC and their masters.
IT never fails to amaze me how they can be so loyal to such a power/hungry, stand-for-nothing political party.
In WWII, we did not have that option on either side. From the reporting of today, only Fox seems to be talking about how the Israelis are warning citizens BEFORE they bomb an area. They have strong rooms in homes for the SAFETY of their citizens. They don't use innocents as human shields.
Even Greg Palkot was talking about all of the children killed, but mentioning that the Israelis always warned civilians before bombing an area.
That may be the PC way to fight a war, but isn't that also telling your enemy that THEY need to leave the area, too?
What a joke....like hatred for Israel in the area ever subsided.
This is the most foolish moral equivalency posed by Russert; he asked the Israeli ambassador if the Israeli campaign against Hezbollah is turning Christian Lebanese people against Israel because, as a reporter said: "no one likes to be bombed."
Imagine asking that question of the US ambassador as we bombed Japanese cities.
Timmy says, in essence, you defended yourself and now everyone hates you even more. Gillerman: what would you have us do when they kidnap our soldiers, etc. Points out that they raise their children to hate Israelis. Doesn't matter much what they do. Gillerman is just doing a wonderful job of explaining the situation.
He is an extraordinary man. I'm working n lurking this morning...is Timmy trying to get under Gillerman's skin?
Of course... I bet we hear quagmire again too. This time it will be targeted at the Israeli incursion.
That, and he's also trying to be sure that the anti-Israeli line gets out on the air.
