We will see how much self control Hezbullah has and how much control it has over its forces. My guess is they won't launch.

Mostly I was trying to offer you some comfort and advice, actually...cause I keep bubbling up, too...and when I catch it, I back down. We're all very worried and care a great deal...and I pray that none of us get into self-destruct crash and burn mode.

I noticed in all of Greg Palkot's spots today..he looked straight into the camera...very little, if any, change in facial expressions...

That is not normal for him...he is the type that points, explains, and uses different inflections in his voice when giving his reports.

I thought they were odd....I don't know if anyone else noticed.

If the IDF is denying an airstrike in Syria, somebody must be claiming that there was one - correct? Nobody just issues a random denial in a vacuum. I'm curious who Israel is responding to with their denial (and, of course, what is the underlying event).

I want to be real careful here. There were reports of quite a bit of fighting very early Sunday morning, and those got shoved to the side with all the whining about Qana and subsequent riots.

I was just dandy with all that, for a lot of reasons.

I have a pretty good idea of what's going on, of why Stratfor and others are not in agreement as to units involved, where, and most likely what, if any, objectives IDF is trying to attain in fighting that may or may not still be going on, but...


Not only would it take about half an hour to explain all that, but in addition, I don't think I can without getting into areas best left alone for now.

If you have a specific question, I might be able to answer it, but if it's the one I already answered, I just want to leave it at that.

Just a little more confusion, like we don't have enough of that already, ok?

I understand. I had the same reaction.

Oh, yeah, they also showed "humanitarian" people in a bunker somewhere (or somebody's basement, anyway) filling up plastic bag after plastic bag with beans and sealing them into boxes, like maybe 24-36 sacks per box.

(Well, the only box they actually showed being sealed up was being done by a guy slapping some duct tape along the top and it was torn where it should have sealed. Had they really thrown the box on a truck, it would have come right open and spilled everything.)

They were lamenting how all of this would go to waste because there was no safe way to get the food to people who needed it (I assume that means elsewhere in Lebanon, more south) because of the evil Israeli bombings.

Yep. I hope the Hezbullies were so stupid to come out in the open. It would make for a target-rich environment!

And then there's the creative art work that goes into it... needs to be sketched out, etc.... probably done on computer?

"FOX Radio now reporting that Israel will resume air ops immediately if Hezzbobs launch Katyushas. "

Thanks for info.

IDF: Strikes in eastern Lebanon carried out before ceasefire




Israel Defense Forces officials said that the Israel Air Force strikes in eastern Lebanon were carried out at around midnight, before the announcement on the suspension of air strikes.


In any case, they added, striking targets which constitute a threat for Israel will continue. (Ynet)

The best thing about the video is the army and air force girls! :)

I want to repeat that last from Ynet:
