Jennifer's report is lagging behind. Don't worry yet.

I'm watching Tony, Peach, and I find him subdued. He's not so smily.

I'm tempted to chalk it up to knowing too much about what's *really* happening in the world this week.

It's hard to be objective, seeing as we're all (excuse me) on pins and needles.

Thanks for the pings, transcriptions and commentary everyone. :-)

I'm really leaving this time for a while (LOL), but when I get back, I want a full explanation about your tagline. I have my own ideas and they're probably sinful :-)

I've finally got a villa in Riyadh. I moved in early June and was there for about three weeks. Unfortunately, just when I was getting comfortable, I had to fly back to Dubai for a few weeks. In between my Saudi visa expired so I'm hanging out on the Left Coast until I receive a new one.

The villa in Riyadh has Fox News, so I'll be freed of CNN/World---the politically-correct leader in television news.

This Hershowitz article that you posted, "What if Lebanon's army joins Hizbullah?" gives some credence to the idea of incorporating the Hezb. militia with the Lebanese Army. I think the reasoning behind that idea is that it would remove the government's ability to deny their responsibility and complicity for/with Hezb. Take away the Hezb. militia (in name) and what do you have? The Lebanese Army. Period. For which the Lebanese govt. is responsible. Thereafter, any attacks or incursions that are made against/into Israel would be the direct fault/action of the government. This has the effect of causing Lebanon to either formally declare their intentions against Israel or to be responsible and stop stirring the pot.

There is censorship till the operation is over - so we have to wait - and the operation could be lots more complicated that one hospital in Baalbeck

Exactly.
