"We gotta get rid of the ban on assasinations. It would be a whole lot cheaper to take care of some of these "problems" with a few hundred grains of lead."
Agree.

I hope those commandos can feel the thousands of prayers going up for them tonight, regardless of where they are.
And many thanks to your son.

FReepers are more informed than most people, because we want to be and focus on it. Most talking heads only care about what's news now.

,,,but it was the most level reporting I've seen him give...
After reporting lies continuously for weeks, eventually only bits of the truth remain unspoken.

I won't take the thread any more off-topic, but trust me, that is a bad picture.

"please pray for the IDF tonight. Soldiers everywhere who fight for freedom are thinking of them tonight."
God, is there anything more heart-wrenching than seeing a soldier pray. Wow, just wow.
To: SE Mom
Your son's words made my eyes burn. Please assure him that our hearts and prayers are with all who go forth to challenge this evil scourge in the world.
And especially this....."Soldiers everywhere who fight for freedom are thinking of them tonight.

Here's hoping it will turn out to be a repeat of Entebbe.

Jennifer reporting: Eyewitnesses tell her that a dozen helicopters seen hovering, then commandos got out, went into a hospital in Baalbek hospital and now they have word Israeli soldiers are trapped.Crap. Hope it's an older report. Come on John -- give us an update.

I recall rumblings about this in Congress shortly after 9-11, but nothing since. In the meantime I guess we can all thank Frank Church for his witch hunt and Gerald Ford for signing the law.
To: RDTF
I am going to lay on the couch and watch the news. Five o'clock comes early, esoecially when grandkids will be here tomorrow.Good night!
