The wife and father of kidnapped Israeli soldier Ehud Goldwasser, Karnit, holding a wedding photograph, and Shlomo Goldwasser arrive at Heathrow Airport in London, Monday July 31, 2006. Hezbollah kidnapped two Israeli soldiers on July 12, triggering an Israeli offensive against Lebanon that has killed hundreds of people, mostly civilians.

Watched FOXNEWS (et al) lately??
Even with the little bit of OT and/or crosstalk here, we're still orders of magnitude better than any other source....
jmo
FoxNews Alert audio crashed and burned.
lol
Even E.D. had this strange 'what happened?' look on her face.
===
The FoxNews Alert audio started, then it seemed to crash. No 'alert' followed, as they went to commercial.
Interesting to see that, from the blurb you posted, Carter doesn't mention that Hezbollah also rejected a cease fire.
Not that I expect Carter to let the facts get in the way of his agenda.
Never forget the hospitality france provided the ayatollah khomeni while he was in exile from iran.
Judge Hatter? Mad Hatter!
I'm not against OT and crosstalk, but this thread will soon be 300+, that means that many of the readers will skip many "pages" of the thread and go to the last posted, they will thus not be able to read some important posts.
In a few hours it will be 800+
Naturally, this post is not important as it is off-topic. ;-)
It's impossible to be a live thread and not go OT. We're almost living on this thread and we will talk. Wishing it were otherwise just denies the human reality of it.

Yeah...and how in the world would we have learned about the missing crown, who's a new grandma, etc..
I love you guyz!!! ;^)
Just heard two more explosions here. It's been a rough day ruond here, after a few days of relative calm.
I am not surprised...Prayers for your safety...
A lot of us are hear, scanning the news, seeing what's happening, sharing, most of our waking hours. If we couldn't interact, we would go crazy. We are not a news ticker. We are a live thread.
Hugs..Stay safe, Allegra.

It makes me so happy to know toy guns are being taken from the hands of our children and they are learning about the importance of diversity and self-esteem.
