They may have drawn a lot of the indians south leaving an opening to come in with the Air Cavalry, which it seems they've done. Frustrating that the Izzies do so much on the qt, never know what is going on, but I like it.

I'm not sure if Israel wants this war contained. And from the public statements of our Administration, I don't think they want it contained either. It would seem we must be ready for war with Iran and Syria.

Don't think so. I recently read here that Syria was giving out the WMD's especially since this conflict with Israel started. Syria had originally kept all the nuke stuff. Syria was paid $30,000,000 from Saddamn to hide the WMD's.

Lets get it on. For us, war now is always less costly than war later.

Israel reportedly hits new targets
The Israeli military engaged in fierce fighting today with Hezbollah forces just across the border with Lebanon, and the Lebanese Army reports Israeli aircraft struck targets near the northeastern Lebanese town of Baalbeck, near the Syrian border.

A hit-and-run raid? A hit on Nasrallah? A snatch-and-grab to get the kidnapped soldiers back?

Not that I know anything, but my first thought was that it was your last option. In any case, praying for Israeli success. Go IDF!!

Baalbeck is in eastern Lebanon northeast of Beirut. In the mid-1970s the city became a stronghold of Palestinian and Syrian forces, changing hands several times during Lebanon's 15-year civil war.

The Syrians have a serious exposure problem - the US is deployed right behind them in Iraq.

It's interesting, I expect Israel will never have a better chance to pull this off, with Syria between a rock and a hard place.

Tell the IDF to start looking for Saddam's WMD!

Ya know....it all makes sense. What Rush mentioned....that there is more to this than we realize.
