(Communicated by IDF Spokesman)
Over the past day, IDF infantry, armored and engineering forces operated in southern Lebanon. The forces positioned themselves in the areas of Mis el Jabal, Mahibab Blida, Shihin, Rajmil and Majdal Zun, in the eastern part of southern Lebanon. At the same time, IDF forces established positions in the villages of Al Teibeh, Al Adeisa, Rab A-Tiltin, Aita a-Shaab and Maroun A-Ras and Bint Jbeil.
Yesterday evening an IDF soldier was killed and four more were wounded in exchanges of fire in the village of Aita A-Shaab. An IDF soldier was severely wounded and two soldiers were lightly wounded in the village of Mahbib.
In fighting throughout the day, IDF forces killed approximately 35 armed Hizbullah terrorists, and wounded numerous other Hizbullah terrorists.
In the area of Bint Jbeil, IDF forces identified and destroyed a vehicle carrying a Hizbullah missile launcher. Additional weapons were discovered by the force, including 10 assault rifles in the area around the village of Sheihin.
During the night the IDF carried out more than 120 aerial attacks in Lebanon:
6 missile launchers, including launchers used for long-range attacks against Afula and Haifa.
35 Hizbullah buildings, storage facilities and headquarters
Areas used to launch rocket into Israel, and roads and bridges leading to those areas.
A vehicle identified transporting weapons.
What ever happened to bi-cycles? Everyone has to have a car these days.
I live in the second largest city in Calif., San Diego
Worked many yrs as an administrator and accountant, and many yrs. as a legal support with the county attys.
Never owned a car. Walk, take buses and I am disabled on top of it.
Many people have cars because they think they have to have them.
Does a bi-cycle go both ways?
LOL!
Go back to Step 2!
:)
That's still not the right one, but thanks for that idea! That is such a moving piece of music isn't it?
I keep trying to convince my husband that doing the two step won't kill him....sigh.
We'll keep our eyes open - but what's more I'm sure the IDF is doing that. Another "hospital" raid if it is true, maybe.
I used to spend the summer on Harbor Island! I really miss that area. I hear they closed Old Town!?! :-(
When I lived in New Orleans, never had a car.
Moved to TX and I did need one...no public transportation where I lived.

Old Town still a tourist area only under new contractors.
In the past few yrs. several dozen hirise condos up to 42 stories high have been built downtown along with the new ballpark for the Padres.
Good Night 4. Sleep well.
You've just about made it to the new thread.

Here is a link to an article that puts the whole conflict in perspective. It is a long read, but DEFINITELY worth the read:
