Mourners carry the coffins of Israeli Arabs Hanna Hamam, 62, and Ladida Mazzawi, 67, who were killed Sunday night in a Hezbollah rocket attack, during their funeral in the city of Haifa, northern Israel, Monday, Aug. 7, 2006. Hezbollah fired its deadliest rocket barrage Sunday on Israel, killing 12 Israeli reservists and three civilians. That brought the Israeli death toll to 94, including 46 soldiers, the 12 reservists and 36 civilians.

Seems that 3 Jews were detained and held at the Fiji airport, then deported.

So that's how I stop my 4 1/2 month old kitten from jumping up on my desk, purposely pushing all my papers onto the floor, putting her nose into my drink and walking across my keyboard causing all forms of screen movement. A squirt gun...who knew?!

Did they point out the UN were fixing the roads by any chance? Nevermind.

Believe me. It works. My cat has already had it pointed at him twice for dancing on the keyboard and bringing up both my printer and my scanner. I didn't even have to squirt. I just picked up the gun. He took one look and amscrayed outta here.

Why is Hezbollah attacking Israel? It is not attacking it for any demonstrable grievance. It is attacking it, so says it's chief Nasrallah, to eliminate the state of Israel - pure and simple.

Netanyahu to Mark Colvin

This needs to be put up on bulletin boards, billboards and plastered all over the UN, and right between Annan's eyes.

(IsraelNN.com) The day after it was revealed that a Reuters News Agency doctored photographs to show an anti-Israel bias, the news service incorrectly reported Tuesday afternoon that the IDF bombed a funeral procession in Lebanon.

Reuters has corrected without apology its earlier story that the IDF strafed a funeral procession and updated the report to state that the bombs struck a village at the same time the funeral was taking place, adding that "the air strike was not in the immediate vicinity of the funeral."

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Dan Haltuz has decided to appoint deputy chief of staff Maj.-Gen. Moshe Kaplinski as his representative in the Northern Command for the duration of the war.

The reason behind the decision was not immediately clear. It may be connected to the planned cabinet meeting on Wednesday and the possible approval of a massive expansion of the ground operation up to the Linati River or even further north.

OC Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam has to respond to the decision.

Thanks...and here I was considering feeding her to one of my two labs. My 135lb chocolate lab keeps licking his chops everytime he sees her. Of course, he's 135 lbs. of wuss, so all she has to do is swat at him with one of her 6 oz. paws and he backs off.

Someone better tell FOX because Gretchen Carlson just reported the same thing.
