In response to the thread your shared. Here's an interest source and comment from it:

WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration, in a secret policy review completed early this year, has ordered the Pentagon to draft contingency plans for the use of nuclear weapons against at least seven countries, naming not only Russia and the "axis of evil"--Iraq, Iran, and North Korea--but also China, Libya and Syria.

The graffiti translates: Hezbollah Militia Combat Cam & Concealment Training Centre. The torn billposter is about a Schick/Gillette shop closing down sale.

Economical; but I'd equally settle for the "Bonnie and Clyde" treatment.

Kaplinsky named Halutz's rep. in North

By YAAKOV KATZ AND JPOST.COM STAFF


On the eve of a long-awaited ground incursion deep into Lebanon intended to stop the incessant Katyusha rocket attacks once and for all, Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Dan Halutz decided Tuesday to sideline OC Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam and appointed Deputy Chief of General Staff Maj.-Gen. Moshe Kaplinsky as his personal representative in the North.

Adam expressed displeasure with Halutz's decision but said in television interviews aired Wednesday that it was perfectly legitimate to appoint a senior officer, especially a deputy chief of General Staff, to assist the commander of a front in time of war. Senior officers close to Adam, however, said he was "shocked and insulted" by Halutz's decision to appoint Kaplinsky to coordinate land, sea and air operations in Lebanon.

The northern part of the state is doing fine. I have friends in the Shreveport area and it's a whole different culture there than NO/Baton Rouge.
