An Israeli soldier avoids dust as a military helicopter prepares to land on the Israel-Lebanon border August 9, 2006 to evacuate troops injured in fighting in southern Lebanon.
Its all a ruse to allow the airtrain from the U.S. to resupply Israel's smart-bomb stockpile.
And those 1000 IDF troops coming out are on R and R.
LOL!!!!!!!
THANK YOU! I have felt so, SO discouraged ..worried..and MAD. I needed some perspective.
Still baffled..but 24 hour coverage isn't necessarily a good thing - it all takes time to unfold..and changes on the ground are why the military always has a gazillion "contingency" plans.
Adjust. Adapt.

Northern Command officer: IDF controls sec. strip
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Senior Northern Command officer Brig.-Gen. Alon Friedman said on Thursday that the IDF controlled the entire area between Rosh Hanikra and Ras Baide in the area that once constituted the security strip when Israel occupied southern Lebanon until 2000.
He told Israel Radio, that IDF troops enter the towns, which are mostly abandoned, to strike Hizbullah operatives, before leaving the towns again.
Brig.-Gen. Friedman asserted that there were hardly any rockets launched from areas under Israeli control, except an occasional sporadic launch. He stated that the rockets fired on Thursday were launched from sites north of the Litani River.

Sounds like the IDF is doing good, if you ask me...

US ambassador to UN: We're not playing games here
US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton said he did not think it was helpful to distract attention from negotiations over the US-French draft.
"We're not playing games here," said Bolton. "This is very serious."
Bolton said it was still possible that the council would be ready to vote Friday on the US-French proposal. (AP)

It would have been nice to know what he was responding to...
I'm beginning to get the feeling this whole plot is actually a ruse. Not by Brit, US and Pak authorities but by terrorists. Basically a diversion away from a different kind of attack and within iran's timeframe. We have actions going on in Israel to divert attention from iran. Something is just not right.
Remember a couple of nights ago, when a routine Israeli deployment became "a fullscale invasion of Lebanon" when Shep described it? Well, this is the imaginary retreat that matches the imaginary invasion.
Here's the sleazeball REUTER-ROOTER caption with that Correction notice:
