Although quick success is less attainable under the original reliance on air power, nevertheless the bombing campaign enables a swifter move to the Litani, hopefully providing the larger footprint needed to get international compliance in moving in an international force with real teeth and real bullets.

One may hope the thwarted bombers all had plane tickets for 8/22 and that Iran doesn't have a backup plan to celebrate that day. I don't know if this was what the mullahs had planned, but we can hope we're ahead for once. I'd much prefer this to a nuke.

That type of attack, exploding planes over US cities releasing nerve agents, would correlate with the Mahdi scripture that states 'the sky will turn fire' or 'be filled with fire'. That Mahdi related scripture then states there will be a lot of 'dead bodies all over the place'.

If a massive nerve agent attack was planned for Aug 22 it means this was directed by Iran. I think Iran just passed the threshold set down for the use of nuclear weapons. Frankly I do not see any alternative to a massive attack on the big three terrorist states. I would expect Israel to suddenly stop the push into Lebanon to prepare for a massive, maybe nuclear attack on Syria and Iran.

From the Wallace interview with nutjob:

Speaking about President Bush's failure to answer his 18-page letter that criticized U.S. foreign policy, Ahmadinejad said, "Well, (with the letter) I wanted to open a window towards the light for the president so that he can see that one can look on the world through a different perspective. … We are all free to choose. But please give him this message, sir: Those who refuse to accept an invitation will not have a good ending or fate. You see that his approval rating is dropping every day. Hatred vis-à-vis the president is increasing every day around the world. For a ruler, this is the worst message that he could receive. Rulers and heads of government at the end of their office must leave the office holding their heads high."

22nd August.

This is a date that has been much discussed as a big deal day by many people who follow the islamic terrorist mindset- it is also the day that MadMood told the president he would have his answer for him regarding Iran's nukes...

mind boggling morning..

Found this on DEBKA.....tell me it is not true..

While the expanded Israeli ground offensive up to the Litani River and beyond was officially put on hold for 48 hours Thursday to allow diplomacy to kick in

Olmert has given the enemy 48 hours to get ready....oh god.

" Is this true? "

Hard to tell whats true in this mess. Too many rumors.

I hope it's not a pause, its imperative to win this war and any sign of weakness or lack of resovle will cost us all lives ( military & civilian )
