not me. I think terrorism is related. I'm hoping that the airplane plot takes some of the scrutiny off Israel so they can get some things accomplished today...

"14:40 UK says main players in bomb plot are in custody (Reuters)"

I hope they pull some fingernails.

Just to save them the bother of getting manicures, of course.

Greg Jarrett on Fox said a rocket attack just happened in Haifa with casualties..

NOW, can someone tell my why Olmert is sitting on his hands??

Actually, if I were Israel...I would go full bore TODAY..the world's attention is on London...and it will also tie up Iran's attention to this still..instead of planning it's dastardly deeds..

KAC, do you have Olmert's phone number?

It looks like Nasrallah carried thru with his threat against Haifa. Yesterday, he told the arab cits to leave immediately.

"We stayed there for a night, but in the morning there was a strike on the home. We don't know who was shooting. A few seconds after the first strike, there was another precise hit inside the house.

Gosh...friendly fire maybe?

For some reason the fear of flying has gotten worse as I get older. Maybe it has to do with the pilots looking like they are about my son's age. HA!

I'm not especially afraid of flying, but I notice that as I get older, I'm more afraid of more things...just a big wuss! My daughter, son-in-law, and g-grandson are flying from Albuquerque to Alaska TODAY! If it were up to me, I would cancel their flight until further notice!

In any case, praying hard.

Martin Frost, acck!

Anyone listen to John Batchelor last night? He did a roll call of nationalities fighing along side hezbeetles; chechyns, arabs, yemenis, iraqis, iranians. Did I miss any? Why Olmert is dicking around with these people is beyond me? When is Bibi going to hand him a fudgesickle and tell him to go sit in a corner while the adults do the work.

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."
...Ann Coulter, 2001 in article remembering Barbara Olson.

It was true in 01 and it's just as true today.

By doing that...the terrorist has won. (IMO)

I would give them that small victory, to have my family safe and in one piece! My ideology doesn't outweigh my common sense.
