Hi, I wasn't ignoring your post...I was just reading the thread to see if anyone else answered your question.
As far as the ME is concerned...there is a lot of confusion over what IS happening.
There have been bulletins about how the Israelis are pulling troops out of Lebanon in preparation of accepting the UN resolution.
At the same time, the Lebanese and the Hezzies are saying NO WAY to the resolution.
Here on the thread, those of us that were on...were livid that the Israelis seem to be surrendering.
The Russians came out asking for a 72 hour truce for Humanitarian reasons...LOL
Then this evening bombs were falling in Beirut.
So...now we are all either sniping at each other out of frustration..or we are discussing the finer points of peeps.
Good summation. I also learned something tonight. I never liked peeps, but I love burnt marshmallows. Don't know why I never thought of roasting the darned things.
Thank you so much!!
