Bush has the right idea - but unfortunately may have chosen the wrong proxy for our side in Olmert.

Why would military sources give away tactical plans to Jennifer Griffen? Did you just hear the plans?

I was thinking the same think last night...that all of these "congratulations" of Britain and the USA intelligence agencies MIGHT be a bit premature...and we better be at least aware that an attack still might happen soon.

" Breaking News
U.S. Will Vote for U.N. Resolution That Israel Opposes, FNC Reports "

Anybody have a count of how many times the U.S. has voted on a U.N. Resolution that Israel opposed? It's probably not a small number.

On the other hand, one wishes we had the big mirrors up in orbit to send concentrated sunlight down for energy, and a couple extras for other purposes...

ok..this rueters article says the text calls for a " eventual" withdrawl not right away.....hezbollah rejected something like that earlier

UNITED NATIONS - France and the United States reached a deal Friday on a final draft resolution aimed at ending the monthlong conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, and said the U.N. Security Council would vote on the text later in the day.

Britain's U.N. Ambassador Emyr Jones-Parry said the resolution would give a U.N. force in Lebanon an enhanced mandate to help coordinate the eventual withdrawal of Israeli troops

Hello! I am totally confused right now... is the war still on? Or is it still off??? I've tried reading thru all the posts since early this a.m., but I can't figure out what's happening at this moment! FOX is saying Israeli troops are being helicopter'ed in to Litani?? U.S. supposed to vote yes on the UN resolution, but Israel is against it? Is it me, or is everyone as confused as me??????? LOL

Playing armchair general, that could serve to cut resupply lines from northern Lebanon, as well as provide positions for a pincer movement on hostile towns with units converging from both North and South.

I agree. There is something extremely dangerous afoot right now. And it is wait to come to a zenith. I'm not sure if it is based on the August 22nd date or not, but that really doesn't matter. There is a lot of suspicious activity going on. We can only hope that we can catch them all.

In the mean time as we alway do, keep your eyes open. No place is exempt.

War is on despite vote on UN resolution this afternoon. Olmert told Condi how they would attack Hezbollah forces. IDF plans major tactical changes.
