so then if they do launch rockets into Israel and Israel bombs them in leb..would that be "offensive" or "defensive"

I will have to listen again, but I think I heard the French ambassador say there is no enforcement language in the resolution. "you have to trust". Sounds good to me. Unbelievable. Not even trust but verify, just trust.

kissing cousins at least!

Anthony Weiner on with Wolf...he has been at the border with the IDF forces...and he says he can't believe that Israel would agree with the resolution..since the tens of thousands of rockets would still be in Lebanon...

Now..Wolf getting into the Rep v. Dem analysis...I just don't see this as a R v.D thing.

He said the first words in the resolution acknowledges that resolution 1559 and another one have FAILED...so what does that say for yet another resolution??

No enforcement? That means everybody can do what they want, and it's worth the paper it's written on....if that.

< Peter King and Ed Koch..sounded as though they were supporting Israel..but they weren't. (That's just my opinion) >

Wow! I listened carefully to both interviews and have the opposite view, especially Koch. He also was gung ho for President Bush. JMHO, too.

No evidence of US-based threat, Chertoff says





Investigators have uncovered no signs of US-based terrorists linked to a plot to blow up airliners headed to the United States, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said Friday.



"Currently, we do not have evidence that there was, as part of this plot, any plan to initiate activity inside the United States or that the plotting was done in the United States," Chertoff said, a day after British authorities announced the arrests of two dozen suspects. (AP)

And the demands are placed on Israel but not on Hezbollah. If I was Israel, I'd tell the French what they can do with their resolution - crumple it up and throw it away. Its a waste of ink!

Fox reports Israel bombs two transformers, cutting power to Tyre. Also reports that helicopters will be used in offensive....interesting.

They say that Europe has lost its religious faith.

I disagree.

Jesus and the the Virgin Mary has just been replaced by "dialogue", the UN and Karl Marx.

I wasn't clear..sorry. What I should have said is that while Koch and King both sounded very supportive of Israel- they have decided to go with the diplomacy/UN route- which to ME- is selling Israel out. Just depends on perspective. I do think King and Koch truly DO want the best for Israel- I think they are mistaken in what that is.

I have listened to a lot of talking heads today- the only one who REALLY gets it that I heard was Kissinger.
