I am listening to the Greek lady...and she, like the others sounds so pompous, condescending...and WAY to uppity!

These people make me sick...

BTW, I guess it wouldn't do any good to contact our Congresscritters to tell them NOT to vote to fund any Lebanon repairs, would it???

Lebanon has already said that they are going to take Israel to the World Court for $$$$ for damages to Lebanon in this war. I read that at the beginning of this war.

If the polls taken in Lebanon were indeed even semi-accurate that the Lebanese people fully supported the Hez, and most likely still fully support them, the US will now be in the business of FUNDING TERRORISTS. Do they take us for dupes about this or something? Do they think we don't get the picture that the Hez will take this rebuilding money and fund themselves for more of their fun and games?!? I'm sure Kofi can give them some really good hints about how to do this.

The 'after vote' speech by the representative from Qatar. Felt it gave everything to Israel. Go Figure.

ugh....WHY?? Will Israel get a huge payment also?? I think I have to just give up. The Israeli people will have to find the gumption to save themselves. If they want to.

Yes but Bush should as a leader state that he is for the defeat of Hezbollah at all costs or the bigger fight against islamoterror is a farce.

You mean fight to the last drop of Israeli blood? Don't be an id'jut, unless you were prepared to move American troops to support Israel.

I owe you an apology on my comment. I was being a wiseguy and did a "Hank Hillism". Please accept my apology.

From Yoni's blog

Email From A Soldier

Yoni

We are back in Israel and my unit is at rest, so I thought I would send you an email before we go back in on Friday night.

I am afraid for my guys, the fighting has been tough but now that the UN is going to set a cease fire and Olmert what a SOB he is again stabbing Tzhal in the back again.

We are going to go back to Lebanon before the world sh—ts on the Jews once again.
Yoni how can I take my troops back to fight in such a mess, what is I loose one of my guys ?

What words can I use to comfort their families. I have some guys that have wives at home pregnant what if G-d forbid their dad is killed today, for what? I feel like sitting and crying but I got to lead my men.

We have lost the war and the army has the ability to beat Hizballah, Syria and the Palestinians all at the same time, but the cowards will not let us.

I got to go but I am afraid of the next 48 hours.

M

I've got an Israeli political question that i'm not sure about

I know Olmert has to at least bring this in front of his cabinet, but does Olmert need the consent of the Knesset to sign off on this cease fire?

I think I know the answer, just don't want it to be true, b/c i think Olmert may have his hat handed to him if this went in front of the Knesset
