Excerpt -
FOUR months after Israel launched its onslaught against Hezbollah, the Lebanese guerrillas are back in south Lebanon stronger than ever and armed with more rockets than they had before the conflict, according to Israeli intelligence. During the month-long war, which began on July 12, Hezbollah fired 200 to 250 rockets a day into Israel, killing 43 civilians and terrorising much of the north of the country.
Since the ceasefire, additional rockets, weapons and military equipment have reached Hezbollah, said an Israeli intelligence officer. We assume they now have about 20,000 rockets of all ranges a bit more than they had before July 12.
Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, has confirmed the Israeli estimate. In a recent interview with al-Manar, the Hezbollah television station, he claimed his organisation had restocked its arsenal and now held at least 30,000 rockets, sufficient for five months of war.

The beat goes on. This never ends. We keep listening to these idiots who tell us to negotiate with terrorists, sign a treaty, work out a peace deal and so on. All we succeed in in wasting more time and lives.

Do not stop the war before you've destroyed the enemy, which only allowed them to claim victory and rearm for next fight.Remember how after 9/11 those moonbats were saying that America caused it on itself by:
1) Its support for Israel and
2) American Imperialism
3) We need to have face to face meetings with these disgruntled islamofacist groups that hate us - and basically give them anything & everything they want! If we as Americans were more open and understanding to their greivances then nothing bad would have (or ever) happen.
The Leftists & traitors in the world really want to see American blood flow to satiate their demonic hatred of American & Jewish/Israeli values.
Remember the single driving force of Islam and the Anti-Christ is the destruction of all things Christian as well as Israel's total annhilation!!
To: prophetic
The Left, especially the American Left, must wake up to the reality that they are stakeholders as well in America and Israel's fate. They must realize that they too are targets and enemies of the Islamists even if they are Politically Correct.

Infiltrating 100 rockets per day since the end of July......only with the cooperation of the French and the UN (but I repeat myself) would this be possible.
And Kerry wanted the French to "help" in Iraq.

"Spanish UNIFIL official Richard Ortax admitted to the paper that no patrols are carried out at night because of the danger involved. Dhimmies. Afraid to die, therefore they will die.
