Darn it.....are we the only ones who care what is going on over there!
Yes, I heard that too.....
I disagree.
I was on another board and someone said now there is a 3rd Hostage a 62yo man. I cannot source this at all....
All bets are off if Syria decides to get involved with the Gaza situation. I bet that scenario is being bounced around between Israel and USA. We already have troops on the border with Syria, that's for certain.
There was no chemical attack, or at least not one that worked. We would have had confirmation by now from civilians or foreign reporters.
You can't suppress the news like this in a free society.
Reports that more Israelis have been abducted by the terrorists....
I think that we're some of the very few following these developments. Another poster replied to me today saying '... and Drudge is headlining the catfight between Barbara Walters and Star Jones'.
I think there is a thread on the 62yo...
But Damascus refers to modern day Syria, right?
"Seriously, you'd think the media would love a chance to twist and turn facts and make Israel look like a big bad bully, but it's not even doing that. Why?"
The same reason tens of thousands of young Iranians marching against their own govt. in Iran doesn't make news, but a few naked PETA half starved idiots makes news every time a half dozen followers strip and pose for the cameras.
Most Americans care more about what Jerry Springer will air tomorrow than major world events that have the potential to change our lives.
It's sad, but true.
Yes, John Batchelor was just saying that Iran WANTS Israel and the Palestinians to have a "bloodbath"...and that the new tactic will be like Al-queda did in Iraq..
by having lots of kidnappings, with videos of beheadings and such.
Also, some man named Aaron in Israel said that a LOT of Israelis have been kidnapped...not just the two we have heard about.
Drudge now headlining with this story
How would Israel confirm anything? If it blew up then the evidence could have gone with it. It would take time to confirm this type of information. There are a lot of explosions going on over there right now. I can't see Israel being able to confirm anything at this point. Hard to say but that seems logical.

Shy boy whose fate could change history
I've always been under the impression that those deadly gasses act relatively fast, so if this is true (and they managed to hit a populated area), we should be hearing about lots of deaths pretty soon.
