"N. Korea has more missiles, U.S. says"
By Bill Gertz
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
July 13, 2006

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld has disclosed that North Korea has produced up to five additional long-range missiles, but that none appears ready for launch.

"We do believe and they're assessed to have something like three or four or five additional Taepodong-2 airframes somewhere in their country," Mr. Rumsfeld said in an interview Saturday with radio talk-show host Monica Crowley.

However, the defense secretary said that "there are no Taepodong-2s on launching pads at the present time.""

Israel has chosen a name for this operation:

OPERATION "JUST REWARD".

Note- timestamp is Pacific time.

[Cindy]

THANK YOU backhoe.

Operation "Just Reward" -- sounds almost poetic.

Operation "Just Reward" -- sounds almost poetic.

I believe our Israeli allies are about to "go Biblical."

It's about time.

[Cindy]

It seems like an operation that has just begun.

I have not seen further confirmation of the name- yet- but the newscrawlers on those linked sites are alive with activity.

[Cindy]

OPIINION: Oh, no, I understand, we've been following the activity here for a long time on TM; I guess I should have said the war has more or less officially begun.

Here's something from the "for what it's worth" department:

[Cindy]

Thanks.
I've never seen this blog before.

[backhoe]

Thanks. I've never seen this blog before.

FYI, FWIW-- I don't get any particular orientation or point of view from that blogger beyond "just trying to get by."

Thought his comment about "still have power and internet" was interesting-- the news I just saw claims Israel is "isolating" Lebanon.

I can remember long ago- the nineteen-sixties-- when Beruit was considered the Monaco or Las Vegas of the region-- before bloody civil war turned parts of it into a moonscape.

[Cindy]

Yep, at one time, Beirut was actually quite beautiful and an attractive tourist spot.

"I believe our Israeli allies are about to "go Biblical."

Yep...it is about time....something that TM'ers have seen coming for some time....and I anticipate the UN and the general liberal hand wringers to start to condemn Israel for defending itself.

Good morning backhoe.

[backhoe]

Good morning backhoe.

Good morning, all4one... "interesting times," or perhaps a "Bad Moon a'risin?"
