Here is what I'm wondering is going on:

Screwy Louie in Iran is coordinating one massive strike against Israel and US interests in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Iraqi and Afghani fronts will be under the guise of insurgent resistance, but the timing will coincide with an offensive against Israel so as to keep our troops off guard and busy. The Iranian Hitler is just crazy enough to do something like this- and probably has a ton of followers ready to do anything at his command.

CNN International is anti-Israel. Always has been.

Senator Unhinged appeared to have taken his daily meds today. Has anyone noticed he's spent more time in Iowa and New Hampshire than he has his home state of Aridzona?

I missed that....I used to just leave it on Fox..but these bird brained blonde bimbos interviewing military experts is just insufferable. They can't do better than that?
At least Greta could sound series and was an atty.

Vannity and Homely's swift termination.

That's when I change channels for the night. You can usually set your watch by it.

Nic Robertson went on a pretty good rant there for a bit likely he actually gets the bigger picture.

I'm worried if Syria and Iran jump in, they will target US troops in Iraq.


I am too, even more so that my Jonathan is heading over there and he will be close to the Iranian border...not that that makes any difference...

Okay, I guess we'll let your sympathetic leanings pass this time, LOL! I happen to think Fashion Runway is probablly more intellectually stimulating than watching the cryptkeeper, and certainly more relaxing.

Personally, I usually miss H&C because Landscaping by Design is on HGTV or Flip This House is on. ;-)

There are county fairs at this time of year? Aren't they usually in the Fall?

Nic Robertson is a pantload. He spent an hour kissing OBL's ass back in 1998.

No, I completely understand that. I hope our guys still have their chemical suits because I have a feeling we will see where Saddam's WMDs ended up.

We have to have more faith in our troops and their mission than this. We can worry, but we must realize that these are intelligent, educated clever people who are trained to handle the worst case scenarios.

We also have to remember that millions of Iraqi people raised purple fingers in defiance of terrorism and voted for liberation. We may have more support for freedom than even we can fathom.

We are positioned to aid Israel and Israel will aid us - I am also counting on the people who have embraced liberation and freedom - brought to them by our troops.

We must pray for their safety, worry about them, but mostly support them at every turn - especially when the going gets politically rough, which it will.

unless the bad guys in Iraq leave to fight against the Israelis.

That's what I was wondering today - the war they have all been waiting for........what to do what to do......Do we want to kill American soldiers and innocent civilians or do we want to kill the Jooooooooos?

It certainly makes a difference to you, I'm sure, mystery. Saying a prayer here for the safety of your son and all our brave warriors over there.

Doc, I'm not asking anyone to convince me that Syria is "in" given that I, and everyone else except for one old hermit somewhere in Montana, know that Syria has been supporting Hezbollah for years, as has Iran.

What I was asking for is "what evidence of the situation on the ground in Lebanon" has been shown to the world to suggest that Syria is quite openly acting as a player in all this? There's a big difference between logistical support and troops and/or open military action. I'm wondering if it's reached the latter. And yes; I did see the Israeli charge that Iran is behind the Haifa rocket attack. I'm waiting to see if the international press does more with that than simply reporting Israel's charge.
