The worst part about that was that she didn't say a thing after Mrs. Arafat trashed Israel right in front of her.

Oh now I would be shocked, shocked I tell you that Putin would do such a thing as interfere in the Ukrainian elections. A former KGB guy would never think of poisoning the opposition or shooting a Pope. Just stop talking all that crazy stuff. /S

Well of course not, she agrees with them. I read a book that point blank stated she is an anti-semite. I have some where on my hard drive that she was a PLO apologist way back in the 60's.

Chriac is too stupid to realize that what if going on in Lebanon today (Hezbollah) is going to happen in his country within 10 years.

I Agree, and hopefully they are and this was just PC-feelgood BS for the masses.

JPost is saying a new rocket is being used:

IDF sources revealed that the seven rockets that landed in Haifa on Sunday morning were Fajar rockets, and not Katyushas. The Fajar rockets have a range of around 40 kilometers and carry more explosive material than Katyusha rockets.

Not good. Iran has really been helping out Hezbollah even more than we previously thought, I'll bet.
