In Shep's defense (i can't believe i just said that) it would be a little un-nerving to have a bunch of arty rockets go flying over your head.
I can just see it now at some Hizbullah kaytusha position 5 miles from the border with the TV tuned into FOX. "Hey Achmed come here, wanna see something funny, watch this, wooooosh . . . 15 seconds later . . . that Shep Smith is a riot, let's do it again"
God help Israel.
Don't forget the hair gel.
No, I don't think so. Read the full link in post #1330.
It has been a flashpoint ever since 2000. I think Israel has decided to keep this town!
Note especially that "it was captured during the 1967 war by Israel and its residents have voted for Israeli citizenship."
As I said in post #1345: trust the UN and the EU to f**k things up royally.
Now I know why they had a Downy ad...for Shep's skivvies.
Wow! Congratulations, and I'm thrilled to hear the reports of how mobbed that Support Israel rally was. And pretty pleased to hear that Hillary was booed!
Can you give us an after-action report sometime?
That guy!
Whenever an emergency strikes, seems he can't resist the physical humor. What a (class) clown! Hahahahahaa!
A few years ago, the UN decided al_Ghajar was in Lebanon, not Syria.
Is Geraldo there yet?
Okay - I'm trying to think of the "scud stud's" last name - DARN IT!!! LOL
Shep recently won "Drama Queen of the Year". I see he's going for two.

22:15 Iran calls for Israel-Lebanon truce, prisoner swap (Reuters)
Question is this - what will Iran do when they finally realize their proxy (Hizbullah) is not going to make it out of the conflict standing? Hizbullah has always been considered one of Iran's trump cards and it is being played right now whether Iran likes it or not
Shep is back on his feet now
The town has religious roots significance to the Syrian leadership, but was ceeded to Lebanon by the UN. Looks like it's a good place to observe from.
