I thought he kind of looked like what Keifer Sutherland would look like if he had to take steroids for a bad case of poison ivy.

How is the U.N. supposed to stop Hezbollah when they couldn't even stop the looting of their commissary?

Flashback - one of my favorite GWB moments was in Latin America when he went to get his body guard that was blocked at the door. The President takes care of his own.

Holocaust?!
Topics: Uncategorized
A colleague at work today came to my office with the paper. Gruesome pictures of those killed or hurt in Lebanon were printed across several pages.

Colleague: Do you know why Israelis love killing Palestinians and Arabs?

Me: Why?

Colleague: Because of what Hitler did to them. The Jews want to do it to others. It's psychological, they want others to suffer what they suffered from so they carry out their own holocaust.

Me: Ummm, so you're basically saying they are doing to the Palestinians what Hitler did to their grandfathers?

Colleague: Yes exactly.

Me: Ummmm, well I have a question. If they, for all those years, were doing to the Palestinians what Hitler did to them, how come the average Palestinian birth rate is 3 or 4 times that of the Israelis?? I mean weren't they supposed to be carrying out a holocaust for all those years? The Palestinian and Arab population in general is exploding. How can that happen while a holocaust is going on?!

I hope that Gillerman told Condi that because HE wants Israel to not back down.

Interesting the guest is reminding John that Iran is not Arab but Persian. The Arab nations are concerned.

I think it's really important for Israel to do this on their own at least for a while
