Jay Leno just said that the American government says it's not easy to move 25,000 people stuck in Lebonan across the border quickly

...and that we should ask the Mexican government to do it for us.

An Israeli F15 fighter bomber intercepted a Hizballah Zelzal ground-ground missile of 160km range east of Beirut...

The descent of the Zelzal shown on Lebanese TV gave rise to the false report that an Israeli warplane had been shot down.

That the ground forces would be slaughtered because of mines. If you treat the area like a battle field (which it would be) you can overcome the mines. We know how to do it, so I am sure the Israelies do too.

Is there any way you could explain, please?
