"The spread of radical Islam must be stopped at some point, sooner the better."

Remove the radical part and I will agree with you.

Amen, FRiends. The Koran is what muslims believe, and the Koran is what instructs them to wipe out all infidels. Class dismissed.

Ok, that link I have :-)

Not sure which of these it was, so I'll give you both below.

And no, they're not out yet...they're going very early tomorrow morning (Sat AM Lebanon time) and hoping by then. It sounded like most of the whiniest folks are out, so now it's not quite as 'ugly' down there as it had been other days this week.

There's a whole new system they're trying, so they're hoping that between many people getting out already, and the new system, and getting there really, really early, that they may be on their way tomorrow... :-)

Towards the beginning and the end it has some of Jennifer Griffin's story, and about raising her kids with her being a war correspondent.

And this is long, but worth the read...It's a current interview (from not even a month ago) with Jennifer about living in Israel with her girls, etc. It's very interesting.
http://www.q-and-a.org/Transcript/?ProgramID=1080 (or watch the video....this last link http://www.q-and-a.org/Video/?ProgramID=1080)...Jennifer has lived in Israel for 6 1/2 years.

I'm sure that your girls are well aware of the dangers, and are keeping their eyes open. Those kinds of letters are an opening salvo for them. I don't believe anyone would make fun of girls wearing hijab. I'd take notice and all, but I certainly wouldn't be rude. Be vigilant, especially now that we're getting all kinds of new found citizens.

Be it Israel or an International Peace Keeping Force, they should be aware that according to the Bible Codes, Saddam hid his WMD's in the Baka Valley of Lebanon. Now they might be in the hands of Hezbola.

Yeah, I thought there was something different about him. Thought maybe he was using a new eyeliner. Yeah, seriously. I know people have to wear a little makeup for the cameras, but it looked like he was wearing eyeliner, maybe mascara. Yeeeesh!

Where were you? F18s are in Lemoore, Yuma, and Miramar (San Diego).

Well, Edwards AFB is approximately 30 miles away. We live up above the Mojave desert, in the mountains(below Wrightwood). Now mind you, my bf saw them, his little boy and I heard them. Poor kid thought we were going to get bombed or something. This was at the height of the Yucca Valley fire, which was 40 miles away from us.

The direction was towards Yucca Valley(due east), from maybe the west. Been a long time since jets flew over my house :)
