Maybe the hubbies were/are spending their vacations in a Hezbollah training camp?

I think you've nailed it. I just posted a comment about ***ALL*** these men with their half American children.

Doesn't say much for the women who marry them ... I'm sure if they tried hard enough they could find an American man who would beat them, shutter them in the house and turn them into baby factories.

How many of these women's stories are going to wind up as the "Lifetime Movie of the Week".

I like W. very much but theres one thing that I think he is wrong about and that is Freedom....I think the majority of the people on this planet PREFER oriental despotism.

[Wonderpets]

Thank you.

Interestingly enough, he is a big liberal and he has finally concluded that 'enough is enough'. He wants Hizbullah smashed.

Thanks! Good to here it, looking foreward to a longer report when you can.

Wow. Three groups of people with ancestral hatred of each other. Hey. Why don't we put a bunch of U.S. troops right in the middle of them. That would probably be a wise decision, um,,,, apparently.

Later.

After reading your comment and getting your smug, little excuse for wit, I needed to check your enlistment date, expecting it to be about 4-2006. I see your not a DUmmie crank, you're obviously a SLEEPER FReeper.

Well, if it was a mosque, now the demons know they can find safety there.

Israeli troops met fierce resistance from Hezbollah guerrillas Thursday as they crossed into Lebanon to seek tunnels and weapons for a second consecutive day as Israel refused to rule out a full-scale invasion.

"I have two kids [and] a baby, and they're scared. I'm scared," Esseily said. "First time I've ever encountered something like this."

The Esseilys are among tens of thousands of [insane]Westerners stranded in Lebanon.

[redgolum]

What did Rush say? Of course he has gone megalomaniacal, the mans ego is huge.

[Txsleuth]

I don't know if someone has posted this..but I just heard on Glenn Beck's radio show..

That the Governor of Maryland, the state that the people from Lebanon are being flown to...say that he is pledging to GIVE these people 90 DAYS of FREE food and SHELTER!!

Aren't these supposed to be Americans??? If so, why don't they go HOME, to where the live?? or lived? or have family?

All I can say is...he better NOT bill the US GOVT (us) for this money!!!

"Hizbullah has a headquarters compound in Bourj al-Barajneh that is off limits to the Lebanese police and army, so security officials could not confirm the strike."

Note that the compund is off limits to the Lebanese authorities, and probably for everyone not explicitly allowed to come near by Hezbollah. That says something about the provenance of those photos (by AP).
