They're expecting something to happen when Iran makes their announcement today.

It's 7AM over there right now on the 22nd. When will the announcement be?

Nobody knows except Iran.

It's supposed to be today, though.

If they attack it will be under cover of darkness... probably as soon as Shabbat's over. In a couple of hours.

An official from the U.N. monitoring force in south Lebanon, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the press

Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah seems very gay to me. Does he strike you as a flaming closet queen? It would, perhaps be very bad for him if this rumor started to circulate on the internet, don't you think? :^)

This came from Yoni who I gather is an Israeli source used by Hugh Hewitt and others on Free Republic. He shares some interesting info. on what the IDF is finding on the battlefield.


Syrian Resupply
Friday, July 21, 2006 5:51 PM

Three things were on the evening news in Israel that must be brought to light.

Elite IDF units have found on the ground in Lebanon a large number of the most up to date Russian man portable anti tank missles. The missle is the AT-14 Kornet and Hizbullah was taught how to use it bu Iranian instructors.

Second the 220mm rockets that hit Haifa today were of recent manufacture in Syria.

Lastly and most import Syria has a a current on going operation to resupply Hizbullah with rockets and other equipment.

"Mounting civilian casualties and the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Lebanese could limit the time Israel has to achieve its goals, as international tolerance for the bloodshed and destruction runs out."

Screw "international tolerance", just get the job done this time.

An official from the U.N. monitoring force in south Lebanon,
speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not
authorized to talk to the press, told The Associated Press in
Beirut that between 300 and 500 troops are believed to be in
the western sector of the border, backed by as many as 30 tanks.

Evidently this UN official couldn't make direct contact with Hezbolla with this information so he used the press.

Godspeed to the IDF and all of the citizens of Israel. I've got a bad feeling about this, like a biological weapons kind of bad feeling. I hope those towell headed bastard sons of whores realize that EVERYTHING goes on the table if they decide to get too nutty.

Pushing straight into Southern Lebanon, into defenses built up over the last 6 years, is going to result in serious casualties for the IDF.

The best move is an 'Inchon amphibious op' just south of the Litani river. Drive East and cut Hezbollah off from Beirut and the Bekka Valley. Once cut off the IDF can squeeze them from 2 sides while cutting off resupply. Use your superior mobility and strike power to offset their somewhat formidable static defenses.

Given that "international tolerance" for Jew-killing is apparently infinite, the adjudicators thereof can go perform a self-referencing but anatomically impossible sexual act.
