Oh...and also...isn't it refreshing to have a powerful politico come out in public saying he BACKS the leader of his country..and that they will go to war, and win it as one??? (regardless what is said behind doors)

There is no doubt of that. Rahm Emmanuel is behind this and it is strictly "politics".

Brit just said they found bodies of Iranian Guard killed by Israelis in lebanon...and sent them to Syria... Is this new info?!

There was a thread about it on FR today. It said that Israel had confirmed that the bodies were Iranian Guard and I thought the article said the bodies were returned to Iran, but I really don't remember that part.

Here's the article about the Iranian Guard helping the jihadists.

The bodies of Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers killed by the Israeli army in Lebanon have been transported to Syria and flown to Tehran, senior Lebanese political sources said. Israeli and Egyptian security officials confirmed the news, which follows a report that first appeared in The New York Sun, that Iranian forces posted to southern Lebanon have been aiding Hezbollah terrorists in their attacks against Israel, including helping to fire rockets into Israeli population centers.

No, I think that it will continue for a month or so, then someone will suggest that Saudi and Egypt will provide the soldiers for the International peace force. It is not a good idea, but at least they can not be said to be in favor of Hezbollah, rather the opposite ;-)

He knows. He is trying to telegraph that we're wasting our time because he's the Managing Editor of the news and Shep's "his friend".

Just how "close" is that "friendship", I wonder?

As far as the recipient is concerned, yes.

But, actually, unless the steel is packaged in a crate the same size as the MRE's, it's terminal velocity would be greater. (Smaller denser package should have less air resistance. Any physicists in the room to do the figuring?) The MRE's would have a bigger footprint, though.

"Rahm Emmanuel is behind this and it is strictly "politics"."

I thought this guy was retiring from politics because no one was listening to him. Well, he's right. Buh bye.

Sheppy was interviewing some Israeli soldiers...and one said they were a terrorist group....but then, he asked another, and he said that they have bases, and other stuff like an army, so they are an army...

I agree with the first one...but, I can see why the 2nd guy said that.

I read earlier that they were wearing green fatigues like the Israelis do..to try to fool them...which is a terrorist tactic...they are terrorists.
