It seems to be beyond Shep Smith's comprehension that Israel goes out of its way to drop leaflets telling civilians to leave and tries very hard to avoid collateral damage. Contract with the jihadists who are trying to kill as many civilians as they can and almost ignoring military targets.

Bring Out Your Orange!

Right after 9/11 our landscapes and highways were flowing with American flags. America has no greater friend and no greater cause than Israel. I'd like to fill our landscapes and highways again. This time for her; for Israel.

Many of you surely remember the Israeli pull-out from Gaza. Israel was amass in orange and blue. Inspired by the grassroots 'Orange Fever' of those days, I have made a personal vow, and am asking all of you to join me. I will wear bright orange everyday from this day forward until Israel is safe. I will be venturing out to buy bracelets, scarves, socks, ribbons, etc- all in bright orange. The Bible tells us that a day will come when all of the world will turn against Israel. Well, today is NOT that day, and I am determined to let the world know it.

NO MORE LAND FOR PEACE! These Muslim nations don't want peace. They are not victims of anything but their own actions. If they want peace, they will start acting like civilized human beings. You want to be respected? Then BE RESPECTABLE!

May God bless America, God bless our leaders, and may God bless Israel.

Shep really should remind viewers that the civilians were being held hostage as human shields. Or was that just a "rumor"?

Yeah, me, I only gotta get back to working harder (to not be overwhelmed by the Chinese imports.) But, that's a different thread.

I guess I AM a bit surprised the IDF doesn't have flak jackets for their soldiers. (?) Better get Sen. Kerry on it, right away. /s

Maybe see y'all this evening...

Yes, it does change things. As long as it's simply intelligence reports, they can say we are making it up. Once they catch REAL Iranians and parade them in front of world-wide TV, we have a different situation.

Oops. Did they not get or heed the advance warning?

The jihadists can't win if they don't hide out among civilians. They know the toll this takes on innocent civilians, especially the children, will bring world pressure to bear on the Israelis.

I've thought the analogies made by conservative reporters to the civilian death toll during WWII are good ones. Did the world try to pressure the US and our allies to stop bombing Germany because too many civilians died. Undoubtedly a few democrats tried :-)

I have been watching Shep. He wants to talk to more Israeli military so he can present them as too young, unprepared, not up to the task. Note to Israel, DO NOT LET YOUR SOLDIERS TALK TO THIS MAN.

Israeli soliders express some relief upon returning back across the border from Lebanon into Israel.

These guys have been doing some heavy lifting lately.
