DeLay saying: not to negotiate with Hezzie. No cease fire - it empowers the terrorist. Once you back off they can go to their people and say "see how strong we are - give us more money, etc." . Either put them in a cell or cemetary.

Waiting on appeals court to say whether Texas law is consititutional regarding his status in election.

I sure do miss The Hammer. Maybe he could become a regular on FOX

I think, and I may be wrong, (I am a lot)...that I ever heard President Bush refer to the terrorists as "Islamofacsists" not too long ago..

If that is correct..then I think that pretty much puts his "Islam is a religion of peace" mantra to bed.

Yes, he does look good. Wish they had him on often to counter some of the left. No need to wonder what *he* thinks of Sheppy's reporting. :o)

I hope that is true, because that is what they are.

Zelzal-2 / Mushak-200

The number of names and naming systems attributed to Iranian missile programs is evidently far larger than the number of actual missile programs. One case in point may be the 200 km range Mushak-200 which is reported to be in development, that may be the Zelzal-2. The Zelzal-2 missile system was made available for sale by Iran in 1996. It has a length of 8.46 m and a diameter of 0.61 m, with a launch weight of 3,545 kg. It carries its 600 kg warhead to a maximum range of 200 km (124 miles).

The Zelzal-2 is apparently a locally produced version of the Luna-M [NATO name FROG-7] missile with a launcher based on the MB LA-911 truck chassis. The 8.3 meter-long rocket has a range that is variously estimated at between 100km to 400km, though 200km is the most widely quoted estimate and 100km is the most likely estimate based on the performance of the Soviet missile. The Zelzal-2 is armed with a 600kg high-explosive warhead, and some suggest that it may be able to carry chemical and biological payloads.

It is possible that Zelzal-2 missiles were used against Iraqi terrorist training camps in 2001, and the Fateh A-110 is believed to be a guided variant.

In October 2002 it was reported that Iranian Zelzal-2 short-range ballistic missiles had been delivered to Iranian Revolutionary Guard units in the Beka'a Valley in Lebanon. Israelis sources frequently claim that long-range rockets have been transferred to Lebanon, including 240mm versions of the standard 122mm 'Katyusha' rocket, and Iranian Fajr-3 and Fajr-5 rockets. Hizbullah typically refuses to confirm or deny such reports. However, in late October 2002 Sheikh Mohammed Yazbek, a senior Hizbullah official, hinted at the group's reach, saying that "all sensitive areas of the Zionist entity are within the range of our fire... wherever they exist".

I'm not vehemently opposed to Shep like most here seem to be. I just think he should stay in the studio. He's a p*sspoor corespondent. He makes a much better reader.

Iranian oil goes primarily to Europe. I think we get most of ours from Saudi and South America. Do you think that ANWR will ever be opened to exploration?

Here is yoni's blog...he lives in the USA but is a reserve for the Iraeli Army...and he talks to Hugh Hewitt every night on his radio show.

The other night I heard him say that if Israel EVER gives away another inch of their territory, he would burn his passport..

I think your friend qualifies as an "expert" as well...so I will go shopping tomorrow and buy some orange stuff...I have red,white and blue ribbons tied on my mailbox and front porch light...

I will add some orange ribbons...and look for some orange shirts.

Thank you so much for the suggestion...you are very thoughtful.
