I didn't listen..I was busy with the Sofalad...and a meeting at work. But you're right, it was a rough day.

Great post. That summed it up pretty good.

I've been married to an Australian for almost a quarter of a century. I have in-laws in Australia that honeymooned in Bali before the attacks there and they live in Muslim sections of Sydney. My SiL was telling me after 9/11 that the U.S. shouldn't have been interfering with the middle east. I keep reminding them that Osama tried to nuke them first.

Freegards,

"Good Lord! I had no idea.."

So much was there all along and so few paid attention. I think we're all making up for that now.

Thanks everyone this is one of the maps I remember, thanks. Keeping it, I wish we could see an up to date one.

[sofaman]

I have relatives in Sydney, Perth and Melbourne. I would bet dollars to doughnuts that they have no idea.

If you ever need to locate an article about this attempt to nuke Sydney, just do an Internet search on "2000 Olympics Sydney Nuclear" and you should find plenty of links.

Here is the website of the blog of the rabbi that called Mark's show today:

He is doing a daily video blog, and his wife blogs..

He said he wanted to hear from people all over the world.

Just turned off the TV...Fox doesn't have coverage...frankly their covetrage hasd been terrible, and CNN is Lebanese tragedy TV.

[DocRock]

I'm glad anytime I can contribute to the cause.

If you have the bandwidth, you should see my homepage! *snicker*

Hey sofa. Americans will continue to walk around with their heads in the sand until their livelihood, possessions or loved ones are immediately threatened. Sad to say.

[Txsleuth]

I know...I turned it off, also.

I am also going to bed...Tuesdays are the busy babysitting days..(both kiddos)..and I am exhausted.

I will see you tomorrow.

I know it is probably hard to sleep well..during a time like this, and your family scattered all over the world.

I am praying you will all be together soon.

Quick peek caused me to bookmark your homepage. Will look further in the a.m. :)

Goodnight to you sage..

[SoCalPol]

is Lebanese tragedy TV.

sofa, you can add NBC to that title. What crap tonight again on the Lebanese getting hit and all the crying, etc.
You can't expect to allow Hezbollah run your country and think everything will be just fine.

From Arutz:

Fatah Leader Says His Terrorists Set to Help Hizbullah
07:08 Jul 26, '06 / 1 Av 5766

(IsraelNN.com) The Lebanese leader of the Fatah movement has warned Israel that Fatah has thousands of terrorists who are prepared to join Hizbullah terrorists in their war against Israel.

Sultan Abu Al-Aynain also warned Israel not to target pro-Palestinian Authority (PA) villages in Lebanon. Fatah is the movement headed by Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas, but it is not known if his Lebanese representative coordinated his threat with the PA.
