What is making me ill right now is the discussions of "how this will affect the elections in November"

I agree. Who wants to talk politics at a time like this?

Thanks for the confirmation. Sleuth mentioned reading thru the threads and I thought she was referring to the many posts here that the people didn't really seem injured... Like the bearded guy or the striped shirt guy. But apparently this was not 'staged' and there were in fact many dead.

Cause we're hear all the time, we care passionately, and can get very frustrated by the news.

But it's good to check what else is going on and participate there, too...

"" hmmmm Ali, it seems these groups are taking it out on the UN...""

It's crazy. Kind of like a bunch of little kids taking out their anger on their Mommy. The UN has consistently been their best friend. They must have been given the order both in Lebanon and Gaza to attack the UN and without thinking - they attack. Bizarre.

I hear ya..

I am a very competitive fellow if you want to call it that, but I ain't here to win an award either for posting the most 1 liner Breaking News threads w/o links (not that it is a bad thing , mind you), a few folks are pretty good at it, it is the nature of the beast and the media rich age we live in, I reckun. I don't mind beng a backfiller, the "pay" is the same after all. lol ;-)


Bottom line, I don't care if I post a Breaking News events or a new promising health care item, just so the truly genuine news of interest is snagged and available down the road if needed..

Yes, I did hear Pelcot. It's curious to me that they didn't photograph any of that. Seems like they would have wanted footage of the bodies, in order to maximize propoganda points.

Hi there Howlin....

I thought exactly the same thing. Started arguing with the TV. Mrs S looked at me like I'd lost my marbles...The fact that Rorabacher even admitted that Hezbollah is the root cause of the current conflict is nothing short of amazing.

U.S. Envoy Bolton: Israel Must Consider Hizbullah 'Barbarian'
21:54 Jul 30, '06 / 5 Av 5766

(IsraelNN.com) John Bolton, American Ambassador to the United Nations, said outside the Security Council meeting Sunday night that Hizbullah immorally uses civilians as shields but that Israel is forced to take into "this barbaric practice" while exercising its right to self-defense.
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/news.php3?id=108766
He spoke as most of the Council's leaders denounced Israel for the bombing of the Lebanese village of Kana and demanded an immediate cease fire.

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Israel is carrying out its self-defense in a way that is "causing, death and suffering on a wholly unacceptable scale."

Yeah, Kofi has been siding with these creeps all this time, and now they are turning on him. Armed gunmen are storming into the UN compound in Gaza. If this stuff wasn't so serious I would be ROTFLMAO.

Well since everyone else is storming UN compounds and carrying off everything that isn't nailed down, when do we get to storm the UN building in New York. I hear there might be some good looting there :) Kinda like Katerina without the wind and rain. </Sarcasm>
