Didn't they make the call for non-essentials then the others to get out two days ago? At least there are no hostages... right? Wonder who would try to get them out?

It sounds as if Ops may be planted there... can I hope?

[Howlin]

I read it twice; surprised me, too.

[tcrlaf]

NOW I'm getting P.O'd...

CNN is willing to show the dead bodies of HEZ victims of Israel, but showing the dead bodies of 9/11 victims, or the screams of the leapers was "Too much for sensetive Americans"....

[NormsRevenge]

I don't even want to think what this place will be like in the '08 election cycle. lol

IDF warns Lebanese citizens to evacuate villages (July 25):

"To all citizens south of the Litani River

Due to the terror activities being carried out against the State of Israel from within your villages and homes, the IDF is forced to respond immediately against these activities, even within your villages. For your safety! We call upon you to evacuate your villages and move north of the Litani River."

Qana is at 33° 12' 29N, 35° 18' 1E, according to fallingrain.com.

[Txsleuth]

The one video that Fox keeps showing of the scene of the deaths had Palkot in a helmet...but the camera doesn't even move an inch one way or another...to show the carnage.

THAT is truly odd.

[NormsRevenge]

Palis storming the UN in Gaza? What for? Sorry, the kids have taken over the tv so... Hey, y'all have to see this. It's a compilation of a couple satellite images (Google Earth and Digital Globe). For those who don't have GE, go to digitalglobe (image #1) to see where Hezzie HQ used to be in Beirut. At GE, there is an overlay that can be clicked for the before and after. It's quite amazing in a strange sad eerie hazard of war way. I'm wondering if this was the place the Lebanon government were banned from entering.

Sometimes, things here get a bit personal between some folks, not sure why, human nature , I guess. ;-)

I'll point one thing out and then stop: you never see people whiney about those other threads on the live threads.
