Israeli combat soldiers walk along the Israeli northern border with Lebanon. US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is pursuing a new round of Middle East diplomacy as the Lebanon conflict moved into its 19th day, with Israel and Hezbollah exchanging firepower and threats in defiance of international moves toward a ceasefire
How many countries drop leaflets to tell THE ENEMY to get out of the house or the town? How many countries CALL THE ENEMY ON THE PHONE, to tell them to get out?
Have we not seen time and time again, the Arab terrorists hiding behind women and children? Have we not seen the false "Jenin" accusations, time after time?
Why is it that the world media, including the US media, portrays Israel as the aggressor? And why do sheeple believe it?
You're right...I also can't take it anymore.
All a cease-fire will do is allow them to re-arm.
Those are beautiful...and a great sentiment behind them...I just wish I could wear necklaces...it is a long story..but I can't...darn it.
I asked the question earlier. When they drop the leaflets to warn civilians, aren't they also warning the hezzies?

I think everyone is finding this breaking news and dogging the web site. For those who haven't heard:
Lebanese troops fire on 4 Israeli helicopters preventing their landing in the Bekaa Valley.
You got three sources on that, unconnected?
The town the Lebanese claim that this happened near doesn't seem to exist.
Second time this has happened.
I think it's a code of some kind, for global distribution.
Yes....VERY interesting considering that is THE one location that I most want the Isreaelis to get boots on the ground.
Your a good soul Peach
"I asked the question earlier. When they drop the leaflets to warn civilians, aren't they also warning the hezzies?"
Yes, absolutely. You know the Hezzies will never do such a thing.

Freepers already know the gist of what is in that movie. Send it on to friends and relatives anyway. I've got many thank yous (OMG comments) and two why the heck did you send me that ****.
Snip:
Hezbollah has its political leadership well hidden in the tightly packed suburbs of south Beirut, while its main military command is split between bunkers near Ba'albek and safe havens in Syria.
Its training bases are mostly in the Bekaa (Biqa)Valley and include; Ain Bourday Base (South of Ba'albek) - guerrilla warfare training. Nabi Sheet Base - guerrilla warfare training. Ba'aIbek Homs Road Base - guerrilla warfare training. Wadi Firsan Base (in the Hermel, Bekaa Valley) - terrorist training, long-range patrols, observation techniques, anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapon techniques. Wadi al-Yammouneh Base (edge of the Jbeil mountains) - terrorist training. Nabeh El Assi Base (Hermel, Bekaa Valley) - terrorist training.
Asia Times propaganda... yet full of ops goodness, interesting.

jeez louise, 4 breaks? poor kid.
Mine had all stitches...under eye, over eye, knees...but the worst was his ruptured appendix...he was in hospital for 3 weeks.
I just read a couple of posts identifying the town you were looking for. On another thread, if I remember correctly, they indicated it's in eastern Lebanon. In fact, there's some national park named after the town.
I'm listening to how bad the Eagles are going to suck this year LOL Like that's not depressing me also.
Are Jordan and Turkey included in Arab countries? They seem to have normal relations with Israel.

Lebanese Army Opens Fire on IDF Helicopters
22:47 Jul 30, '06 / 5 Av 5766
(IsraelNN.com) Lebanese army soldiers opened fire on IDF helicopters attempting to land in the Bekaa
Valley Sunday night and prevented them from landing, according to Lebanese sources quoted by Reuters
News Agency.
The helicopters flew away without damage after apparently trying to land Israeli soldiers near a town in
the area. It was the first reported firing by the Lebanese army on the IDF since the Hizbullah terrorist war
began July 12.
Israel has said it will not attack the Lebanese army on condition that it does not aid Hizbullah terrorists.

(see what happens when I go outside to work on the sprinklers?)
Every report cites "Lebanese sources". That's not three unconnected sources, that is one source, biased.
There is very little common sense for Israel to be running spot SOF raids right now, with one possible exception, against a WMD facility.
Until other sources back this up, I have a big question mark attached to it.
Yes, but it's a political, PR, and legal move. If this were say, Africa, it wouldn't matter. Makes it really hard in a court to say that Israel didn't warn folks to move out of the strike zone.
Snip:

· 1- Ain Bourday Base (South of Baalbek): training camp for general guerilla warfare.
