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
Hi, Txsleuth. Grin...I'm not worried, but thank you very much. :)
aren't a whole lottta people losing tons of money because of this war....on al;l sides....think of all the business lost...people with money have a say....just wondering about the implication
LOL...I was going to remark about that and forgot...yeppers, FR is just not going to get credit...LOL
Now that is interesting. And not particularly suprising to hear about, actually.
AMEN!
We can only hope! :-)

no, but they could pocket this as a win. hezbollah will be stronger in lebanon (politically) - effectively turning lebanon into another proxy state for iran (like syria is).
and the fight will continue at a later date.
That's pretty much what I said when I found out.
I don't like it and I got grief for saying so, but I'm still here.
If you have a chance to see a rerun of Marc Ginsberg on H&C tonight, He was just great and took Alan to the wood shed.
Thank you, appreciate that.
LOL! I HEAR THAT!
I wasn't watching the TV- but listening-it was GREAT!
He wouldn't go down Allen's little bunny trails like Sean always does... he made Allen stay on topic and answer questions...LOL or at least TRY to answer them!
LOVED IT!
I remember squaring off with you that night and you "clicked" me.
I had said to you that Israel had no intention of invading Southern Lebanon...killing a bunch of Hezzies and then occupying and "holding the hill", because they didn't have enough troops along the border and that they would be vulnerable.
I preferred the hit and run techniques they seem to be utilizing all week.
Remember we talked about FAEs...(fuel air explosives) to render the bunkers useless and to suck the oxygen away from anybody with ambush on their minds.
I have come to look for your contributions here, and am glad we've communicated since.
Cheers!
I thought you were complaining about FReepers who feel as Yoni does, such as myself.
Now you have me confused...
A LITTLE off topic, but I wonder if all these places where the "Koranimals" (i.e. hezzies, hamas, al-etc) live, if there is a "Mr. Haney"( like on the TV show Green Acres, that drove the old truck that seemed to have EVERYTHING on it, when Mr. Douglas had a problem, there was SOMETHING on the truck to sell or RENT to him to help him with out of his current "dilema").
IMHO, there HAS to be a "koranimal" version of "Mr Haney". Heck, it might even be a chain of M.E. "Mr Haneys."
Their trucks are with filled with an assortment of stuffed animals, assorted dolls, baby blankets, childrens' sheets and bedspreads, a hefty supply of bloody bandages, and fake casts, stretchers, and various obscure metal pieces that can be displayed as anti-koranimal bomb parts.
The fleet of "Mr.Haneys" all have mobile phones, and are on 24/7-365 call-up. Got a bombing ya need "dolled-up"?? Call "Mr. Haney M.E.", and he'll show up with his truck with everything you need to make that upcoming CNN photo shoot of a bombing, look like a "no-doubt-what-so-ever" CRIME AGAINST "UNARMED" HUMANITY !!
Sorry for the "rant" my fellow Freepers, but after seeing the "dead kids video" replay for the at least 100th time, it got me thinking of EVERY OTHER STAGED M.E. "photo shoot" like this......
Hoping you are right. Any word on rocket launches?
I don't know...but it doesn't matter now.

all face saving measures by Olmert.
I can't rule that out.
I also can't categorically confirm it, not based on events to date, and not based on that quote either.
Olmert's "tired of fighting"? Hey, so am I.
Some good things going on around here these days, and instead of enjoying them to the hilt, well, here I am, hour after hour. Some folks might take a statement like that from me as an admission of weakness, others may take it as a fact, neither one will know if he's right till I lay down and quit fighting.
On another note, re: Hezbollah, here's what I was trying to get across a while back.
You and old boy are tearing it up down at the local gin mill, and you're gradually getting the best of him, making a real mess of his face, and he's slower getting up each time you knock him down.
While you're waiting, you dance over and paste a good one on his wife, right in the chops, turn her lights completely out and he sees you do it. He comes up off the floor like a raging bull and you hold up both hands and say "Ceasefire".
What happens next?
And "the world" is not crying for Gilad Shalit, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev.
