Thanks for the links. I didn't realize how active China was in the area. They seem to have their nose in everything these days.

North pretty much reminded us that we need to look at this fight as it could affect the USA...

He said that other than the 9/11 strike by al-Queda, Hezbollah has killed more Americans.

He also reinterated whay James Woolsey said earlier, that Hezbollah very well could have taken down the building themselves...

He said that Israel can NOT get rid of Hezbollah alone...admitted that at some point a negotiated group of troops will have to move in...but, that they have to be armed and able to fight any aggression by Hezbollah.

Did we not read of clerics lumping in the UN with Israel and the US last week? That was the starting gun to attack the UN.

Gunmen stormed into the UN compound. Sounds like it was the muzzies that opened fire, not UN personnel.

AP says UN security fired into the air. Israel will announce the demolition of empty buildings after a cabinet meeting.

Why does Fox have U.S. officials fired into the air at the protest in Gaza as a footer?

Better define "staged".

Gillerman is saying Israel did bomb in that area but they were targeting rocket launchers and their Hezzie crews, not this building nearby that collapsed later, after the bombing.(A CNN reporter who witnessed the whole thing has already described this, but everyone is ignoring his report.)

But the tragic event could still have been "staged", by Hezzie knowlingly putting those people in that location from which to launch rockets. It is even possible they did something themselves to cause the building collapse...we don't know the whole story yet.

TOTALLY agree with you NR...

I don't know why a "competition" seems to crop up...but, as fast as news is breaking today...it seems rather silly.

Glad to see you HERE for a few.

Let them eat missles. Who's going to bring them food now?
They're lucky rockets aren't aimed at them right now.
It doesn't pay to give land, does it?

If they looked to the right and left of them... they'll see who has them in this situation. You lay down with dogs... you get fleas.

I, for one, am tired of seeing these physically fit young "victims" rioting in their streets. No wonder the "Lebanese Army" is so uh powerless to stop the hezzies. There is no Lebanese government only hezzie puppets.
