"How're ya doin'? Got a nice cold towel draped over your neck?"
Something like that. I took a nap break in the bedroom where the only room a/c unit is. So now, of course, I am back in the heat and 400 posts behind. I got a nice surprise in the mail this afternoon, though. My son, out of the blue, sent me Mark Bowden's "Guests of the Ayatollah," about the 1979 Embassy takeover. He's so thoughtful. :)

Yes, Bibi has (or had) dual citizenship, U.S. and Israel. Unless, he gave up his American citizenship, the U.S. would consider him an American citizen (USA does not recognize dual citizenship).

This is exactly what Netanyahu said the West should call for and Bush did so yesterday, Blair today.
Guess who's calling the shots now?

03:38 Lebanese sources: Another IDF unit dropped in outskirts of Baalbek (Reuters)
Not that Lebanon sources are any good, but if they are, and this report is true then
1) this is not a smash and grab, b/c they usually don't last 3.5 hours
OR
2) it was a smash and grab that went wrong and support has been airlifted in to those guys who are allegedly surrounded

Jane Hall doesn't know squat. She is a professor, and has no information from "Isreal's friends", unless she is counting some liberal Jewish professors she eats lunch with.
Roger Ailes could save a lot of money by terminating her, along with Neil Gabler, Wesley Clarke, and Marvin Kalb.

Eyewitnesses inside the hospital told Al-Arabiya that exchanges of fire are taking place inside the hospital and that there are numerous casualties at the scene. How come I have this feeling that they are not going to find any civilian survivors in this hospital when the Hezbollah get finished.

Anyone who didn't know this is NOT qualified to bloviate on gasoline prices. Grrr. Exactly. How in the world did he NOT know that?
I was convinced until now that BOR must be shorting oil company stocks, at least Exxon. Apparently not, if he's that ill-informed.

> why did they think they could take Hezbollah out in a week.
And did they say that, or did the MSM say that's "what the IDF thinks", just so they could shoot it down.

i'm still convinced he started out this war a pu$$y, and was forced into this type of action by the IDF/Netanyahu. Better late than never I suppose
