Weasley Clark on CNN as we type... "If I'd been President, we'd be TALKING to these people!" They'd be discussing Serbification, no doubt.

"19:39 Ahmadinejad: U.S., U.K. should be thrown off Security Council (Reuters)" Take it a step further and have the U.S. and the U.K. get out of the UN and I'd agree with him!

OMG! I want to smack him.

MUTE...it's the only way to listen to Weasley.

I think more than a few in the audience wanted to slap him, too.

Yep... They're lucky the top's not peeled off (if you know what I mean).

Where is that target graphic when we need it? I found a question on shia-chat about the camp that was named in the original post (other thread). Someone asked if anyone was going and no one answered, which tells me that most got the memo that the location wasn't to be divulged. Also interesting that the cached site I posted was suspended.

Thanks for your prayers too. He's had stellar training and I need to just keep that remembered. I saw "SIL" and thought sister-in-law for some reason. Now I realize you meant son-in-law. I'm still invoking the tonsillitis-foggy-mind excuse. ;-)
HE will be in my prayers.

The KGB infiltrated a lot of churches also. Much of the current nuttiness can be traced back to a few influential people.

We mustn't forget the other front..no, I mean the other war:
GAZA: PALESTINIANS WOUNDED IN INTER-FACTIONAL GUNBATTLES
A number of Palestinians were wounded when armed groups exchanged fire in Gaza City.
Officials in the Palestinian Authority reported that the gunbattles took place in the center of town, apparently between Fatah armed forces and the Hamas armed force. (Ali Waked)

Why are they fighting each other?

That's a great read. Thanks a lot. I think the key phrase in the piece was,
"But Jerusalem still mattered theologically (to Islam) only when it mattered politically"
I think that really sums it up. I also liked how Islamics are adept at revisionist history. Sounds like a political party here in the US I know of. ;-)

You'd think they'd join forces and attack their common enemy.
