		<description>Bang: Good round-up! Sadly, though, once again we preach to the choir! The MSM needs to get their collective head outa their collective ass and publish this stuff on the front pages!

Also, for websites to show support of Israel, try checking out &lt;a href=&quot;http://jacklewis.net/weblog/archives/2006/07/i_stand_with_is.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JackLewis.Net&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; for a nice corner banner. I got mine!</description>

		<description>Thanks Sev for the explanation but I was told or heard that the rats have alot of missle launchers up in the hills and they are firing from there and as the media reports most of the civilians are hightailing it out of there.  I did not see too many houses or structures up there, but I could be wrong, but Isreal has got to keep hittin em hard and they have used some big bombs trying to go underground to hit them in their bunkers in the city.  Just thought it may help to hit em on the hills.

		<description>Three reasons why Israel is not carpet bombing:

1 - It would generate massive civilian casualties

2 - It wouldn&#039;t be that effective, the armaments and Hezbollah strong points are usually in hardened bunkers they&#039;ve had the opportunity to build over the past years of Lebanese complicity by ignoring them. You can bomb the crap out of such country and they pop up like rats coming out of the woodwork afterwards.

3 - It&#039;s hard to carpet bomb when all you have are fighter-bombers like F-16&#039;s. Israel doesn&#039;t have any heavy bombers, one B52 can carry more bombs than 8 or 10 F-16&#039;s can.</description>

		<description>Sorry to hear of you loss but they will have good company up in Heaven, my Mom will watch over your loved one.
Can we start up a diagloge on Iraq, after what thier PM say I&#039;m getting antsy to pull out and let em kill each other off and then we evac the civilians who are innocent and carpet bomb the entire city and leave saddam in his cell, still fasting I hope.
Also, someone in the military, plz answer me this -- why doesn&#039;t the Isreal planes carpet bomb the border like we did in Afganastan looking for coward ass binladen?  Seems like that would take out the bombs in the bunkers - but alas, I am a dumb broad I guess.    :-?:)&gt;-</description>

		<description>Just found this on Debkafile:

&lt;a href=&quot;http://debka.com/headline.php?hid=2950&quot; target=_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;LINK&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

 &lt;em&gt;These orders went out from Syrian president Bashar Assad July 20 when Iran&#039;s Revolutionary Guards commander Brig.-Gen Yahya Rahim Safavi (picture) assumed command of the Lebanon war from Hizballah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Tehran&#039;s direct military intervention in the conflict was accompanied by an Iranian weapons airlift which began landing Wednesday, July 19, at the Abu Ad Duhur military airfield north of Homs. The deliveries include large quantities of new missiles, including the long-range Zelzal and Fajr 3 and Fajr 5 missiles, Katyusha rockets, anti-tank and anti-air missiles sent out from RG HQ in Bandar Abbas on the Persian Gulf.

Assad acted on the assumption that Israel, whose air force and ground forces are already hammering the cross-border supply routes north of the Litani River to block the passage of Iranian hardware to Hizballah, will soon decide to go for Iranian military operations in Damascus and Abu Ad Duhur. &lt;/em&gt;
