Beruit Airport just got hit, might of been by Air...

The LT had to call in Air support, Generaly Cobra's "and" or H1 Slick's....Even Puff the Magic Dragon [C-130 Gunship] might swing by for visit ...Sometimes "Jet Air" there was some fixed wing prop aircraft as well, don't remember seeing the prop job tho... I was kinda busy...
Any of the above you would not want PO'D at you..'Specialy our Guneee....
As we stood down, they would move us all around trying figure out where we were needed..
I even had Life Gaurd Duty at a Tropical beach "in country" once...Funniest thing I did was drive a, ready for this? a school bus! Somehow that old bus survived over there for yrs previous to my turn as driver..Later on? I got a kick out of Radar on mash, the one when he was driving the "School bus" I think it was the same one..LOL

May 31 '06 Since Israel completed its withdrawal from the Gaza Strip last September, more than 440 rockets have landed inside Israel, some doing extensive damage but none -- so far -- causing any deaths.
these are crappy rockets, but in the last month? i've been hearing that the rocket quality is improving...

last year? Hamas was so desparate? they were making the rockets out the pipe used to make street signs...
http://www.standwithus.com/news_post.asp?NPI=249 To overcome a lack of raw materials, Kassam rocket makers have begun using pipes that held up street signs. Because of this there is a dearth of signposts in Gaza, military sources said.
The sources said Hamas members and backers were working at a heightened pace in metal workshops to produce more weaponry, to be better prepared for an outbreak of hostilities if and when the de facto cease-fire breaks down and the IDF again targets them.
i am trying to track down where they are getting their materials from now...
the rumors are that Iran began supplying them with higher quality materials thru Damascus....
On June 29, 2006, a Qassam that was apparently a new model landed in the city of Ashdod. Remains of a dud two engine or two-stage rocket were found.

The Israeli army said several Hezbollah rockets overnight had landed more than 20 kilometres south of the border, showing that Hezbollah has managed to extend its missiles' range.

Glass i agree.. i think there using the word missle to make them sound more like military strikes. If I were a betting man i would bet there is 0 accuracy on these things. Fact is if the thing makes it over the wall they hit there target.

F#CK!NG SANCTIONS???? I have tired... I eagerly await this doomsday that will topple all governments... including ours.

Do you know anything about the fighting on the eastern front in WW2? And about the aftermath of WW2 in eastern Europe. There is a deep hatered between German and Russian troops, when the two met it resulted in the most fiersome fighting anywhere. The Germans slaughtered the Russians by the 100s of thousands. At the end of the war many German officers surrendered their comands to the Americans with the hope that they could join us to fight the Russians some more.

i've seen several hopeful articles like this today:
maybe Iran has overstepped the line after all?
July 13, 2006, 7:49AM Russia, China to pursue Iran sanctions They join U.S., Europe in seeking a U.N. resolution ordering Tehran to halt nuclear work
By HELENE COOPER New York Times
PARIS - Russia and China, crossing a diplomatic threshold in the effort to curb Tehran's nuclear ambitions, joined the United States and Europe on Wednesday by agreeing to seek a U.N. Security Council resolution ordering Iran to freeze some nuclear activities, or face sanctions.
this is not the solution yet, BUT it looks like a move in the right direction

Russia? they want money...they've really gone for capitalism in a big way.. i heard today that Moscow now has more billionaires than New York, or any other city...

interesting: The youngest billionaire is also female. Hind Hariri, daughter of slain Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, is 22 years old and eight months younger than Germany's Prince Albert von Thurn und Taxis Forbes list of billionaires
