re: #1 Pent.

Is that desperation I smell?

No, that's business. The terrorists in Hizbullah, Hamas, and al Qaeda know that the Israelis may eventually cave and give in to terror demands, so they're looking to kidnap Israelis to force prisoner releases and other concessions from the Israeli government.

It's why it's a real bad idea for any government to give in to terrorist demands. It only encourages further incidents.

There was also a small explosion at LAX - I would tell you more but I changed the channel before any more info was released.

When that propane tank blew up a few weeks ago, my son and his wife thought Canada was under attack. It's very close to the airport and to Mississauga where the terror cells were hiding.

Thank goodness someone was paying attention!

Fire extinguisher was knocked over on a shuttle bus.

A man was boarding an LAX FlyAway bus parked in front of Terminal One when his bag hit the fire extinguisher, causing it to loudly discharge a white powdery substance at 10:45 a.m., according to airport spokeswoman Nancy Castles

It was unclear how many people were on the bus, but they were all evacuated safely and questioned by authorities, Castles said.

"There was clearly no fire and there was clearly no explosion," Castles said. "They heard a loud noise, which could have been mistaken for an explosion."

Hazardous materials crews from the Los Angeles Fire Department cleaned up the dry flame retardant powder that was expelled from the extinguisher, she said.

Regardless of the moral equivalence Speilber instilling in Munich (probably based on the book of "Avner" anyway), the depiction of nervous and barely competent Mossad agents are completely incorrect. To me, the moral equivalence was by the far the most painful.

Look like Reuters has another one of its embedded photographers busted again.

JCM-

I Hate You Sarah Palin

Sure, if she were one of ours, not only would we have nominated her by acclamation, since she fulfills every trope of feminism except for her unfortunate and inexplicable opposition to murdering unborn children, we would also have made at least two TV movies about her life, celebrating her choice to have her fifth child and the announcement yesterday that her 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, is pregnant and is going to marry the teenage father of her child. That’s the kind of heartwarming, inclusive, empowering story we love — she’s like Juno come to life as Juneau, set in Mystery, Alaska.

But she’s not a Democrat, which despite her va-va-va-voom appearance, means she’s not really a woman, which is one of the reasons we’ve spent the past four days since McCain unveiled her trying to tear her limb from limb. Just because she’s the governor of a state sandwiched between two obscure and unimportant countries, Canada and Russia, and spent more time in her first five minutes visiting American troops in Iraq than Evita Barry did during his entire Rainbow Tour, what could she possibly know about foreign policy? It’s not like she’s John Edwards or something.

What makes this funny is he nailed it- she doesn't support the leftist feminist agenda on abortion, so the leftist feminist will allow the politics of misogyny to carry on without comment or condemnation. They make me sick.

Look like Reuters has another one of its embedded photographers busted again.

..."We are concerned to hear about Jassam's detention, and urge the U.S. military to either charge or release him once an initial investigatory stage is concluded," Reuters Editor-in-Chief David Schlesinger said.

"Any accusations against a journalist should be aired publicly and dealt with fairly and swiftly, with the journalist having the right to counsel and present a defense. Iraqi journalists like Jassam play a vital role in telling this story to the world," Schlesinger said...

And they still think taking prisoners is like an episode of COPS where they actually have constitutional rights. If you run with junkyard dogs, don't complain about having fleas.

Enough of this trivia about an unknown group attempting to murder or kidnap of bunch of Jews....who cares about that? I want to know more about a pregnant 17-year old girl from Alaska and why Barack Obama should have a poodle when he deigns to reign over us.

JERUSALEM (AFP) - Plans by an unknown group to attack staff of Israel’s national carrier El Al in Canada have been thwarted, Israel’s private Channel Two television reported on Wednesday.

Without giving the nationalities of the alleged attackers, it said they had monitored the comings and goings of El Al aircrew at a Toronto hotel.

Security procedures for crews overnighting at the hotel between flights have now been changed, it added.

On Tuesday, Israeli newspapers reported that at least five attempts by the Lebanese Hezbollah militia to abduct Israeli businessmen in Africa, Asia, and South America had been foiled.

Anonymity FAIL.

I agree a real leadership is absent in Israel. I'm not a fan of Olmert anyway.
I'm just saying militarily, it isn't dysfunctional.

If you ask me, sure, we do need more of "Wrath Of God". There are lots of activities you don't know of on a daily basis, regardless of Olmert or Sharon.

But, but, but...

I don't understand. Canada is a pluralistic, liberal society with free health care, free education, and all of the trappings that Osama Obama promises. How on earth could anyone want to hurt each other?

We need to understand these poor, unfortunate, souls who are obviously suffering the ravages of discrimination and poverty. Obviously, we are Islamophobic and our blatant disregard for their innocent cultural practices leads them to expressing such angst.

"In July 2006, Hezbollah seized two Israeli soldiers in a deadly cross-border raid, sparking a 34-day war in which more than 1,200 Lebanese, mostly civilians, and 160 Israelis, mostly soldiers, were killed."

That is how the dead from the last war is explained by a neutral news source!

These Hezbollah guys were proabably based out of Detroit. Dammit, I am sick of seeing/reading about this stuff in a passive sense- if at all. We all ready know that the MSM REFUSES to report on these happenings which leaves all of rest of us vunerable and mostly (present company excluded) uninformed about the dangers out there posed by these misunderstanders of Islam.

It's a damn shame that we all have to wait and see what happens next before anything major will occur from our side. I keep saying that, 'if we survive the next one, it will be interesting to see our response.'

SHIT!

I shouldn't have to hope that I'm around to see things happening either around me or in the world yet that's the way this whole thing is playing out...over and over again.

Mulsims plot to kill Queen in UK- no big deal.
Muslim mosque rampant with hate ideology- no big dea,.
Saudi Arabia funds most worldly Wahhabi influence- nothing to see here.
Honour killings occur in the west- Muslims are peaceful.

Iran developing nukes; threaten 5000 times to destroy Israel- not news worthy.
7/11 London bombs- oh, they are just a tiny minority...

Muslims indoctrinating their children to 'hate and kill-' no biggee. Let's give them MORE money to teach thier kids! Yay!
Muslims fly into the Trade Center- but Islam is peaceful...
3 teenage kills shot/buried alive in Baluchistan b/c they were getting an education- not news worthy.
Sharia law taking effect in parts of Canada/UK- you have to be TOLERANT of them.
Qaffadi says he's giving up his nukes- hey! France and the US will build you a nuke reactor!
and on and on and on...

As an Israeli, I feel just as you do about it. Still, not knowing a lot of what's happening isn't necessarily an indication that there aren't any bold 'wrath of god' operations. Trust me, there's more than meets the eye.

OT:

Palin had an Israeli flag in her Governor office -- check out on 7:12

Can't wait for the conspiracies to ensue.

Our Prime Minister's comment at the time was that in Canada, since we're a free society, you can pretty much choose your side. His name was Martin.

A Liberal, of course.

He no longer has a job as a Prime Minister of Canada.

We're about to have an election up here too. That would be a great talking point about how Liberals view the war on terrorism. We have troops in Afghanistan now.

Got to love these choice quotes: There are more though.

We have appointed new doctors, nurses, and health workers in some areas, and there will be various punishments for those who participate in this politically motivated strike," he told AFP.

Doctors and other medical workers went on strike late last week to protest against the firing of 46 health ministry employees, all of whom were linked to secular Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas's Fatah party.

Those working in emergency services, along with health workers loyal to Hamas, did not join the strike.

The striking doctors accuse Hamas of making a spoils system out of the fragile health sector in the impoverished territory of 1.5 million people which has been under a crippling Israeli blockade since the Islamists took power.

Oh its not about a medical strike....its about the Fatah, Hamas rivalry that is going on.
