The computer I am using for now doesn’t support current software versions, so I’m relegated to writing html to access the blogger edit window.
I’ll post this now then update it when I can move back into the 21st century.
I recently posted - Insane snippets
- an excerpt from the Guardian, an interview with an Hezbollah fighter. If you went to that article you would have also read:
"We stay put and we don't move till we get our orders, and this is why we are not like any other militia. A militiaman will fire whenever he likes at whatever he likes," explains one of the men, who says he has been involved in firing Katyusha rockets into northern Israel. "We have specific orders. Even when we fire rockets we know when and where [to fire] and each of the men manning the launchers runs to a specific hiding place after firing the rockets."
He says Hizbullah fighters expect the site of a rocket launch to be hit by an Israeli airstrike or shell within 10 to 15 minutes. Article Here
Now since then you would have read news reports of Israeli rockets hitting an apartment building in southern lebanon. Can you put 2 X 2 together? Doesn’t that seem like a masterstoke of PR by Hexbollah?
They don’t give a rat’s arse about civilians. chikdren, they are terrorists. But Israel fired the deadly rockets and were duped into showing that they are also careless of human life.

That's the sad truth - both sides take the lives of innocents much too readily. Sure the intent of Hezbollah and Israel is not quite the same. But to the families of the dead, it's a distinction without a difference.
I like the new title and scope of your site. Good luck with it...
After the intial revulsion the only way I can deal with this conflict is dispassionately.
THat doesn'r stop the grief, but it helps.
Tahnks on GS. I expect the content to be much the same, just recognising the shift.
