I saw some pictures with a lot of tanks. Remember Israel will not invade Lebanon with 1000 tanks but rather with some 200 tanks maximum and another 200 APC.

Harmon has been terrible lately. Apparently the RAT masters gave her a good talking to (in their warped brains) because she used to speak some common sense about national security.
Used to being the operative words.

The rumors of an impending invasion are probably accurate. This is
information on a Flyertalk.com thread from Yi'ron, on the northern Israeli border near Avivim, directly across the border from the apparent Hizbollah stronghold of Maroun Ras:
I thought twice before posting this as it has not yet been announced on the news, but I figured that if I can sit in my house and know it, Hizbollah knows it as well.
There has been a tremendous amount of fire in the past hour. This is not, however, the kind of shooting that we have been hearing for the past few days.
For one thing, there has been no incoming fire. For another, the pattern of the firing is more disciplined and more constant.
This is not the shooting of a battle. This is the clearing of a battlefield for a ground invasion.
BEYFlyer, I think the past week will feel like a picnic compared to what is about to happen.
BEYFlyer is another Flyertalk.com poster in Beirut. The time was 2:56PM (Mountain, I think - 11:56PM in Israel, if I can add).

Speaking of Biden.
I heard on CNN a few minutes ago that he and Sen. Harry Reid sent a letter to President Bush today...demanding that he appoint a permanent, full-time envoy to the Middle East...saying that Condi Rice is too occupied with the other problems in the world.
I wonder if they did that..knowing that Condi is tough..and won't give in to the cease fire right away...I am SURE they want Jimmah Carter, Bubba Clinton, or someone like that, who will appease the terrorists.

Once again, I didn't have Fox on (cartoons instead) and so I am saved from being admitted to the ER once again!
I am making a list of STUPID people who need to be gone from public discourse. Hastert has made the list.

Tucker Carlson on MSNBC just now, said that he talked to a soldier and he reported to Chrissy Matthews that "tonight IS the night"...for a ground invasion.
He was as sure they ARE...as Jennifer is sure they AREN'T.
Well, it seems we have a "news channel contest" to see who is right tonight...kewl

I don't think there is going to be a ground invasion. I think he invasion will come from the sky.I was just researching Israeli air-mobile capabilities.
To: Peach
Dang...no, I didn't see that Fox report about the WMDS.
Nuts.

Systematic, rythmic artillery is THE sign that armor will soon move.
To: Lizarde
Jennifer says there are only 2 main roads up to the border and there are not big long lines of tanks etc. heading up the read tonight.
Mechanized has probably allready staged for the Lebanon opps.
There could be Merkava's getting ready to load for amphibious landing.
FAS.org;
With a moderate number of landing craft, Israel could deliver small forces of troops and armored equipment for beach landings in the eastern Mediterranean. This capability was demonstrated in June 1982, when these amphibious units successfully landed an assault force of tanks, armored personnel carriers, engineering equipment, and paratroops behind PLO positions near Sidon on the Lebanese coast.
