JERUSALEM — Israeli troops and armored vehicles began a massive push toward the Lebanon border late Wednesday, marking the start of a new ground offensive aimed at neutralizing Hezbollah's rocket-launching capabilities, FOX News has learned.

Israel also launched an airstrike on Lebanon's largest Palestinian refugee camp, killing at least two people. The camp is home to about 75,000 Palestinian refugees and their descendants who were displaced by the 1948 Arab-Israeli war.

Israel is seriously late, but better late than never

Changing my words af? In whose terms is Israel seriously late..yours?

Are YOU A soldier, willing to die for his/her Country? Are YOU the leader of a Godly Nation?

I am offended....truly. Maybe you are a vet, your screen name implies it...Jonhn Kerry was a Vet as well.

Do we have a serious disagreement?

"Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah retaliated by warning all Arabs to leave the Israeli port city of Haifa so the guerrilla organization could step up attacks without fear of shedding the blood of fellow Muslims."

This guy was born an actor, as most of them are. He will continue to slither to safety as his morons get mowed down.
Their leaders always take that route. Cowards.

Really?!! These guys have been camping for 58 freakin' years?

Something's not right here---and, although the award for "the dumbest people on the planet" goes to the 75,000 'Palestinian' campers---the failure of the MSM to have ever exposed the sheer idiocy of this purely public relations effort speaks volumes about how uninformed we have been.

The MSM has not served mankind well, at all, since 1967 (IMHO). Bias is certainly a major culprit, but I suspect incompetence ranks a close second.

No, your words were in italics.

Not mine alone

I am offended

I'd give you change for a cup of coffee if that would help.

Maybe you are a vet, your screen name implies it...Jonhn Kerry was a Vet as well.

Did you know John Kerry served in Vietnam ?

Do we have a serious disagreement?

Unfortunately there is not much we can do about it. The border is pretty much closed down to all but the IDF and credentialed journalists and JimRob banned CyberDueling.

And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?

Well now, just like a Cal Gal..I don't want a Duel dear, but you should be able to explain your comments.

After all, if you can't take the heat..back up your comments..why be in the kitchen at all.?

I lived in CA at one time..I know the CA mind.

Won't hurt you to answer me..you might make a FRiend..disagreement is not a bad thing, no matter what California has brought you to believe!
