#5 I find it hard to understand why any Americans would be in LebanonÂ® (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Terrorist Republic of Syria corp.). Nothing in that rathole is worth the trouble.

#6 Reply: For any American kidnapped in Lebanon, we will send 20 cruise missiles each into Tehran and Damascus. If they are killed, the ante goes up with decapacitating strikes on all airfields and military HQ's....oh and that reactor?....

#7 Methinks Nabil's flavor is Strange. He, and his Aide, Lepton Tau, spun a tale of anti-Israeli and anti-anti-Israeli interactions - and predicted annihilation. Nabil closed on a philosophical note saying, "One day you're up, charmed, the next you're down or strange. The momentum of our efforts is balanced by the opposition. It's a Finnegan's choice - the Color of Force is difficult to confine and Stability is a matter of Nature. Thank you for coming."

#8 I think perhaps we may be getting somewhere. The repulsive dark energy and the Big Rip may explain the odd urge for some in the Middle East to seethe and then explode...

#9 Re: Big Rip - There's still time to put your affairs in order, but it's really gonna hurt.

#10 Nabil Quark ~~for brains~~

His name is really Quark? That's funny. Nabil Quark, a very small player in the war on terror, tended to be overlooked in discussions.

#11 I bet the majority of Americans there are dual-passport holders; you know, with names like Antoine Lahoud. Nothing against these folks, but they are there with their Lebanese families and not really in danger, I'd imagine. Now the types named Kerr and Buckley, well, that's another thing...

#13 quarks are subatomic particles, so small as to be difficult to measure :-)
