#1 What do you expect? Fisk takes writing lessons from comic books. Praying for another Batman style beating, this time from Hezbies. C-crack!!!

#3 I call bullshit. 80 m my ass. Assuming 500lb bombs he would have been inside the kill radius, which IIRC is pushing 100 m. Plus if you've ever been close to that kind of ordinance going off, you know there is no comic book "crack." That's what it sounds like from quite a distance away. This guy is really an enemy propagandist, an agent.

#5 I would say that if you survived to write that article, Israel lived up to their end of the bargain. Israel didn't promise they wouldn't see any fireworks, they simply promised that they wouldn't BE the fireworks. Where's the beef?

#6 ...had given what the ICRC likes to call its "green light" to the route.

So I promptly turned around and told my friends in Hezbollah that the route would be safe that day...

#11 "I saw only three men whom I suspect were Hizbollah...They can cross the rivers of Lebanon at will - just as we did - by circling the bomb craters and crossing the rivers. So what was the point in blowing up 46 of Lebanon's road bridges?"

Is the man that stupid?

#12 Air photos I saw somewhere showed virtually all the Lebanese bridges that were blown up were hit by precision bombing that dropped one span and did little damage to the supports; at cessation of hostilities a good engineering crew should be able to repair them very quickly.

#13 Thanks, Fiskie. Checks in the mail. It'll be in rials, but you'll get a good deal on the exchange.
Want me to send some of the boys down to beat the shit out of you? I know your into that.
Drop by the embassy to say hello when your in Beirut. Just tell 'em the 12th Imam sent you...

#16 I was wondering if it was naturally acquired, or if M. Fisk was being deliberately dense.
