#1 "Ban said he is gravely concerned about the fighting in the last two days between Fatah el-Islam gunmen and the Lebanese army."
Got that diplospeak down pat,eh ? No need to be concerned, the Leb Army has opened fire with artillery and will have the bunch of ruffian boys reduced to small gobs of goo in a coupla more days. This solution will provide great relief to your already overtaxed brain.

#5 ya gotta believe, ship!

Seriously this may be just the right size opponent for the Lebs, just big enough to challenge them and make them learn, and small enough to handle. Good training before they take on Hezb (if they ever do). Syrians may have made a mistake unleashing FI.

#7 Once JUST ONCE! I would like them to call for the end of attacks on ISRAELI citizens, military, children, businesses, holy sites, hospitals, bunnies or residents. But I think I will be long gone from this world before that ever happens.

#9 Silly RD. All the authorities agree that noodles are best eaten with a tasty sauce. They really aren't good for anything else. ;-)
