Bombs and bullshit

July 16, 2006 · 4 Comments

Excuse the expression, but just heard 4 huge booms, the whole place shook!!!! It sounded damn close, getting stronger each time!!! But maybe it’s still the southern suburbs of Beirut. If that’s the case, that must’ve been a damn huge bomb. What the fuck are they hitting?????

Whatever it is, I have a feeling it is not HezbAllah under fire at the moment. On to merrier topics… some headlines from Ha’aretz ticker:

-IDF warns Lebanon army, says ‘won’t hesitate to strike’ those striking at it (oh, I thought the army was the legitimate one, that this was only a war against HezbAllah and terror. Which one is legitimate and which isn’t anyway??)

-Russian Pres. Putin says thinks Israel seeks ‘wider goals’ than release of soldiers (umm, no kidding)

Update @ 2:27 am: Harat Hreik going through heavy bombardment, apparently via battleships. Jets flying low over Mount Lebanon. Helicopters hovering around and can be heard in the distance.

    Allen – Israel is not invading Lebanon. Stop smoking crack and go to school. You are not welcome in America. Cheers and fuck you.

    troll alert!

    Terminator? Something to prove hotshot? Quite a name for a cowardly troll.

    verbal bombs are just as ineffectual.
