Was Bush's mic
faux pas staged or really real?
On a related note, has anyone seen the
unwelcome massage that Bush gave to German Chancellor Angela Merkel?
I also find it a bit curious how every time "Hezbollah rockets" are mentioned, the Iranian connection is rightly made, but every time "Israeli warplanes" are mentioned, no one bothers to report that these are undoubtably F-16 fighters that the U.S. sold Israel.
Today, the early coverage is of the helicopter carrier USS Iwo Jima that has been sent to escort chartererd cruise ships carrying Americans (& other evacuees?) & also help pick-up those in Lebanon that want to leave. What the news isn't telling everyone is that refugees are being asked by the U.S. State Department to sign a
promissory note, for which they are
billed later for around three hundred dollars, plus the interest on the note.
