Hi Hawkmoon; Re: "And I guess they're not sending hundreds of tanks in Gaza either. Did you hear about the preparations for that operation?" Actually, it has been in the news that Israel called up a division, you pointed it out yourself. That's preparation. Gaza is a lot easier than Lebanon, mostly because you can deal with it piecemeal. Re: "Okay Carl.. we'll go your way.. Israel isn't calling up its reserves." I didn't say that Israel was not calling up any reserves. You fool, Israel calls up 50% of its reserves every year. What I said was that Israel wasn't calling up enough of them to invade Lebanon. The US called up reserves this week, does that mean we're going to invade Iran? No, we call up reserves all the time too. And what better time to call them up then when the country is getting plastered with rocket attacks? What I don't see is preparations for a significant war. Hey, if you want to say that Israel is going to go into Lebanon, in significant force, on the ground, then just say it. Don't dance around the issue like a sissy. -- Carl
