Surprise!Hezbollah Says Israeli Response a Surprise Jul 25, 2006 By SCHEHEREZADE FARAMARZI Associated Press Writer BEIRUT, Lebanon--A senior Hezbollah official said Tuesday the guerrilla group did not expect Israel to react so strongly to its capture of two Israeli soldiers. Mahmoud Komati, deputy chief of Hezbollah's political arm, also told The Associated Press in an interview that his group will not lay down arms. "The truth is _ let me say this clearly _ we didn't even expect (this) response.... that (Israel) would exploit this operation for this big war against us," said Komati. He said Hezbollah had expected "the usual, limited response" from Israel to the July 12 cross-border raid, in which three Israelis were killed. In the past, he said, Israeli responses to Hezbollah actions included sending commandos into Lebanon to seize Hezbollah officials or briefly targeting specific Hezbollah strongholds. He said the Shiite group had anticipated there would be negotiations on exchanging the Israeli soldiers for three Lebanese prisoners in Israeli jails, with Germany acting as a mediator as it did before.

Guliani wouldn't even win his home state in 2008. Think about that. Guliani would definitely lose NY State. He has thrown in with the Bush-Cheney BS, telling everyone Iraq has been good for the "war on terror" and that Bush has been "taking it to the terrorists". That's total crapola. Just the opposite is true and everyone knows it. As for Rice, she isn't going to be on any national ticket. She's a failure. And a liar. And she's either a prudish lesbian or GW's mistress. Take your pick. She hasn't dated a man in 20 years. No, the GOP has only McCain in 2008, Or else a guaranteed loss with someone like George Allen who is a smug Bushie.
