Happy Sunday Morning Taro,

At Least 50 Killed in Israeli Air Strike

BEIRUT, July 30 -- Israeli warplanes seeking to destroy Hezbollah rocket launchers blasted a group of houses in a southern Lebanese village Sunday, killing more than 50 people, most of them women and children, according to Lebanese officials and on-scene interviews by Lebanese television reporters.

Coming at a particularly sensitive point in negotiations to end the conflict, the attack on the village seemed to throw the painstaking process of building toward an agreement into turmoil, and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice cancelled her trip to Beirut Sunday following the Israeli air strike. She was in Jerusalem conferring with Israeli officials, maintaining her insistence that calls for a cease-fire in Europe and the Arab world are premature until a sustainable settlement can be worked out.


Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora said he would not hold talks with Rice until a ceasefire is called. "There is no place on this sad morning for any discussion other than an immediate and unconditional ceasefire as well as an international investigation into the Israeli massacres in Lebanon now," Siniora told a news conference in Beirut.
