Oh, the Irony

The US State Department wants to clear the record. America, and the world, has not given Israel a green light to continue bombing Lebanon:

“The US is sparing no efforts to bring a durable and lasting end to this conflict.”   

-Whitehouse spokesman Adam Ereli (link)


[The above statement made as the US had a rush delivery of precision-guided bombs en-route to aid Israel in its attacks on Lebanon.] (link)

    Remember the government is fishing for terrorists online. Careful what sites you pick. OK, it’s official – I’m paranoid. Time to call Art Bell.

    Perhaps Al Jazeera is the best … I dunno.  But any guidance you have would be greatly appreciated by me.

    I am trying to read Lebanese news sources as well as Israeli.  Unfortunately I need them in English.  Are there 2 or 3 main ones that would be helpful for me to check?

    Esther, I have said this elsewhere as well: it’s enough to make you wonder whether the Bush Admin simply has never read 1984, or whether they’re actively mining it for good ideas.

    For a tetch of much-needed comic relief, have a gander at Stephen Colbert’s roast of the President at the Press Corps dinner.
