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)
I’m a fan of Weight Watchers because it helped me drop nearly 70lbs back in grad school – I’m now back on the wagon to lose the last few pounds gained during my pregnancy. After my initial success they hired me to produce content which gets hosted in places like their Facebook page.
On the rare occasion I accept payment to review a product, know that it’ll always be noted in its associated post, and for better or worse, the review will reflect my honest opinion.

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.

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.
