- Israel infiltrated hundreds of pagers intended to go to Hezbollah causing them to simultaneously explode yesterday killing 11 and injuring 2,700. Everyone seems really impressed that Israel pulled this off, but allow me to retort: (1) You really didn't do anything significant to dismantle Hezbollah other than aggravate them, (2) this will only hurt any chance of getting the remaining hostages released by Hamas, (3) importantly, having hundreds of exploding devices go off when you don't have any idea exactly where they will be at the time of the detonation seems incredibly reckless, and (4) The fact that a little girl was killed is nothing to cheer about.
- As with almost all news these days, there isn't a lot of details. The name of the judge has not yet been released, but the attempted murder did have some facts listed: A man came into a couple's home after midnight and shot them -- with the woman being hit 11 (!) times. I what must be some type of Christmas miracle, she will recover. More details are expected to be released today.
