US warship positioned off Lebanon

The United States has ordered a warship into position off the coast of Lebanon.
The USS Cole was sent there amid growing concern about the political impasse in the country. Lebanese politicians have been unable to choose a president amid months of wrangling between pro-and anti-Syrian factions. A US official quoted by news agencies said the destroyer's deployment off the coast was designed as a "show of support for regional stability".

Better put your vest and helmet on.

My vest and helmet is ALWAYS on!

Hamas and Hezbollah are starting to poke and prod Israel in their underbelly. I think its time to eradicate these two evil entities once and for all. Then Iran won't have anyone to fight their battles.

USS Cole. Now there's one ship where the Iranians or zamboni's had better not try to buzz them with armed boats as they did recently. I would like to think that the USS Cole is sensitized to what could happen in that instance and will act to destroy anything that even looks like it is coming at them. That is one movie we dont want to see again.

NO WAY could the Zamboni be off the coast of Lebanon.

With my own eyes, I saw it last night, not 24 hours ago, in the Channelside District of downtown Tampa, at the St Pete Times Forum, for the Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Minnesota Wild hockey game.

You're not gonna fool me...

No such bloody luck. I found that picture on the web, just copy/paste.
Done deal.
Still have no idea how to get a photo from "My Pictures" to upload to this forum.

Upload it to ImageShack® - Image Hosting

Copy the code.

When you create a post here click on the pic icon then paste the code. Done.

I, for one, wish to sincerely thank you for your service to our country.

Oftentimes, I drive by the James B. Haley VA Hospital/Center here on 30th Street in Tampa, reputed to be the busiest VA Hospital/Center in the USA...

I rarely experience heartbreak like I feel when I see the kids outside in wheelchairs minus limbs..

This is what makes me question whether this war is worth it?

Well I was in the Corps stationed at Camp David - which was boring. And when you have a bunch of bored Marines you'd better damned well have a sense of humor.
