    anyhow, back on topic - they building a new base like they did in Chad or occupying something else out there? i'd say real estate is quite tight.

    they providing their own life support and logistics or is there another nation who handles all that in UNIFIL?
    Think it was formally a Belgian base, just 500 odd yards from Shamrock. They mentioned they had their own life support. Got a tour; was very impressive, actually. RGJ, what is the undercurrent here?

      • RGJ lied about IRCONs record in UNIFIL. That the Tibnin Orphanage had been abandoned.


        Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.

            • The big danger seems to be coming from the Al Qaida hairies in the camp in Sidon; not hezbollah.

                              • There is talk that the next rotation to the Leb will be from the Eastern Bde and not the South.
                                Its apparently because the Souths last two trips overseas were over Christmas and they dont want a third.
                                Anyone else here this?
