Happy 2nd Blogiversary to:
The Wide Awake Cafe

Go on over and wish Laura Lee a happy day and read the story behind the blog’s name.

Confederate Yankee Qana Media Coverup? — “The more I see about the timeline in Qana, the more I doubt the story being told to us by the world’s media.”

Captain’s Quarters (Ed Morrissey) Thanks For All That Death And Destruction — “Fuad Saniora apparently wants to make it difficult for people to remain sympathetic to Lebanon, or perhaps he just has the worst case of Stockholm Syndrome since Patty Hearst. Whatever the reason, Saniora made it clear that he will not have the stomach for disarming Hezbollah as required by the UN Security Council as he praised their “defense” of Lebanon:”

Wizbang (Jay Tea) The fate of hostages — “With the deaths of over 50 Lebanese being attributed to an Israeli air strike, the whole issue of hostages and the lives of the innocent in times of war has come to the forefront. I’m not going to go into the particulars of that incident, as they are still emerging, but it is a good opportunity to discuss the ethics of such situations.”

Don Surber NYT’s minimum sincerity — “Today’s editorial shows the insincerity of the NY Times’ previous campaign to raise the minimum wage. When Dems were for it, it was more patriotic than Mom, apple pie and girl he left behind. Now that Republicans want to cut a deal, it is “a few more dollars for 6.6 million working Americans.” “
