You forgot diamonds. DJ Synikus Makisimus Nov 27 #109

Another WWII reference Redleg Nov 26 #67

The Japanese people celebrated Pearl Harbor on the streets. Innocents died in Doolittle's Raid AZLD4Candidate Nov 26 #85

I don't think the whole world blames Israel for defending itself Redleg Dec 3 #118

Maybe if Hizbollah stopped bombing N. Israel with drones/missiles/rockets, MarineCombatEngineer Nov 26 #55

And... Peace Treaty announced. maxsolomon Nov 26 #59

Given Hizbollah's past performances, MarineCombatEngineer Nov 26 #60
