WH to Israel: "You need to practice restraint"

[bigtree]

That's what WH spokesman Tony Snow just said the 'US' told Israel

Are THEY anti-Israel? Pro-Hizbollah?

[atreides1]

1. No they are not

They didn't say there had to be a cease fire, so by that definition they are not anti-Israel.;)

[ChairmanAgnostic]

2. In what key do you want that in?

You mean Arco's pop song, or the jazzy version by The Tao of Cello?

[survivor999]

3. Perhaps they think they ARE practicing restraint.

They did not launch nukes, after all.

4. And ya know, when ya think of the word "restraint," the Bush

White House just springs to mind instantly, doesn't it?

[katinmn]

5. They say this while rushing weapons to them

[kentuck]

6. wink - wink...

We don't want the Arabs to think we are taking sides. We'll have Maliki before Congress to give a speech...

[neoblues]

7. Wink, Wink, Nudge, Nudge...

My thoughts exactly.

8. lot's of winking going on I suppose

you wonder though, when they will have enough of the recklessness to take any moves at all beyond the rhetoric.

[rock]

16. Say no more

A wink's as good as a nod to a blind fish.

9. meaning.... Restrain The Press

The White House doesn't want to see any
more bunker busters going off live on CNN.
It's bad for business.

answer: "I don't know"

11. Tony Soprano to Paulie: "Take it easy..just the legs."

[bigtree]

12. pffftttt!!!

[liberalmuse]

14. LOL!

Great analogy! Come to think of it, the Bush administration does remind me of the mafia.
