NEWS OF THE DAY!
STORY #1-
Well Hezbollah may be claiming victory but their using U.S. dollars to do it!!!
Yes that's right!........ It seems that Iran has given Hezbollah over $1 BILLION in U.S. currancy (between $600-700million) to help rebuild the southern part of Southern Lebonon where the majority population of Shiite muslims live. Naturally this money does not seem to be extending to other parts of Lebanon or other ethnic groups.
Hezbollah is handing out $12,000 to every household, which is a huge amount of money. More then most would make in a year working, more then many would make in 2 years.
Local NGO's (Non-Government Organizations) in southern Lebanon are refusing humanitarian aide money from the USA, stating......
you can not pay for the bombs that kill us with one hand and then pay for the clean up with the other.
If not for the tremendous amount of money being poured in from Iran they would not be so cocky of course!!
***However it must be noted that for MANY years Iran has been conterfeiting U.S. money, namely one hundred dollar bills and it is believed that some of this money is now being given to Hezbollah.

STORY #2-
Whenever N.Korea finds themselves out of the spot light for to long, Kim Jon Il stamps his little yellow feet and finds a way to bring the world's cameras back to his door step.
Now we all remember that he had alot of attention not to long ago when he test fired his little missles, one of which was supposed to have the capability of reaching the U.S. and the world body begged and pleaded and ranted and raved and did everything but kiss his lil yellow ass, which is what he wanted, to prevent him from test firing them but he did it anyway, and ended up embarassing himself when his most important little missle (the one that was supposed to reach the USA) failed about 30 seconds after take off.
Well before we could even really finish laughing our asses off about that the Isreali-Hezbollah war started and everyone completely forgot about poor little pathteic little N. Korea.
Well I guess that didn't sit well with Kim Jon Il so guess what folks, once again....
HE"S BACK!!!!
Intelligence reports suggests that N. Korea may be getting ready to carry out a nuclear weapons test at an underground nuclear facility very soon. Satelite images show ALOT of new activity at one of their underground nuclear facilities.
It is believed that N. Korea has 5 fully functional nuclear weapons at this time, and everytime N. Korea feels left out of the world lime light they ramp up their rhetoric and do something bigger then the time before, so I guess after this all they will have left is actually firing a nuke at someone!

Regarding the 2 U.S. Border Patrol Agents I have been writing about.
I have just a quick update:
A. The "National Border Patrol Council" has raised some $38, 000 so far.
B. The "Friends of the Border Patrol" who started the
Ramos-Compean Legal Defense Fund has raised $5,000 so far.
Although this sounds great it should be noted that more money is still needed in both funds as much legal work is still ahead
AND neither of these men have received any pay AT ALL since March 2005 when this incident first occured!
So please if you can help PLEASE do so!
