_CNN.com - Iranians volunteer to fight Israel - Jul 26, 2006_ (http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/07/26/iran.volunteers.ap/index.html) This is a much more subdued piece than what it was originally this morning -- they have de-escalated the #'s etc. I think the original piece was somewhat alarmist. I haven't had the time to look into it further on the web. If I can locate the original CNN post from this morning, I'll send it on.

I'm horrified at what is happening but I cannot find either side more responsible than the other. The kidnapped Israeli's were not a cause -- just a trigger. What troubles me now is that Iranian forces are pouring in to Lebanon in droves. Julie Krueger
