The Topography of Defensible Israeli Borders
by Maynard on July 10, 2011A post by Maynard You’ve heard the ongoing debates about where the final borders of Israel should be set. These discussions are usually phrased in terms of how much land changes hands, as if Israel’s purpose is simply to have more land. But the vital pursuit isn’t land for its own sake, but control of land that’s strategically defensible. Topography makes all the difference in the world. You want natural barriers to make it difficult for the other guy’s tanks and armies to move into your territory. A river makes a good barrier; this is why you hear of bridges getting blown up in wartime. No bridges means no large-scale invasion. Also, you want to control the adjacent mountain ranges....

The Palin Lounge, Weekend Edition
by Tammy on July 9, 2011UPDATE: The “Palin Report” has posted. UPDATE Sunday: The cover of Newsweek has been released: The Newsweek article: Palin Plots Her Next Move (HT Chuck in Comments). I was going to wait to post this when I was done with the “Palin Report,” but with the release of a new, and I believe significant, Palin Facebook post I thought I’d post this Weekend Edition of the Palin Lounge now. As with the other Lounges, the usual no-links rule is lifted due to the nature of lounging and sharing :) Comments including links, however, will still be moderated. I’m starting up the “Palin Report” now and will post here when it’s finished. In the meantime, here’s her Facebook post from this...

Former first lady Betty Ford dies at the age of 93
by Tammy on July 8, 2011A remarkable woman who turned who own troubles into a life saving venture for so many others. May she rest in peace. Former first lady Betty Ford dead at 93 She had been a soccer mom to four children, a professional dancer, a congressional wife and a model. But Betty Ford will be forever linked to the work she did after the White House, when she moved to Rancho Mirage, Calif., with her late husband, former President Gerald R. Ford, and changed national attitudes about addiction. “She made a great impact as a first lady,” said Henry Kissinger, Gerald Ford’s secretary of state. “But I think she made a greater one afterwards. She maintained her commitments. She created the Betty...

Sneak Peek at Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher
by Tammy on July 7, 2011A Hollywood film about Thatcher. What could go wrong? As I noted on Tammy Radio, there’s something very wrong with this trailer as it seems to make Thatcher a cartoon. As someone over at Hot Air put it, Streep is delivering Mrs. Doubtfire not Mrs. Thatcher.
