Elbit Systems: Israeli-made drones in action in Iraq, Afghanistan

By The Associated Press

Small Israeli-made pilotless planes are gathering intelligence for U.S.-led forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, the manufacturer said in a statement Monday.

Elbit Systems, one of Israel's leading defense electronics companies, said the little Skylark can be carried and operated by a single soldier, covering an area within a range of 6 miles day or night, the company said. It did not give details of its exact size or weight.

Skylark is operational and currently deployed in the global war on terror in Israel, Iraq and Afghanistan, the statement said. It described the Skylark as suited for close range, beyond-the-next hill, counter-terror missions.

I had a miscarriage last week.. the next day, I lost my job. I go to school full time and was supporting my fiancee and I. Today, I lost the last $20 I had, and I have no toilet paper, milk, butter, eggs, soap.

I can only think of one quick way to get cash, and that is to sell the 30 vicodin that I have. I have pain (prescription for it), but I need the money more at this point.

Do you have any ideas of ways that I can earn quick cash WITHOUT breaking the law??

WASHINGTON - A Yemeni portrayed as an al-Qaida operative and a member of a terrorist family confessed to plotting the bombings of the USS Cole and two U.S. embassies in Africa, killing hundreds, according to a Pentagon transcript of a Guantanamo Bay hearing.

The transcript released Monday was the fourth from the hearings the military is holding in private for 14 "high-value" terror suspects who were kept in secret CIA prisons before they were sent to the U.S. facility in Cuba last fall.

So who is next? Another "detainee" or "enemy combatant" ? Will all of those involved in the "terrorist" attack mysteries finally be solved? including 911.?

For example in WWII the Russians hated the socialist, fascist Nazis. While the Germans hated the communist Russians... Weren't they both authoritarian socialist nations?

Next year I'm thinking of going from the Army Reserve back into the Regular Army but this time with a family and pets. Just wondering how much lawn maintenance I'll have to worry about and if I can downsize my lawn equipment? Thanks.

Either factual or opinion??? I admit I do.
Example : Jimmie Carter, The hostages in Iran. No leadership at all.
Camp David agreement. Magnificent!

Nixon: opened relations with China- Good.
Watergate. Bad.

I am emphasizing WHY very much! Only serious answers please. Since joining this community, I have read SO many people trying to promote who they believe ought to be elected in 2008, but I have not heard any facts as to WHY they are voting for that particular individual or prefer them over others. Give me some insight, because as it stands now, one would think that the only people running for the Dems are Hillary and Barack and for the Repubs it's Rudy, Mitt, or John McCain.

Other Dems running are John Edwards, Bill Richardson, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd, and Dennis Kucinich. Other Repubs include Sam Brownback and Mike Huckabee.

I would like to hear some really good reasons. I already know who I'm voting for and why. Try to convince me your candidate is the best choice and perhaps my mind could be changed?

Hello,

I sometimes wonder the reason why you can't photograph or videotape inside a mall?
