Great Israeli Air Force video of a huge secondary explosion at another air-struck Gaza mosque. The second mosque bombing video I’ve seen. Debka reports that Egypt is urging Israel not to bomb any more mosques, even when they are known ammo and armament dumps. So far the IAF is ignoring them. Keep it up. More bombing, please. Save the troops as long as you can.

Debka has the USS Enterprise "speeding towards the Persian Gulf." As near as I can tell, it’s still docked in Norfolk, Virginia, unless the Navy is purposely keeping mum about it. That might not be surprising, but it’s managed to leave a virtual ship behind to fool the local news media. They’ve made no mention of "Big E’s" departure.
Frankly, the life of Teddy Kollek, who died this morning at 95, interests me more than that of the other celebrities who died recently, James Brown and Gerald Ford. Arguably, Kollek influenced the lives of more people as mayor of the city holy to the world’s three major religions:
"As one of the ‘Ben Gurion boys,’ Teddy Kollek was mostly a behind-the-scenes shaper of Israel’s history from its earliest days – until he stepped into the limelight as mayor of Jerusalem from 1965 to 1993. It was only then that his outstanding skills as a master administrator and familiar of international glitterati from Hollywood to Monaco came to the fore in his quest for support and funds to develop Israel’s backwater capital into a world-class city…Teddy gave Jerusalem, new and old, a new infrastructure, personally overseeing every detail, from garbage collection to a new sewage system to replace the 2,000-year old Roman pipes under the odoriferous Old City bazaar, while working hard to give Jew and Arab, Muslim and Christian, ultra-religious and secular communities, their place as citizens in the reunited capital."
