Is this perhaps the "small-diameter smart bomb" mentioned in your post?<BR/> <BR/>I googled "DIME weapons" and found lots - here's one article: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/dime.htm<BR/> <BR/>The description of the injuries in the post at SG are graphic - this DIME critter, supposedly designed to confine damage to a small area sure sounds nasty.

Partition Plan.<BR/>Map No. 3. shows Isreal from 1947- through 1967.<BR/><BR/>Ironically, I ordered this book on-line. I bought it used. (They are less expensive that way.) and it is a copy that was "officially withdrawn" from the Glendale Public Library, (on Brown Street) in Glendale Arizona. There may have been many other libraries who did similar "withdrawals."<BR/><BR/>Further irony. When Professor's Walt and Mearshiemer finally found someone to publish thier work - it was roundly "condemned" by the leadership in both parties, and by our new President-Elect. Strangely, none of them admitted to having read it. (Obama included.)<BR/><BR/>Same thing happened to Carter's book when he went on his book tour. (I admire the man so much... he has this wonderful "to hell with them" attitude.) The House Speaker blustered something to the effect that the Former President didn't speak for the Democratic Party. Again, Ms. Pelosi admitted she hadn't read his work. <BR/><BR/>Don't you at least have to read something, before you can be taken seriously as a book critic?<BR/><BR/>Carter is now working on a new book on the MidEast. I think you can probably get a copy of the current one --- somewhere. <BR/><BR/>I'm not a war strategist, Commander. I'm a great-grandmother, with lots of family, and some dogs. <BR/><BR/>However, they way I see this current bloodbath is this way: If Hamas survives --- Israel lost again.Elderladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02268520056042293783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-35301986559702291932009-01-14T10:24:00.000-05:002009-01-14T10:24:00.000-05:00Great writing.
