Cue Call to Rename Gyros "Freedom Wraps" in 5...4...

The most interesting tidbit I heard on yesterday's Democracy Now! headlines:

Greece Refuses to Host US Weapons Shipment to Israel

Meanwhile, the US has been forced to cancel a weapons shipment to Israel after the Greek government refused to allow it to pass through its ports. The US says it will seek an alternative site.

Reuters says it was 325 containers of ammunition headed to the Israeli port of Ashdod—and ultimately to a U.S. stockpile in Israel which Israel is allowed to access (AFP). ???

I wonder if any of the containers contain white phosphorus shells. Israel seems to be burning through those lately, no sick pun intended.
