Dani: "Ari, they've started shock and awe!"

Ari: "awww..."

Dani: "no, a-w-e."

Ari: "oooh..."

Also, do Dan Rather, Tom Brokaw or Shepherd Smith ever sleep?

"Shock and awe" is an old military/ air force term. Basically, they plan on dropping so many bombs and causing so much damage in such a short period of time that they plan on shocking the Iraqi military and government into immediate surrender. They plan on causing "shock and awe" in the hearts and minds of Iraqi's basically, hence the name.

and on that note, have a wonderful Shabbos.

Thank you! I was very upset about not knowing a political term.
