The price of a barrel of oil dropped ~3% today as the market priced in the expectation that the Israeli retaliation will be relatively limited.

In some "positive" news... Russia's meat grinder soldiers - 50,000 confirmed dead WWW.BBC.COM In the second 12 months on the front line the body count was nearly 25% higher than in the first year.
