Arab Way of War Captain Peter Layton.

Wandering about my logs and discovered this article all over again! Someone else was interested in it this morning and after re-reading it I can understand why. This is from 2003…

We are fighting a new sort of war and it bears remembering that our foes have not quit just because our economy is being ruined by our Government. Matter of fact if I were a betting man I would bet that Al Qaeda sees an opportunity now. We have less resources than we did in 2001 and we have a Commander in Chief who is either incompetent or on the otherside, this is a perfect time to attack to delivery a coup de grâce.

"Want some torture with your peanuts?"…You can’t make this shit up! Sharia is starting to sound better than our Government!

My goodness if this weren’t so scary it would be funny. All of us will be wearing shock bracelets when we fly. Maybe we are closer to this than we know: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” Thomas Jefferson.

No no nooooo NOT the Panties…I will tell you anything you want to know, just don’t put those panties on my head! Arrrrggggghhh did you SEE the Tramp those came off of?

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher should be ashamed of himself…doesn’t he know that if we ask a mass murdering pile of shit a question about who he is planning on murdering next and he doesn’t want to answer we are supposed to apologize for our temerity in asking the question in the first place? Next thing you know he is going to be wanting to actually kill our enemies on the battlefield and we absolutely mustn’t do that!

Lordy Lordy…Where have all the Republicans like Dole gone?

All of this stems from the lack of balls among the Republicans. The big watch word has been working with the otherside of the aisle as if the otherside of the aisle is interested in anything other than winning. Actually if the policies of the Democrats were not such a awful disaster I would admire their tenacity and singleminded focus on winning.

Head Democrat in the House Admits Iran Fighting the United States…

Pelosi declares that the surge didn’t work! Instead she says that any progress made is due to the goodwill of the Iranians which is sort of interesting considering the US Government has been so coy about the Iranian involvement. Oh well even Democrats can be right twice a day…or is that optimistic? Mind you she is right about the Iranian involvement…she is wrong about why the surge worked. Our country kicked ass. But we need to kick more ass and that ass is Persian.

We’re so sorry Uncle Mohammed! We didn’t mean to dishonor a book that calls for the rape and murder of our families.

Reason #1,499 that the Iraqi war has become a mockery of our intentions. When Republicans sit around the campfire at night wondering why they are in the wilderness they might just take a gander at items like this absurdity. I am a Conservative Republican who hasn’t given one red cent to the Republican party in a good long time.

Saddam and Al Qaeda Sitting in a Tree…of course they had a Collaborative Relationship, duh.

Time to remember why we went to war again since the Bush Administration cannot be bothered to make the case. 

This was published as a blog post to commemorate the 5th Anniversary of 9/11. It is time to remember why we are fighting in Iraq.

Why did I make this list of Saddam’s Connections and Collaborations with Al Qaeda?

Frankly I am embarrassed for Tyrrell regarding his fawning over a Islamist loving Grover Norquist.

R. Emmett Tyrrell is shocked, SHOCKED I tell you that Linda Chavez is not a big fan of Grover “Arabist” Norquist.  Here is a snippet from his Article over at the American Spectator. Course I am shocked that neither of them made any mention of Grover Norquist’s scary alliances with terrorists and their enablers. What a shame it is to see a magazine that I have absolutely loved get caught up in the adoration of a man whose loyalties must be suspect.

Pajamas Media has a blockbuster report on Islamic Penetration into the DOD…why am I not surprised?

After all the Commander and Chief of this once great country likes to hang out with terrorists.

For more than fifty years, the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) has been one of the leading government-sponsored and -funded research institutions, conducting highly classified research for the military and intelligence community’s most secret projects.

Islam is the Problem, Moderation Not the Solution…so says Magdi Cristiano Allam

This old post of mine is relevent to this discussion. Recently the Pope baptized Magdi Cristiano Allam who for the longest time has been one of the major faces of so-called Moderate Islam. From Spenglers terrific article:  Magdi Allam has a powerful voice as deputy editor of Italy’s newspaper of record, Corriere della Sera, and a bestselling author. For years he was the exemplar of “moderate Islam” in Europe, and now he has decided that Islam cannot be “moderate”.

FITNA Live Leak intimidated by Muslim Hordes…Google to the rescue…

Video: Fitna the Movie: Geert Wilders' film about the Quran (English)

Live Leak had to pull this video because:

“Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill informed reports from certain corners of the British media that could directly lead to the harm of some of our staff, Liveleak.com has been left with no other choice but to remove Fitna from our servers. This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people, from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised LiveLeak.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just for the support of one. Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one anothers culture. We stood for what we believe in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high.” Brennan

The Corner Translates Henry Kissinger and yup he thinks democratization is dumb too.

A long time ago in another life when I labored under the illusion that I could make a difference I wrote an over long but fact filled piece that got about 10 hits. Democracy a fools errand or our only way out? Jeane Kirkpatrick responds In this article I set about tearing up the idea that Democracy was some sort of a good idea. The idea for centering the article around Jeanne Kirkpatrick came to me after her passing while I was catching up on her brilliance as our UN Ambassador. Ronald Reagan knew how to pick them. In the particular piece that caught Reagan’s eye was a absolutely damning argument against forcing democracy onto everyone. You can read this wonderful article for yourself here.

Pentagon looking for ass with both hands comes up empty…Saddam’s Connections to Al Qaeda IS a Slam Dunk!

UPDATED: Ed Morrissey at Hot Air talking about the parts of the Pentagon report that were not covered in the Executive Summary.

Well it is just about time to publish this again seeing how the Pentagon insists on being dumb with reports like this one.  Next thing you know our government will be declaring that Islam is the religion of peace…oops.

Fun things I did on Summer Vacation…leaked secret attempts to stop nuclear war CHECK, leaked bungles of the CIA CHECK…weeee!

The audacity and idiocy of the press continues unabated. Certainly much of this is driven by the fact that no one feels much danger these days. But regardless believing that it is immoral to force a reporter to give up his sources when those very same sources are breaking some very serious laws strikes me as absurd. Naturally it doesn’t strike the press corps as absurd…they have a right to aid and abet treachery in our supposedly secret services.

Guess the Religion! ‘Father ‘stones 14-year-old daughter to death’

Besmirched this losers honor. Besmirched this losers honor. Besmirched this losers honor…holy smokes. And we have folks defending this vile 7th century religion?

The Republican Party FINALLY starts playing Hardball…not a moment too soon!

This is exactly the sort of commercial that needs to be run 24/7 on as many channels in swing states as possible come October. It would be even better if the commercial would show the obstruction tactics of the Senate Democrats. Senate Republicans have tried to punish Berkeley by removing money earmarked for them but have been blocked by the sneaky parliamentary actions of the Senate Democrats led by Senate Majority Leader Reid.

Devil May CAIR! Investor’s Business Daily forgets to mention C.A.I.R.’s other big friend President Bush.

Look I hate complaining about any large media outlet when they are taking an Democrats to task for supporting our enemies but…

CAIR’s boosters on the Hill, where it’s headquartered just three blocks from the Capitol, have known for some time that several people in positions of power within the group have been directly connected to terrorism and have either been prosecuted or thrown out of the country. Yet lawmakers have gone right on singing CAIR’s praises and doing its bidding. That agenda includes suing John Doe witnesses, censoring critics of Islamism and denying the FBI antiterror tools.

Walid Phares endorses Mitt

Some say that McCain’s strongest point is his desire to take the war to the enemy. But to me Bush’s weakest point was the fact that he never properly identified his enemy. Neither has McCain.

Mitt on the otherhand has indeed identified Global Jihadism as the enemy and he did it a long time ago. When I heard him speak in Baton Rouge near the beginning of the race he was talking about Global Jihadism. Don’t we want someone who will take the battle to the enemy instead of reacting to the enemy? I do.

Forcing Democracy into the Square Peg of Islam…

Andrew McCarthy gets it right again when he bemoans the idiocy of trying to impose democracy onto Islamic nations.

A recent CNN poll showed that 46 percent of Pakistanis approve of Osama bin Laden.

Aspirants to the American presidency should hope to score so highly in the United States. In Pakistan, though, the al-Qaeda emir easily beat out that country�s current president, Pervez Musharraf, who polled at 38 percent. Andrew C. McCarthy on Benazir Bhutto on National Review Online

U.S. Confirms Israeli Strikes Hit Syrian Targets…Saddam’s Nuclear Program Found?

You know I remember reports circulating that claimed Saddam’s nuclear goods such as they were had been moved to Syria. Those reports were squashed by an unlikely set of allies, anti war freaks and various intelligence sources who obviously didn’t want their respective agencies blamed for the loss. When you stop to think about who had anything to gain from finding Saddam’s weapons program in Syria the list is awfully short and doesn’t include anyone in the Government. We might have expected patriotic Democrats to highlight this administrations failure to stop the very action we went to war to prevent but on one hand most Democrats have thrown their lot in with MoveOn and the rest are laying low.

Democracy a fool’s errand or our only way out? Jeane Kirkpatrick responds

After 9/11 our rage demanded and common sense required that we strike back at our enemies. The American people did not require thattheir leaderswonder about our enemies motives. Commonsense declared that anyone willing to run passenger planes full of women, children and innocents into buildings full of the same could not be understood. Commonsense only required that we identify our enemies and then strike them from the face of the earth. Commonsense is in very short supply in Washington.

Transcript: Osama Bin Laden video from the Grave…

I call bullshit to this apparent attempt by the Jihadists to resurrect Bin Laden from the grave. The “experts” will point to the events the deadman mentions in this leftist inspired screed, such as the recent elections but if you watch carefully you will notice that the video freezes just about the time Osama Bin Gone starts into the areas the “experts” say is proof of this being recent.

SaneWorks.us – Society of Americans for National Existence , Home Page

Dramatic title for a web site no doubt but SANE delivers the goods. Going straight to the top of my great links list simply because no other site deals with the threat of Islam with quite the direct no nonsense way as SANE. Some tease their way close to the realization but at the last moment seem to pull back when they realize the inescapable conclusion of the path they are on will lead them to calling Islam what it is, a mortal threat to liberal democracy. That is very unstylish.

Strategy, Tactics, and Winning Wars a coherent article with a prescription for Victory!

That we have been limited by our existing media to hearing only two solutions to our war is a tragedy. Sometimes there are more than two sides to a story.

In our war we have only heard two sides of the story. We have the heard the surrender side from the Democrats and the limited war combined with the apology from the Republican side. Neither has proposed outright victory since both seem to be afflicted with the idea that we are to blame for Islam’s war against us.

Don Quixote’s letter to the President, tilting at windmills can be fun

UPDATE: September 22, 2003 was the original publish date for this missive. I believed back then and events have done nothing to convince me otherwise that the Administration was making a grevious error by trying to justify the war in Iraq using the violations of UN sanctions as justification. I guessed and apparently got it right that keeping the American people believing in the war was crucial. We have squandered that advantage by approaching the justification for war in Iraq as a legal exercise. To me it is no coincidence that support for the war was at it’s highest when the American people believed that Saddam had a part in 9/11.

Making a fuss about the drop in applause for Suicide Bombing…but oopsy Bin Laden still riding high!

While it might be good news that there is a drop in support for suicide bombing it is also true that it might be a tad early to call this election. Consider the “moderate” state of Indonesia where the acclaimed mass murderer Bin Laden is still showing as strongly as ever. Don’t let that Pew Poll fool ya in 2005 Binny Baby was polling at 38% so his support has actually edged up.

Unwarranted Attack on Diana West a response!

UPDATE: ApparentlyJim Guirarddoes not want torespondeither to my original question in the form of a comment originally left at his siteor this post which I left a link to on his site. I had hoped that my being published on PJ Media would at least draw out some sort of response. The commentators on Small Wars Journal were very provocative but after my comment there were no takers. Surely their position is defensible? Certainly I was more civil in my response than either Mr. Guirard or his commenters, does that intimidate them?

The Problem Child Iran, thinking out of the box…yes we can!

Was visiting Captains Quarters tonight and came across a post where the Captain is worrying about reports that Vice President Cheney is going to convince President Bush to launch a war against Iran.

Bill Clinton apologizes for allowing Al Qaeda to gather strength during his administration…well he should!

So then Bill Clinton a man who was busy seducing a fat intern while Al Qaeda launched it’s war on the United States has the sheer audacity to claim that President Bush has forgotten about Bin Gone. Oops I forget its an article of faith with the cowardly left that Bin Laden is, one still alive, two relevant even if he isn’t a collection of dust finding its way to hell. Watch and learn kiddies if you want to be a world class liar then you must make up the most outrageous sorts of lies. And Bill “the meaning of is” Clinton’s only legacy to the country is his legendary ability to tell people what they want to hear no matter how far away from the truth he must stray.

Iranian forces crossed Iraqi border…British forces wondering where mummy is

There was a time where the British would walk into the very maws of death to fight an enemy. Now when the enemy crosses the border they are “puzzled” and “alarmed” and badly on the “back-foot”…will someone please have some Australian troops sent in to lend some backbone?

Standards of evidence…who sets them…and whose side are the judges on?

Walter Williams over at Capitalism Magazine wonders about how we might create a credible disincentive to a nuclear attack on this country. He references a Victor Davis Hanson article that I discussed here. Not surprisingly he falls into the same trap as Dr. Hanson. This threat only works if those countries you are threatening believe without a doubt two very doubtful facts about the United States.

FBI talks about 6 Terrorists arrested in NJ but forgets to mention the 4 they let go…hmmmm.

This is a worrisome trend in our fight against the Islamic Radicals making war against our civilization. No not the fact that we are employing the FBI, though that isindeed worrisomee. What is the most worrisome is our Government agencies not telling us the score regarding the arrests they do make. See there were 10 Terrorists originally seen in the video. Four were not arrested because of lack of evidence. The four were not arrested even though they were seen in the video firing weapons and shouting Allah Akbar along with the six now in custody. Apparently there was not enough evidence to arrest them. The idiocy of treating this as a law enforcement issue was dealt with here.
