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

April 19, 2008 –

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 [...]

Seagulls cited for disturbing sleepy Cornish village delightfully entertaining 700-strong party of Muslims whose 5am call to prayer was interrupted by their nasty cawing. Mohammed said to not be amused.

March 20, 2008 –

Multiculturalism is such a sweet success in England.
Another resident said: “I loved it, I was hanging out of the window trying to hear. It’s a unique sound that reminds me of travelling and I’d much rather hear it than church bells.”
Indeed?!?!
Yesterday Muslim participants said the seagulls were louder than the call to prayers.
A mother of [...]

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

March 6, 2008 –

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 [...]

What a great idea…training FATAH terrorists.

August 22, 2007 –

Just to prove just how stupid we can be…we are training terrorists.  Did the body snatchers grab President Bush and replace him with an idiot or have we been this goddamn stupid all along? Hat tip to Andrew McCarthy who is just about as angry as I am about this.

Candidate Bush on Nation Building and Can Islam and Freedom survive one another?

October 18, 2006 –

Democracy as a solution to terror.
Here is candidate Bush discussing nation building during a debate with Gore in 2000.
I don’t think so. I think what we need to do is convince people who live in the lands they live in to build the nations. Maybe I’m missing something here. I mean, we’re going to have kind [...]

Red Cross Ambulance Incident a measure of how important this war is?

August 29, 2006 –

UPDATES: Corrected for clarity and spelling errors…sorry but busy as a one armed paper hanger.
A long time ago in another life my mother warned me about the Red Cross and it appears that as usual Mom got it right. Lots of money ill spent by corrupt people more intent on making money than helping people.
Now [...]

Muhammed a radical? Islam Hijacked?

August 22, 2006 –

A while back, during the riots in France, I asked a question: As we watch one of the most beautiful countries in the world get torn apart by the sort of thuggery that has always seemed to be part of Islam I wonder, would Muhammed have defined himself as an Islamist? How would President Bush [...]

President Bush tongue tied because the world too scary?

August 21, 2006 –

That is the interesting theory of Dean Barnett over at Hugh’s place.
So why doesn’t he communicate it? My theory is that he just doesn’t think America is ready to hear it. Whatever the case, I highly doubt his purported difficulties expressing himself lie at the heart of the matter.
I think it might go a bit [...]

Churchill agrees to a truce with Hitler, League of Nations and France to monitor Nazi stand down and disarmament.

Now for you slow readers out there Brain-Surgery with Spoons has hooked you up. Unbelievably he was able to secure a recording of the original Walter Cronkite recording of this sad tale. This is so funny I am moving the post up so all 20 of my readers can find it!
Thanks to LGF Watch for [...]

Stateless Terror …or how the Government avoids holding Iran and Iraq responsible for Terror

August 18, 2006 –

The entire house of cards upon which the meme that all terror is being promulgated by stateless actors is shaking pretty darn hard. But we can count on both the governments committing such acts and the governments which are supposed to be stopping such acts to deny it. It is a lot handier for both [...]

Islam and Democracy….the debate on National Review Corner.

August 16, 2006 –

John Podhoretz in a surprisingly heated debate with Andrew McCarthy. JPod offers up a defense of the idea that bringing democracy to the Middle East can win the war on terror for us. This is in line with the Neo Conservative view that all we need is love and everything will be alright. No one apparently [...]

Idiots guide to Victory

August 16, 2006 –

Defining victory seems to have gotten complicated in these modern times. For instance instead of winning wars we send signals and obviously if the public buys into that nonsense well then it makes it very easy for politicians to declare victory. Witness President Bush attempting to describe the Israeli retreat as a Victory against Hezb’Allah. [...]

Israel agree’s to a Hudna with Hezb’Allah and Iran…didn’t work out so well for the Kuraysh

Like this wasn’t predictable?
Arutz Sheva – Israel National News:Neighbors Smell Blood in Israeli Cease-Fire Acceptance 16:53 Aug 13, ‘06 / 19 Av 5766 by Ezra HaLevi Arabs and Muslims from Iran, Hizbullah and the PA are celebrating Israel’s acceptance of the UN ceasefire, dubbing it a “surrender” and calling on Arab states to attack the [...]

Israeli PM Accepts Cease-Fire Deal…ISRAEL DEFEATED…the West loses another one.

August 11, 2006 –

The monumental error of this boggles the mind. The sacrifice of the Israelis who have lost their lives fighting to end Hezballah’s reign of terror in Southern Lebanon has all been for naught. The poor people of Lebanon whose lives, homes and families were destroyed in the war have paid a dear price for nothing. [...]

UK Bomb Plot The Big One or an attempt to regain stature?

August 11, 2006 –

This is a very disjointed attempt at collecting my thoughts on our terrible peril. We are at danger right now like no other time in the history of our nation.
Against our hopes we find ourselves spiraling away into a war against both Sunni Radicals and Shiite Radicals. The question that might be asked is should [...]

WSJ: Scholar Warns Iran’s Ahmadinejad May Have ‘Cataclysmic Events’ In Mind For August 22

In a WALL STREET JOURNAL op-ed Tuesday, Princeton’s Bernard Lewis writes: “There is a radical difference between the Islamic Republic of Iran and other governments with nuclear weapons. This difference is expressed in what can only [...]

Our war? Nah not enough Americans have died yet…we are waiting till they do! Tony Snow.

August 7, 2006 –

Andrew McCarthy a former US Prosecutor of Terrorism doesn’t appear to be thrilled with this statement by Tony Snow. Gee why not after all Tony is banking on something that is pretty certain to be true.
Andrew C. McCarthy on War on National Review Online Snow responded with an extraordinary statement of his own: “Why would [...]

Israeli army poorly equipped compared to Hezballah?

August 5, 2006 –

Was struck by this photo essay linked by PJ Media . Watching Israeli soldiers prepare to go to war with those we should be fighting was bad enough but then I noticed something else something that made it even worse for me. Go take a look and see if you notice what I saw…then scroll [...]

Iran laughing at President Bush’s words of September 20, 2001

August 4, 2006 –

Words, merely empty words meant more to calm a nation than a clarion call to arms, is that all these words were President Bush? Saddam was a terrific start even if it was executed haphazardly due your administrations confusion, and no I don’t consider Afghanistan a start it was merely a warm up. With Iran [...]

Tony Blair singing Kumbaya…and other wastes of time while a war rages

August 4, 2006 –

I had exactly the same reaction to this drivel of nonsense spewed by Tony Blair as quoted by Daily Pundit. Was actually puzzled why Wretchard would think it worthwhile enough to post then realized he must be alerting us to the continuing idiocy of our “strongest” ally. This same “ally” who probably forced upon us [...]

More thoughts on the War against Islamic Terror

August 3, 2006 –

Was doing some research regarding a post I am working on and came across this March 2003 interview of Dr. Thomas Barnett author of “The Pentagon’s New Map”. This book sought to define the sort of wars we might find our country involved in these coming years and was so revolutionary and at once commonsensical [...]

Why we will lose this war against Islam

August 1, 2006 –

A sampling from around the blogsphere regarding our war against Islamic “radicals”. It is not a time to be optimistic about our chances of success given the viewpoints that are starting to spring up. In this country we do not seem to have anyone in any position of influence be it political, national press or [...]

Mel Gibson apologizes…Drudge Red Light Report!

August 1, 2006 –

I hope that he really means this and that someone will step forward to help him. Mel has been one of my favorite artists for a very long time. Passion was one of the best movies I have seen in my life. All of my life I have believed that Israel had a right to exist and that the Jewish [...]

Shocked that the CIA missed on the estimate of Hezballah abilities…great work guys!

UPDATE: Rightwing Nuthouse with more
Man I tell you I was shocked, shocked I tell you when I read that our intelligence agencies were caught “off guard” by the sophistication of the missiles being fired into Israel. After all they have had such a sterling record of prognostication these last few years, being caught “off guard” [...]

Perhaps the most dramatic and heartrending pictures of war I have seen…

July 18, 2006 –

Those who have followed my postings since 9/11 know that I am what is defined as a Hawk. I believe fervently that the war must be taken to the enemy before the enemy takes it to us. When I searched for my sister who I understood to be working in one of the towers on [...]

The Stakes of the War on Terror in a letter from Dad to his sons….Thanks Israpundit

June 30, 2004 –

Certainly one can quibble with a few items in this piece but overall this is certainly the best post I have seen on the stakes of this war. Certainly he has spoken a truth that is seldom uttered even by conservative blogs, we can lose. This is such a striking insight that if that was [...]
