Update: Civilian deaths in Iraq also plummeted by 50% since one month ago as well: At least 522 Iraqi civilians and security troopers were killed during the month, according to figures compiled by The Associated Press from Iraqi police and military reports. That’s down sharply from April’s figure of 1,080 and the lowest monthly total […]

As I predicted a few days ago, Moqtada’s call for Friday protests by his followers has fallen way short of previous protests: Thousands of people heeded a call from anti-American cleric Moqtada al-Sadr to protest talks between Washington and Baghdad on keeping U.S. troops in Iraq beyond 2008, but turnout on Friday was lower than […]

What is totally laughable about the events in Iraq over the last few weeks is this lowly blogger, working another day job while living in Northern Virginia outside DC, and by simply reading articles and reports available over the internet, was able to get a better handle on what was transpiring in Iraq than the […]

It is starting to become apparent, even to the liberal western media, that the Islamo Fascism that the religious extremists embraced across the Middle East is being rejected by the Muslim Street. Even those who still stand by the religious jackboot approach have been openly acknowledging their loss of support, as the true violent image […]

al-Qaeda, like all Islamo Fascist groups, exist by the jackboot and violence.  In Iraq al-Qaeda’s last bastion in Mosul is being purged by Iraqi and US forces, and the effort is producing stunning results: Major-General Mark Hertling, the commander of U.S. forces in northern Iraq, said U.S. and Iraqi troops had inflicted serious damage on […]

There are some very naive and delusional liberals who still think the Iraq government victory over the Mahdi Army criminals is actually a victory for Sadr and his Sadrists movement.  But they are simply grasping at straws so they do not have to face how pathetically wrong they have been on the Maliki action itself, […]

The successes in Iraq keep mounting to the point even the die-hard liberal SurrederMedia has had to admit defeat – for the terrorists and extremists.  Check out this NY Times article, which addresses Sadr City, but reflects the reality of the entire Iraq war: Operation in Sadr City Is an Iraqi Success, So Far Iraqi […]

Update:  BTW, I predicted back on April 7th Sadr would surrender in the end.  Looks like I got one right!  – end update The final cleansing of the Mahdi Army control in Iraq is happening today as Iraqi Forces swarm in to take control of the last bastion of the Mahdi Army, at the relief […]
