So it turns out we are fighting ALONG SIDE our mortal enemies al Qaeda in Libya: Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, the Libyan rebel leader, has said jihadists who fought against allied troops in Iraq are on the front lines of the battle against Muammar Gaddafi’s regime. Who the hell are running things in the White House? Is [...]

As protests ignite across the Muslim/Arab world I can only sit back and marvel at the historic times we live in. While there is a lot of hand wringing left and right, this widening call for freedom is the result expected when the US brought democracy to Iraq and Afghanistan. Once these two country demonstrated [...]

A lot of conservatives hope President Obama will fail at all he does – apparently that makes them feel better about themselves I guess. Nothing like feeling superior when someone else falters. But unlike Rush Limbaugh, I know Obama’s failures can come at a huge price. This time, when it comes to Egypt, I am [...]

The situation in Egypt is not simple or clear cut. I have hesitated to write about it simply because it is complex, unstable and could result in a regional war if not handled correctly. It opens the future to two warring philosophies that have been roiling the Middle East since 9-11 and America’s efforts to [...]

Attorney General Eric Holder has seen the enemy – and surprisingly it is not President George Bush for once: “I think that what is most alarming to me is the totality of what we see, the attorney general said. “Whether it is an attempt to bomb the New York City subway system, an attempt to [...]

The question at the core of the TSA security mess is what individual rights are We The People willing to give up for security. Are we willing to be groped and scanned, or should we use sophisticated profiling to detect evil human beings bent on mass murder? We face blood thirsty enemy in the form [...]

It seems the big October surprise, meant to influence this year’s US elections, comes from traitorous foreigners who (a) got their hands on 100′s of thousands of classified military documents and (b) dumped them on the public 12 days before a pivotal election. The whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks today released a trove of classified reports that [...]

I was not sure what to say this year on this 9th anniversary of 9-11. The nation is in a rut and heading down a bleak path. The political front is anything but serene or positive. And we have Americans who want to recognize this national day of memorial with book burnings, to show they [...]

Those yahoos in that FL church who plan to reenact one of the worst aspects of Nazi politically-correct policing (book burning) are demonstrating why just because an act may be legal, it still not ought to be done. Burning the Quran is not going to enrage the militants to new levels of hate. They already [...]

Updates Below! When you promise the gullible you can turn them all into TV-Land princes and princesses, and that world-wide Nirvana is one election away, you should expect a serious backlash when your facade of infinite wisdom and power comes crashing down to expose the experienced and impotent human being behind the curtain. I have [...]

So far what I have read on the leaked Afghan reports indicates there is a lot of ‘nothing’ there, except a detailed listing of how information flows from the field in times of war. The Washington Post is painfully muted in its declarations: One report from the spring of 2007 refers to witnesses who saw [...]

Updates At The End One thing that has bothered me throughout the recent incidents of terrorism inside the United States on President Obama’s watch is why more people are not raising alarm bells on how dysfunctional our national security has become? Where are those dedicated souls whose primary goal in life is protecting this nation [...]

The Bush administration was raked over the coals, unfairly in my opinion, for recognizing how our national security guidelines allowed terrorists free reign once inside our borders prior to 9-11, and for taking steps to correct this deadly problem. The left-wing nuts went ape over the changes President Bush instituted, changes which required the Attorney [...]

Hold the presses! The United States Attorney General, Eric Holder, has made a mind boggling discovery this past week and he went on the Sunday morning talk shows to share this historic insight with the American people: Mr. Holder acknowledged the abrupt shift of tone, characterizing the administration’s stance as a “new priority” and “big [...]

Updates Below As we learn more and more about Faisal Shahzad, the Times Square Bomber who is also a naturalized American citizen, we also are seeing signs that something is going horribly wrong inside the classified halls of the Obama administration’s war on terrorists. As I noted in previous posts, news reports that emerged since [...]
