I posted recently on how the Mahdi Army is being whooped across Iraq, from Baghdad to Basra and posts in between (see here and here). Karl over at Protein Wisdom has caught the LA Times grasping for some news of US-Iraq defeat in all this victory, but having to admit to all the victory anyway: […]

Americans need to be wary of two-faced pols – OK, that sound obvious and easy but it isn’t. Pols have become quite adept at telling lies that are hard to detect or can be ‘parsed’ to mean something totally opposite (it all depends on the what the meaning of ‘is’ is – of course). One […]

The truth is AQ designated Iraq their key battleground and shifted their resources and fighters there – where they have been decimated and cling to […]

It is not a good sign when the enemies of America are saying the same thing as Presidential candidates. It means the two see common cause. So what to make of Ayman Zawahiri’s claims the US has failed in Iraq: Al Qaeda’s second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahri said in an audio message to mark five years since […]

I was collecting articles on a post showing the end game coming in Iraq for Sadr and his Mahdi Army but Bill Roggio beat me to the punch today in a much better post than I was going to put together. Update

OK, I am not sure how much credence to put on this news but apparently al-Qaeda is down to its last 75 Arab fighters in Afghanistan: From many hundreds, al-Qaeda now has fewer than 75 Arabs involved in the Afghan “war on terror” theater, but the group is more lethal in that it has successfully […]

After almost 7 years of war in the heart of Islam, since the attacks of 9-11 on America, America is now in the process of choosing its next President. Because the choices are stark and offer huge headaches or huge opportunities to the terrorists, the Islamo Fascists will want to send a clear signal to […]
