Contrary to the ever-wrong SurrenderMedia (remember the quagmire in Afghanistan, and the failed invasion of Iraq when a sandstorm came through halting progress towards Baghdad for a few hours, or the failure of The Surge?) seems to be barking up the wrong tree again. The myth is al-Qaeda is regrouping and growing stronger in Pakistan. […]

If Iran is not supporting al-Qaeda efforts why is it so many terrorists in Europe use Tehran as their transit point between Europe and the training facilities and gathering forces of al-Qaeda inside Pakistan? On April 1, the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) on April 1 notified leaders of Germany’s military, the United Nations and […]

As was noted in a previous post western intelligence has been able to get inside al-Qaeda cells and disrupt them. It marks a big difference between the post 9-11 and pre 9-11 worlds, one which is really hurting al-Qaeda. Before 9-11 al-Qaeda thrived due to our ignorant bliss and lack of attention to threats. Today, […]

And this time we have the assistance of Ayman al-Zawahiri, al-Qaeda’s number two, who lays out al-Qaeda’s intentions if the Democrats implement […]

Some interesting background articles on al-Qaeda and the war have been coming out and worth the read (with some skepticism of course). The LA Times ran an article looking at al-Qaeda which had some interesting details: If Al Qaeda strikes the West in the coming months, it’s likely the mastermind will be a stocky Egyptian […]

Trends and averages. Very important concepts in understanding reality and the world. For example, you could have 3,000 souls lost on one day in September to terrorists and claim we are losing 3,000 lives a day in the war on terror, or you can average that number of the year to discover the rate of […]
