al-Qaeda More Spectacular, But Less Effective

al-Qaeda is clearly losing in Iraq. Their promised increase in death and destruction is just not panning out. Yes, they can kill a lot of people on occasion. But even while their attacks are becoming more spectacular they are also becoming fewer, farther between and more and more in isolated areas not city centers: A […]

Eye On Pakistan II

I found this interesting site with statistics on the violence in Pakistan related to terrorists. It shows an ever increasing level in violence, one that almost mirrors the decline in violence in Iraq: As seen at the linked site the death toll has risen all year, but the violence is localized to some degree: There […]

Most Americans Believe US Winning War On Terrorism

Want to shake up the 2008 race and nip the Obama juggernaut in the bud? Simple, start winning the War on Terrorism and put the lie to the Dems and Obama’s view on terrorism (surrender at all costs): The latest Rasmussen Reports tracking poll finds that 43% of Americans now say the U.S. and its […]

Eye On Pakistan

More things to watch as allied forces zero in on Bin Laden and the suspected al-Qaeda sanctuary in the Waziristan area of Pakistan. First is the arrest of a Bin Laden body guard, which I assume is becoming quite familiar with the mechanics of water-boarding: The alleged security coordinator and bodyguard for Al Qaeda terror […]

Huckabee Is Crusading

I simply do not recall this kind of rhetoric ever coming from George Bush: “When we become believers, it’s as if we have signed up to be part of God’s Army, to be soldiers for Christ,” Huckabee told the enthusiastic audience. I understand the intent and can dial back the words to mean something much […]

al-Qaeda Will Be Destroyed By Muslims

It is becoming clear that al-Qaeda is fighting for its very life because all of its big targets are Muslims – not Americans. This happened in Anbar when Iraqis began to turn on al-Qaeda as well. al-Qaeda started bombing mercilessly to attempt to cower the Sunnis there back into submission. The result was even more […]

Obama Pulls An al-Gore

Yes, that is a deliberate typo on “al-Gore”. Combining the propaganda BS of a Baghdad Bob (which the SurrenderMedia just couldn’t stop believing or reporting) with the ability to exaggerate and self-fantasize, Barrack Obama has pulled one of the dumbest al-Gore stunts I have ever seen (H/T Lori Byrd) I wasn’t going to post anything […]

UK Confirms al-Qaeda Behind Bhutto Assassination, US Looks At Covert Ops In Pakistan

In what should be shocking news the UK authorities investigating Benazir Bhutto’s killing have confirmed the intercept of a phone call, in which an extremist leader in Pakistan admits his people did the deed, is authentic. The government is sticking to its assertion that the assassination was ordered by Baitullah Mehsud, an Islamic militant with […]

Something Is Happening In Pakistan

Benazir Bhutto’s assassination is not only reverberating against Musharraf and the United States. There is a rising backlash in the country against extremists and their bloody and deadly methods. More voices are coming out against the terrorist nature of the Taliban and al-Qaeda, there are calls to eject the Afghan refugees who fled the US […]

More Gains In Iraq

Thankfully George Bush is going to leave office with a big (and accurate) “Mission Accomplished” next to the war in Iraq line item. The progress in that country is snowballing fast. I had some good news stories from Iraq this morning, and more from the latter half of the day showed up. Here they are: […]
