Interestingly enough there are times when the far left get their hands on detailed information which is of interest to all. Of course these people spin this information to prop up their radical, fringe views – but nonetheless there is an interesting core of truth at the center of all the propaganda. And sometimes it […]

Some interesting news is out there from the war on terror, of course being swamped by the news of Spitzer’s fall from grace.

This should be interesting, a Pakistani court has ordered the arrest of one of the most notorious Taliban/al-Qaeda leaders in Pakistan: A Pakistani anti-terrorism court issued an arrest warrant Monday for a pro-Taliban commander operating in the country’s restive tribal areas, accusing him of masterminding the murder of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, officials said.

The terrorists are clearly repeating the mistakes they made in Iraq. Once in power their violent blood lust turns what were supporters into enemies. Check out this opinion piece from an Egyptian paper (but seems to be from a Pakistani author) and how it portrays al-Qaeda and the Taliban: Seemingly indiscriminate, the targets have been […]
