I have not posted a Fly By post of interesting articles in quite some time. But today’s news is not all that eye catching to post extensive comments on. So let’s go with a Fly By of interesting stories out there India has put it’s peace talks with Pakistan on hold as it also claims […]

The FISA-NSA “compromise” (more like a capitulation) has unnerved the far left and their crackpot enablers on the right. Some in Congress (and apparently the NY Times) want the NSA, a military unit, to get a warrant before it monitors terrorist enemies overseas. Why? Because they are afraid the terrorists may talk to someone in […]

When the liberals can clearly explain the victory Bush just had with Arlen Specter on the issue of FISA, the NSA and surveillance of terrorists overseas and their contacts here in the US there is no reason to do anything more than step aside and give them the stage. Take the time and visit here […]

I am all for forcing Syria to control Hizbollah and getting them to free the two Israeli soldiers – or face the Israeli reprisals. The London-based Arabic language newspaper Al-Hayat reported Saturday that “Washington has information according to which Israel gave Damascus 72 hours to stop Hizbullah’s activity along the Lebanon-Israel border and bring about […]

The World is at a cross roads that has been building since the 1970’s and the emergence of terrorism in the Muslim world.

He needs to appease the media’s conciences by making up some excuse this was all known and open before (which […]

In the most recent example of the news media impacting ongoing terrorist investigations where plans were being laid to bomb transportation tunnels into Manhatten, the news is the man arrested in Lebanon not only had ties to Canada, he was planning his return (ostensibly to go to the next phase of surveillance and final tactical […]

I am behind on my Council Posts so this week you folks get a twofer. For this week first. In the council category the winner was Bleeding Iraq by Right Wing Nut House, and second place went to Rant Control by Done With Mirrors. In the non-council category the winner was Singing Out of the […]

I have posted for some time on the delusional madness that is rampant in Iran’s leadership. The President of Iran thinks he is in final contact with the last Prophet, leading the way for his arrival and 70 virgins all around. The apoclyptic vision of martyrdom is absolutely scary when you add nuclear weapons to […]

Sen Jeff Sessions tried to sneak the border-only solution through the Senate by funding only the southern border fence in an amendment to a Bill dealing with Homeland Defense (separate from the Senate Comprehensive Immigration bill). Sessions should have spent time fixing the nutty things in the Senate’s Comprehensive bill instead of pulling a political […]
