Hint On Libby Deliberations

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2007

An interesting glimpse into the Libby trial deliberations has come out as the essence of the jury’s aborted question to Judge Walton has been made public:
Jurors seemed to want to know whether the charge hinges on whether Libby’s version of the conversation is true or whether what he told Cooper was true. As Walton and […]

Did Litvinenko And Berezovsky Support Chechyan Terrorists?

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2007

I always wondered why the Chechen terrorists, just a day after Litvinenko died, named him a martyr for the Chechen cause. It was one of the indicators that Litvinenko was more likely smuggling Po-210 to Putin’s enemies than being the target of a Po-210 armed Putin assassin. How a Russian could become a […]

Tied Turning Against Insurgents In Iraq

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2007

It was only a matter of time before the Iraqi’s would realize they were the ones dyinig for Jihad, not the Americans or the Iraqi government. The fact is al Qaeda has killed more Muslims than anyone in this global conflict, and they are fast approaching the level of bloodshed only a few, like […]

Another Dem Iraq-Debacle In The Works

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2007

The Democrats, having retreated in full from their attempts to (1) push non-binding legislation conveying their opposition to try and win in Iraq, (2) failed debates on whether to just defund the war and (3) the to the “slow bleed” (which Murtha a coined, not Reps) strategy - which is a plan to leave […]

Leftist Surrender Monkeys Out In Force

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2007

A failed attempt to kill Cheney was not only a disappointment to the lunatic fringe on the left, but now a clear sign we should run away from the fledgling democracy now in Afghanistan (as well as run away from Iraq). Why is it the left are so weak kneed at the same time […]

Wild Market Ride

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2007

If I had to guess (and I am not a finance expert) it is possible the worst of the global correction is over. It started in China and hit here, averaging 3% everywhere. The last of the markets are being hit now. Japan’s index started 3% down and seems to be levelling off […]

Is UK Hedging Its Bets In Litvinenko Investigation?

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2007

An interesting comment from Andre Lugovoi in recent days has me thinking the UK investigation may be hedging its bets into how Litvinenko ended up poisoned by Po-210:
Law-enforcement bodies of Russia and Great Britain are investigating 3 criminal cases at once, all of which concern Alexander Litvinenko’s poisoning, said former KGB officer Andrei Lugovoi, who […]

Richard Clarke - Techno Idiot

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2007

ABC News’ The Blotter is going to need to do some serious research and corrections if the story they ran about a pending Y2K like disaster is as bad as I think it is. I do systems engineering of larger, distributed systems, most of which have something to do with Space (but not all). […]

Democrat Tax Cheaters

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2007

It seems the Clinton’s have been playing a shell game with their income, shuffling it through a supposed charity just so they can hide it from the tax man. Notice the revenues versus the charitable contributions in this story:
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and former president Bill Clinton have operated a family charity since […]

Islamo Fascists Strike Back, The Crazy Left Applauds

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2007

Update: Michelle has much more disgusting behavior from the heartless left, with pictures of the carnage these acts result in to further emphasize the lunacy of the left.
Update: Newsweek has a good “bird’s eye view” of the Afghanistan incident from reporters travelling with the VP. - end update
The Islamo Fascists must have their back […]

Chasing The Almighty Euro, At All Costs

Posted by AJStrata on February 26th, 2007

It seems the UK had plans to restrict the Frankenstein monster of hybrid human-animal creations, but the desire for money trumped common sense:
Plans to outlaw the creation of human-animal hybrid embryos for potentially life-saving stem cell research are to be dropped after a revolt by scientists.
The proposed government ban on fusing human DNA with animal […]

Bin Laden’s Man In Europe Deported

Posted by AJStrata on February 26th, 2007

Amazing. It seems Bin Laden’s ‘right hand man’ in Europe has been deported from the UK and will now get a taste of justice back in his home country of Jordan. Of course, after al Qaeda has been going around killing people in hotels attending weddings, the welcome will probably not be a […]

UK Shifting Forces To Afghanistan

Posted by AJStrata on February 26th, 2007

The liberal western media is a laughing stock of ignorance and fantasy. After wild and irresponsible reports of the UK leaving Iraq (which turned out to be over the period of more than a year and on the condition of successful handover to local authorities) we now find out some of the troop movements […]

Dems Surrender On Iraq Surrender

Posted by AJStrata on February 26th, 2007

The Democrats caved today on their insane plans to run from Iraq, probably due to the fact the country was turning against them (polls here and here) and probably in no small part to the warning shot Joe Lieberman sent across their creaky bow today. Needless to say, it is the Democrats who are […]

Did Iran Admit To Exporting Death & Destruction To Iraq?

Posted by AJStrata on February 26th, 2007

I just heard on Wolf Blitzer’s 7:00 PM Eastern “Situation Room” one of CNN’s British reporters say a recent statement by Iran regarding the EFPs and elements found in Iraq (a big cache was just found in Baghdad) was tantamount to an acknowledgement that Iran was exporting these weapons because he claimed it would now […]
