As expected the US death toll in Iraq is continuing its downward trend in November. We are on the verge of now 6 straight months declining violence in Iraq:
he number of U.S. combat deaths in Iraq this month is headed toward the lowest monthly level since March 2006, reflecting a turnaround in U.S. efforts […]
Is anyone still so naive to still believe CNN is a ‘news’ network? They are a business built and staffed by liberals. They don’t care about fair and balanced, they want paychecks. Big fat paychecks. I said this when Hillary had her people push questions at her public events, but I […]
There are only two days left in the month of November and anything can happen in two days. But some preliminary numbers I am seeing show the level of violence is going to show another drop in November from the previous month, continuing a major downward trend from the January-February period this month. […]
Seems more and more people are turning on al-Qaeda because they keep getting captured in ever increasing numbers in all sorts of places. They seemed to be routed in Iraq, apparently also in Algeria, they have been pounded in Lebanon and are under pressure in Yemen. Pakistan is on the march against them […]
The good news keeps coming out of Iraq. First up - the US has been able to hand over responsibility for most security operations to the ever expanding and capable Iraqi forces:
Officials said the Iraq Army have been taking the lead in a majority of counter-insurgency and other operations in most provinces around the […]
The problem with Islamo Fascists is their warped belief only brutality impresses people. It is a classic signature of extreme insecurity, so it is doubly confounding to most people who are reasonably confident and not spooked to violence by the smallest things. For example, what is so impressive about starving pregnant women as […]
Either I vote my conscience in the 2008 Presidential election or I don’t vote in the 2008 GOP primary - that is apparently my choice.
If you’re planning to vote in Virginia’s February Republican presidential primary, be prepared to sign an oath swearing your Republican loyalty.
The State Board of Elections on Monday approved a state […]
To address humanity’s effect on CO2 levels one needs to focus its efforts on India and China since they host nearly half the world’s population. It doesn’t matter how Green Canada gets, they don’t have the population numbers to make a dent if India and China continue to spew CO2. But now we […]
So, forget the idiotic question that goes something like “do you want the American troops out of Iraq as soon as possible” because it is a senseless question just about everyone (me included) would support if they did not assume any hidden meanings. But outside that question a new Pew Poll show a stunning […]
For those terminal defeatists (which should just admit their own defeat instead of everyone else’s) the signs of Iraqi reconciliation progressing must be maddening. I wonder how it feels to see news like this and grasp for a grey cloud from all the silver lining:
Leading Shiite cleric in Iraq Ali Sistani Tuesday banned the […]
With al-Qaeda now spent in Iraq the focus of the war on terror is moving to Pakistan. There had been reports that the Pakistanis (with possible help from imbedded US Special Forces against certain targets) would start to purge Pakistan of foreign fighters that have been massing in that country for some months now. […]
Lots and lots happening related to Iraq and little time to post this morning - so back to the Fly By format.
Top of the list is the neutering of the far left’s attempts to pull out of Iraq and destroy our currently fragile progress that was so hard fought for (and sacrificed for) this past […]
To understand the depravity of Hollywood and the depth of their stilted, low brow lives one need only do the following exercise. Here is how it works. First you go to Michael Yon’s site and you remind yourself of the power of this real world image from Iraq.
Then you go to this review […]
Want to see the end of sectarian violence? You can see it when the Islamo Fascist start killing fellow Muslims because they are losing control. It is now the classic last ditch act of the terrorists to bomb and oppress fellow Muslims as their grip on them disappears. So what do people […]
Well, it only took the Thanksgiving Holiday for the Surrendercrats to realize they really “Scrooged” our brave men and women on the front lines of the war efforts Congress itself authorized - by overwhelming majorities - when they went on vacation and without funding their needs and protections. It was one of the most […]
