Updates at End The fighting in Iraq is definitely entering a much different phase than the one Iraq and America faced around this same time last year. Last year al-Qaeda was on the rise and ramping up a month’s long period of atrocities, carnage and massacres against Iraqi Muslims. It was a deliberate PR effort […]

If I had to vote for a Democrat for President Sen Joseph Lieberman would be at the top of my list. He understands the reality we are in, and he also has no problem pointing out the delusions of those who refuse to face up to that reality: “Iraq has become the singular litmus test […]

In the continuing wave of incredible events which demonstrate the sea change in Iraq’s fortunes a Sunni Sheik, who now leads the Anbar Awakening which rose up to purge Anbar Province of al-Qaeda, has come to America to personally thank the community of soldiers who helped liberate his people from al-Qaeda’s butchers and the atrocities […]

It seems the Surge and other coordinated efforts by the Iraq government have had a serious impact on the logistics train the terrorists require to sustain their atrocities against Iraqi Muslims: November 9, 2007: The various terrorist groups in Iraq, especially the Sunni Arabs and al Qaeda, appear to be having supply problems. In a […]

The Democrats are playing a losing game – specifically because they keep pushing for a US failure at all costs. Yesterday the Surrencercrats announced they would ONLY fund a defeat in Iraq, as they play General and President and work to create a Vietnam out of all the progress seen in Iraq since the Surge: […]

I ran across an interesting poll trend regarding America’s views on Iraq (see here for the graph of opinion trends and here for the rationalized denial things are changing). The trends in public opinion track, with a reasonable rersponse delay due to some reasonable ‘wait and see’ hesitancy, with the results of the Surge on […]

While the years long fight against Islamo Fascism is taking a toll on Americans, we all know we cannot afford to lose this battle. We all know, now that we have al-Qaeda on the ropes, the last thing we can do is let up and start trying to reason with them as equals. The murderous […]

As events in Iraq tear apart the fantasy world of the liberal media and congressional leaders – who see the world through stale, Vietnam-era eyes – we will see a “second awakening” as the liberal media faces up to reality. The first “awakening” was of course the wave of realization that washed through the Iraqi […]

Oh my, it seems things really are not as bad in Baghdad as the SurrenderMedia and Surrendercrats keep fantasizing from their perches in DC and NY City: Twilight brings traffic jams to the main shopping district of this once-affluent corner of Baghdad and hundreds of people stroll past well-stocked vegetable stands, bakeries and butcher shops. […]

The America forces Surge and Iraqi Muslim uprising against al-Qaeda atrocities apparently combined to cleanse Baghdad of al-Qaeda (note, there will be the occasional attack – I am not being Pollyannish – but they will now have to be executed from bases outside of Baghdad): American forces have pushed Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia out of […]
