Update: Reuters has more details on the stunning changes in Iraq. They hillariously claim the 65-82% drop in violence in the areas now purged of al-Qaeda by The Surge is “Gradual Progress” – demonstrating the depth of their denial and bias. And they note that those locations al-Qaeda was chased to had – surprise! – […]

Again, my apologies for the lack of posting. I have barely had time to breathe between business travel and helping my parents get through the initial stages of my mother’s broken arm. I have a little bit of a breather here before I begin my next three weeks of business travel. But while not posting […]

I first predicted Diyala would be the tipping point in Iraq for al-Qaeda (destroyed), the Iraqi government (successful), America’s efforts in Iraq (successful) and the Democrats’ future (destroyed) in this post back in mid April. At that point very few people understood the trend lines shaping up in Iraq. Anbar was basically cleared at that […]

Mea Culpa Major Update: I have called on others to admit when they are wrong in their initial assessments and actions on stories recently.

I am no an expert on Islam or the Middle East. I have a bit of a gift for observation and sorting large amounts of information for gems of insight and key importance. I can see trends sets of complex information. They are traits very useful to engineers and scientists. I believe they help me […]
