Folks might find it interesting that my observations on how the Muslim community was reacting to the violent nature of al-Qaeda’s mass killings is being born out in an poll soon to be out, according to The Drudge Report which has this pending headline “Global poll finds Muslims increasingly reject suicide bombings… Developing…”. I noted […]

It is well known that Zawahiri has been much more active recently, and that has led to speculation that his activities will expose the hideout of the leadership. I referenced this possibility in a previous post. And there are efforts within Pakistan to address the consolidation of al-Qaeda forces in Pakistan: Thirty-five militants and two […]

al-Qaeda is frustrated. So frustrated with the lack of purity in Iraq it has been on a relentless campaign of mass killings. But not mass killings of Americans or Westerners. Mass killings of Muslims, the very people al-Qaeda purports to represent. Today we see the bottomless brutality of al-Qaeda on display again as it attacks […]

I was stunned to see this in the LATimes, typically a very liberal news outlet. But here is the view of an Iraqi in Baghdad regarding the progress there (H/T RCP Saturday): IN THE AMERICAN media, Iraq’s steady progress toward security is frequently overshadowed by news of the latest act of mass terrorism.

Iran needs to be sent a big, loud, serious message that supplying our enemies make you an enemy in our war in Iraq. And we seem to be finding more and more concrete evidence of Iranian weapons smuggling, as we did in capturing some terrorists with links to Iran inside the Iraqi border: Coalition forces […]

More and more areas of Iraq are joining forces to protect their areas from al-Qaeda and Mahdi terrorists: U.S. forces have brokered an agreement between Sunni and Shi’ite tribal leaders to join forces against al Qaeda and other extremists, extending a policy that has transformed the security situation in western Anbar province to this area […]

The SurrenderMedia is just now grasping what has been happening in Iraq with regards to al-Qaeda. Only now do they understand that human beings are not tolerant to just any level of brutality and violence. The SurrenderMedia are finally groping their way of their “made for TV” view of the world. Iraqis are repulsed by […]

I am off for a bit of a vacation weekend, so my apologies if comments get stuck in the spam queues. But I will leave knowing some at the NY Times finally see the light and realize America is playing a critical role in stabiltizing Iraq and inhibiting violence: Well, I think, quite simply that […]

Needless to say the SurrenderMedia is not interested in Iraq because they are obsessed with reporting what is happening in Congress about Iraq than what is happening in Iraq. As if the lense of Congress can shed clarifying light onto the Iraq situation. Congress tends to be more fiction than fact, hyperbole than insight, and […]
