It seems the reasons behind the nutty and dangerous behavior of the Iranians is the fact the US coalition in Iraq may be holding upwards of 300 Iranian-linked prisoners caught red handed assisting in the kiling of US troops. So let’s recap: Iranians commit an act of war by working with Islamo Fascists to kill […]

In the category of “dumb terrorists tricks” we have

The Iranian leadership is just plain stupid. Now they are claiming the British Marines, who were in full uniform and inspecting an Iraqi boat in Iraqi waters, are now spies. Unlike Iranian military members caught in Iraq, who were out of uniform and supplying the terrorists, Iran thinks someone in uniform is a spy??? There […]

Does anyone think the fact Iran kidnapped British Marines searching an Iraqi boat in Iraqi waters has nothing to do with the fact the UN Security Council is about to vote a new round of sanctions against Iran tomorrow?

The Great Wizard of Kos himself penned a pathetic rationalization on why a Bill that fully funds the war, has no binding control on next year’s budget and efforts (that comes later this summer) and has benchmarks that only need to show ‘progress’ (whatever that is) is actually good.
