It seems there are a lot of people who just play lip service to democratic beliefs. President Musharraf has the votes to win, and they appear to be overwhelmingly in his favor: Pakistani military ruler Pervez Musharraf has won a presidential vote, officials and state television said Saturday, despite a court ruling that the result […]

Interesting poll out from Gallup. It seems Americans will support either the Petraeus/Bush Plan or the Democrats Plan to lower troop levels in Iraq. If forced to choose it is about 50-50 with a slight edge (at the moment) to the Dems. This must be shocking to the left that they are not seen as […]

It seems US Intelligence thinks al-Qaeda may be preparing some spectacular attacks in major European cities: The CIA has warned counterparts in Europe of the possibility of terror attacks in several countries, with Paris’ sewage system among the suggested targets, a French official said Thursday. The US spy agency warned that al-Qaeda agents may be […]

A lot rides on tomorrow’s election for President in Pakistan. If Musharraf wins then I would expect to see serious action taken against al-Qaeda and the Taliban in the norther regions of Pakistan where they terrorists are now massing. Pakistan’s election is not by popular vote, so Musharraf can easily win (or lose). The BBC […]

As Anbar went through its final transition from al-Qaeda strong hold to al-Qaede hell hole there was one last burst of violence from al-Qaeda. It seems to be their way to increase their abysmal and brutal mistakes that led to their defeart in the first place. In that same pattern we see al-Qaeda attacking more […]

Check updates below I would love to see the intelligence estimates on al-Qaeda recruitment efforts. My guess is they are way down. There was recent reporting showing a severe drop off in fresh recruits going into Iraq. Much of that is due to stepped up security. But much of it is also due to al-Qaeda’s […]

As we pick up more and more al-Qaeda leaders, we pick up more and more intel and are able to chase down and roll up the al-Qaeda leadership. One of the more interesting intelligence successes to go public was the find of 500 names and information on recent al-Qaeda recruits. The fact it became public […]

Update: The authorities are really serious about getting this information out – they have provided photos of the names on the list! I guess if you see your name on the list you should be really worried. – end update At first I was wondering if this news had been leaked to the media because […]

The Strategy Page has a good look at what has happened in Iraq over the last year and why we are on the path to success there, not a path of defeat desired by those strange people on the left who fantasize about a defeated America: The Sunni Arab terrorist campaign, an attempt to regain […]
