Victorious Week for US and Coalition Forces

From the report issued by the Multi National Corp-Iraq:
BAGHDAD – Iraqi Army and Coalition Forces killed a rogue Jaysh Al-Mahdi Special Group cell commander July 11 during an intelligence driven operation in eastern Baghdad.
"Iraqi Army and Coalition Forces entered the residence to detain Said Jaffer for questioning. When the insurgent commander brandished a pistol, the team verbally instructed him in Arabic to drop his weapon. However, Jaffer refused to comply and the team engaged the insurgent with well-aimed and proportional fire...Intelligence shows a clear link to his group partnering with outside Persian (read Iranian-Sparker911) extremists, whose goal is to destroy the legitimate government of Iraq and create instability in the region...Coalition Forces served as advisers during the operations. No Iraqi or Coalition Forces members were injured during the operation. (Iraqis are stepping up-Sparker911)

Coalition Forces captured a suspected vehicle-borne improvised explosive device cell leader southeast of Baghdad. During the raid, the ground forces also detained eight suspected terrorists tied to the bombing cell.

Coalition Forces captured an alleged IED operative and two individuals suspected of emplacing IEDs for him.

A Coalition Forces raid northwest of Baghdad netted five suspected terrorists who are allegedly tied to a chlorine VBIED facilitator in Anbar province.

Soldiers from 2nd Battalion, 16th Infantry Regiment, based out of Fort Riley, Kan., detained five suspects and recovered two rocket-propelled grenade launchers, three grenades and one improvised explosive device in an operation in the New Baghdad District of the Iraqi capital.

Soldiers with 2nd Battalion, 17th Field Artillery, a Fort Carson, Colo.-based unit detained eight suspected insurgents in the Zafarniya District. They also recovered circuit boards, wires, timers, soldering tools and nine million Iraqi dinar during the raid

Iraqi and U.S. Soldiers nabbed 46 men suspected of involvement with al Qaeda affiliated terror networks July 12 under the cover of darkness, east of Lutifiyah, Iraq.Troops of the 4th Brigade, 6th Iraqi Army Division and Soldiers of the 2nd Battalion, 15th Field Artillery Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division (Light Infantry) out of Fort Drum, N.Y., air assaulted in the area, and then began searching reeds along canals for weapons caches. The combined air assault detained 29 men on the Iraqi army’s list of persons of interest, and 14 others who were identified by sources as terrorists. Three other men detained were taken for questioning on suspicion of terrorist activity

Iraqi Army and Coalition Forces, using tips from local citizens, targeted al-Qaida operatives outside Diyala’s provincial capital July 11, in a continued effort to deny any safe-haven to the terrorist group.

Who will come out of the closet first?

Democrats have seized on a new topic that they are sure will propel them into the
White House in January, 2009.
The Democrat Candidates for President of the United States of America will hold the first debate wherein the main and perhaps sole subject is LGBT issues. That's Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender(ed?).

Forget about the War on Terror. Who cares about Iraq? Iran with nukes? What Mexican border crisis? We have Gay Issues here.

Let’s imagine Hill (Butch) Rodham arriving in a pick-up truck, escorted by former Attorney General Janet Reno.
Or maybe Barrack Hussein Obama on the podium wearing a hajib.
Ok, John Edwards is too easy, just ask Ann Coulter.
Silly boys, the rest don't matter anyway.

From the report, which by the way, (or is it Bi the way?) comes from; http://www.365gay.com/Newscon07/07/071007debate.htm;

(Los Angeles, California) For the first time the leading candidates for the presidency will hold a televised debate devoted solely to LGBT issues.

The one-hour event will be held on August 9 and broadcast on gay network LOGO at 9:00 pm

The LGBT vote is considered a decisive electoral force and according to exit poll data make up approximately 4 percent of the voting population.

Way to go Democrats. Pander to 4%. Forget about the 85% of Christians in this country and spend your time on 4%.

There's a new Sheriff in town

What is needed in a new Millennium is a little more Pusserfication and a lot less pussification in the world. Who better to swing a two-by-four and bring a little law and order than Law and Orders' own Fred Thompson.
Can't you just imagine Amadinajab on the receiving end of good old southern white-pine lumber?
Whap! Ooh, that's so satisfying. Whap! Whap!

An Inconvenient Son

Today Al Gore II said of Al Gore III, that "We love him very much," Gore told NBC's "Today" show, adding, "We are going to leave it as a private matter."

A Private Matter? I'm sorry if you find it inconvenient that Jr was arrested driving down my freeway in excess of 100 MPH. That is not a private matter, it is a matter of public safety, compounded by the fact that Jr was under the influence of drugs and in possession of narcotics.

Will we see another California style Celebrity Catch and Release Show? Will another wealthy Prince of the Realm be treated better than the rest of us, because of who he is, or rather who his daddy is? Shades of Paris Hilton.

If it were me, or someone else without mega bucks, the prosecution would be screaming for prison time regarding the narcotics possession. I'm talking felony possession of Xanax, Valium, Vicodin and Adderall. They would insist on felony DUI charges due to the high rate of speed and the fact that Jr does this with unfortunate regularity. In this case I agree with my hypothetical prosecutor. Jr needs to be stopped before someone dies. The life we save may be his, or yours.

Birchers Have Gone Bananas

I used to wonder why the John Birch Society never made it out of the trailer parks. Now I know why. The dim bulb president of the Birchers, John F. Mcmanus, not to be confused with the terrific writer, Patric F. Mcmanus, writes in the JBS website that Dick Cheney is a Svengali/Darth Vader morph who convinced Presidents Bush 41 and 43 to attack and invade Iraq for undisclosed but supposedly discredited reasons.

Ok, Mr John F Mcmanus et al; the real reasons why we are in Iraq are the same reasons why we are in Afghanistan, and there are three of them.

1. To have a presence in the Middle East to stabilize the region and to defend Israel.
2. The United States was dis-invited from the Saudi Arabian kingdom by our supposed friends.
3. (To fully understand this one, I have included a map) The United States is now in control of 2485 km of Iranian border. 935 km in the east, along the Afghan/Iraq border and 14450 in the west along Iraq/Iran's' border. We have control of about 1,100,000 sq km in the region now. Not to mention the NATO ally Turkey's border in the north, or the 3 to 4 carrier groups in the Persian Gulf.

So you see the real reason we are in Iraq is as plain as the map on the table. It is not about Iraq...it is about IRAN. Nobody cares about Iraq. Those messed up people were in a mess of their own making. Whatever happens over there, their situation cannot be worse than what they had. A vicious dictator and constant war with Iran, Kuait and the UN.

The ACLU is AWOL

CARVER Elementary School in Oak Park, near San Diego, Ca.
has become involved in a controversy regarding school prayer.
It seems that the school is bucking the modern trend which
disallows prayer in school. Before you get to excited, you need
to know that it is not for everyone. The school apparently only
extends this courtesy to Muslims. Christians and Jews need
not apply.

From the article;

"...critics continue to assail Carver for providing a 15-minute
break in the classroom each afternoon to accommodate Muslim
students who wish to pray."

The best part;
"In a letter, the(Christian) religious-rights organization urged the district to broaden its accommodations to Christians and Jews by setting aside separate classrooms for daily prayer and to permit rabbis, priests and other religious figures to lead children in worship on campuses."

But of course;
"A lawyer representing the district said those ideas would violate the Constitution's prohibition against government establishment of religion."

Notably absent from the fracas is Americas Guarantors of Separation of Church and State, the vaunted and mighty American Civil Liberties Union. How loud would they be if it was Christians and not Muslims praying in the school. I suppose they think prayer beads are more dangerous than a suicide vest.
