Environmentalists Lied – People Died!

To help you achieve that please go to your kitchen cabinet now, get out he Reynold’s wrap and construct a tin-foil hat. This is a necessary implement to block out intrusive things such as critical thinking, reality, and reason; alternately if you are lazy and don’t want to construct a hat you can just take a lot of drugs instead like many in the left do when faced with reality.

That San Francisco Thing

If you want a rundown on that San Francisco thing, the best facts are here, and pics are at Gateway Pundit.
I am going to refrain from commenting on motive simply because I got burned jumping to conclusions here. This one seems exceedingly clear to me however, follow the links and judge for yourselves.
That’s one of [...]

WW III Update: Terrorist Roundup continues

Intelligence agencies worldwide have either uncovered a new treasure-trove of intel, or there is a rift among terror groups and opposing groups are giving each other up to the authorities. Along with that there have been major political shifts as well.

Media Callousness, a Tale of Horror from India

This is a tale of a burning man, told with clarity on Suhasini Haid-Ar’s blog at IBN in India. It demonstrates the extreme distance some journalists put themselves from conscience and morals. Please do not follow this link nor read the sad tale if you are faint of heart. I for one will not sleep easy tonight.

Non-Nuclear ICBM’s Update III

Wiki news and others are reporting on Donald Rumsfeld’s recent urging of using ICBM’s with conventional war-heads. You’ve been reading it here since April, but essentially this sets up the capability to strike Iran’s nuclear enrichment factories fully, it gives us the capability to hit UBL next time he’s sighted in Darkot or Waziristan.

For a Chuckle

Please stop by Planck’s Constant for a hilarious remake of a classic comedy skit –
Hu’s on First.

Iranian Repression and Torture Continues

In earlier articles here you’ve seen a steady campaign of tightening repression in Iran. They have imprisoned some dissidents, hung others, shelled Kurd and Balochi villages, tightened internet filtering, and taken down satellite dishes across the country.
Gateway Pundit has been doing a fantastic job of covering this, please stop by and see the latest on [...]

The Death of an Evil Man

Use of terror, coercion, and murder of innocents always defeats a cause, no matter how worthy, and in the history books centuries from now these men will all be in the evil column together, and the causes and beliefs they fight for will be the forgotten dust blown off the pages. At the bottom of this all we really have a strong man trying to control the gas and oil wealth of a region.

Iran Tests Sub to Surface Missile From Persian Gulf

These are the two variants that meet the description provided the media by Iran, and the two that are capable of being launched from a submarine. Of the two, the second appears most dangerous, I am still suspicious that they would test with a target only a mile away.

FOX Reporters Freed Forced to Convert To Islam

The Religion of Peace wins false converts with guns. Strong faiths do not need guns to win real converts. If this continues over time muslims will not have to worry about a potentential backlash, there will be a real backlash.

Binary Liquid Explosives Do Work

In the UK Register we have a very authoritative appearing article spouting all the myths about binary liquid explosives. Authoritative sounding when it’s not sneering and joking about mass murder that is.

Gene Simmons Thinks The IDF Rocks

Gene Simmons has sent a video thank you to a soldier of the IDF thanking him for his service in the war against Hizb’Allah. Gene has long been a libertarian leaning conservative so this does not surprise me in the least, although it will surprise some. Gene’s mother was a holocaust survivor, and he was born in Haifa.

Missile Defense Updates

Missile defense is going to be an ongoing part of our lives in the future, like it or not. Israel’s recent encounter with Hizb’Allah demonstrates the need for a layered defense, and left over from the previous battles with the same opponent is an old program that is now seeing the light of day

Television News Boycott

I’m on a television news boycott for awhile, maybe a couple weeks. Do you suppose they will stop leading with the child murderer, and the child murdered by then? I don’t want to be callous here, but it’s not news, it’s pure sensationalism. Yeah, I hope if he’s the killer he fries, but there’s too much else going on for journalists to waste so much bandwidth on one murder case so old.

Bin Laden Update

UPDATE: This from CNN, Bin Laden near Chitral, down the pass from Darkot and across alpine meadow? 
 According to a U.S. military intelligence official familiar with the hunt, bin Laden is likely hiding in an area called Chitral, in the far north of Pakistan, bounded by Afghanistan to the west and China to the north.
Contrary to popular [...]

CNN’s Glowing Tribute to Mass Murder

Christiane “Jihad Can’t be Beat” Amanpour and Peter Bergen’s glowing fawning portrayal of a mass murderer is symptiomatic of what’s wrong with modern Journalism. When even the New York Times characterizes your special as an “Al Qaeda Recruitment Video” you should wake up and realize you’ve done something terribly wrong.

Pakistan and Afghanistan to Cooperate on Border Patrolling

Afgha.com is reporting on the new cooperative agreement to partner in patrolling the Pakistani/Afghani border areas, which will apply even more pressure to the Taliban, and Al Qaeda forces there. This along with the earlier summer move of opening the war chest and bringing many of the tribal warlords back aboard presages good to come. [...]

Bin Laden Sightings, Upgraded to Potentially Real Again

Earlier I posted and retracted this report regarding Bin Laden, I am both updating and upgrading the report now that I remembered this earlier ADN Kronos Article that I joked about back in July, the timing is a week to a week and a half apart from the sighting reported by Hindustani Times near Darkot, Pakistan

German Train Bomber Arrested in Lebanon

The man Germans police agencies are seeking in the failed train bombings in Germany was arrested in Lebanon today

School Shooting

Is this another YMM incident? It’s unknown at this time, as Police have not yet released the name of the “shooter”. Right now they are billing it as a domestic dispute. They do have someone in custody after an elementary school in Essex, Vermont was attacked by a 20 year-old male shooter.
