Ringo the Gringo took a lot of great pictures from today’s anti-war demonstration in Los Angeles, which Charles Johnson assembled into a great slide show. Please stop by to see the usual collection of Troofers, Ron Paul Supporters, Israel haters, and Communists. See if you can tell any difference between the “libertarians” and the Communists.

The Pakistan army continues the assault on Fazlullah’s followers who are allied to Al Qaeda and the Lal Masjid clerics in North Waziristan. The Mullah is in hiding, and the article does not mention if he’s still broadcasting from his illegal FM radio stations. This comes after a suicide attack on the 2500 troops near Swat, [...]

Dutch Green party officials were upset by remarks from Representative Tom Lantos, D-California. Lantos is a holocaust survivor, and in a discussion of Guantanamo he stated that Europeans seem much more upset over Guantanamo than they were about Auschwitz.
The Greens were highly offended, but while over the top a bit, Lantos statement comes close to [...]

I need to get a shutter lanyard… real bad. I have to set the ISO too high to get these shots without blur. With a lanyard, the long exposure shot would be much better.
Since Valerie is on her nationwide victim-book tour, I thought it pertinent to repost Valerie’s theme song, first made popular in the movie “The Falcon and the Snowman.”

At end of earth
where sea meets sky
stands a lighthouse
at land’s end.
Above foam and roar
light streams forth
with warn of rocks below.
Past land and deeps
above wave’s roar
over stone’s rend
light sings sure
- Thanos
Above is a miniature lighthouse etched in a block of crystal by a laser that is in turn superimposed over a photo of a scenic shore in Oregon.
A suicide bomb blast in Swat has killed 18 Frontier Corps soldiers, an unknown number of civilians, and injured scores more. (Some stories report 30 total deaths, some 20.) This comes as 2,000 Pakistan army troops have taken the high ground on the hills surrounding Swat.

Earlier the PKK attacked Turkish troops in an ambush on a bridge killing at least 12, and tensions are rising both sides of the border. Turkey recently passed a bill allowing attacks across the border in Iraq, and there are reports that they are shelling in Iraq again.
This cannot continue — while PKK are terrorists [...]

I found this cartoon in Echourouk Online, and just had to carry it. It’s a great piece of work on several levels. It parodies Al Qaeda’s flag, shows the reward is raised, and implies that not only is Bin Laden fearful and running away, but aslo crippled — which goes back to the rumors from [...]

PPP Demonstrations occurred in most cities in the Punjab, but never escalated to the level of full shutterdowns. As the photo demonstrates, there were the usual tire-burning episodes in streets and intersections (do they know how toxic that smoke is?)
Full political rallies have been banned in the Punjab, which will put a damper on all [...]
