Tactical Error

Publicly announce where the enemy can kill us safely? That's a great battle plan.

The top U.S. general in Afghanistan will soon formally order U.S. and NATO forces to break away from fights with militants hiding in Afghan houses so the battles do not kill civilians, a U.S. official said Monday.

Taliban vs Iran

Who should get the nukes? The guys who want to rule the world, or the guys who want to burn it down and rule the ashes?

If the wrong people get nukes, expect them to be used in the civilized world within a week.

Guantanamo Detainee, Binyam Mohamed, Freed After 4 Years In Prison - wcco.com

LONDON (AP) ―
A former British resident who claims he was brutally tortured at a covert CIA site in Morocco has been freed from Guantanamo after nearly seven years in U.S. captivity -- an ordeal that could come back to haunt the U.S. and British governments.

Claims of torture are standard operating procedure for Islamist Terrorists. The real question is, how long before he returns to fighting against the free world?

Magical Thinking

Just because you say something, doesn't make it so. America is the enemy, by their choice. Showing weakness to an enemy with a history of violently exploiting weakness is a mistake.

Foreign policy is quickly turning into a horrible b-rate comedy.

The Law of Obvious Consequences

Gee, when we we let a known enemy go free, so he can go through a "rehabilitation program for former jihadists", who would guess he returns to the fight?

Mercy, that's what the Gitmo terrorist need.

The Head of the Snake

Don't read this anywhere you don't want people to see you with tears in your eyes.

"When you enter the museum you will walk through a long and winding hallway. The walls are covered with mirror shards. Each represents one of the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Kurds murdered in the genocidal Anfal campaign. A river of twinkling lights lines the ceiling. Each represents one of the five thousand villages destroyed by Saddam Hussein."
