[News] Barack Obama's churlishness is unforgivable - Telegraph Blogs: I served and was supported by our very gracious allies when Operation Iraqi Freedom launched and we were moved to RAF Akrotiri. The British hosts were quickly outnumbered by Americans, yet they never lost their courtesy and were always gracious, despite our rather besheveled and casual approach to things.

[Dhimmi Watch] Anglican Bishops suggest apology for war - Jihad Watch: Remember them, because if the American government does come to its senses, does decide to withdraw in order to end the squandering of resources, in order to husband those resources, in order to exploit the natural fissures (fissures that began a thousand years before the United States was founded), such a howl will go up that "they must stay" and "they owe it to the Iraqis to prevent bloodshed" and -- oh, from every pulpit in every empty Anglican church, to every meeting of MoveOn.org, the message will be turned completely on its head, just as soon as it becomes clear what the Americans are up toto, and why, for the motto of such people is not "no war" and not "out of Iraq" but "do whatever harms the American and other Western governments the most" and prevent any harm coming, even self-inflicted harm, to Islam and to Muslims. For Islam is now the vehicle of choice to express one's hatred of the West, of America, of -- of whatever you feel like hating, as long as it isn't called Islam.

[At War] John Burns on Those Who Aid War Journalists - At War Blog ...: There are those who say that reporters are to be admired for their intrepid pursuit of stories like the fuel-tanker bombing in Kunduz, and that local staff members who accompany them are keenly aware of the risks, as we know Sultan was, and that military personnel, too, are aware of the risks they take on operations like the one that led to the deaths of Sultan and the British commando. That was a point made in the statement issued by Britain’s prime minister, Gordon Brown, who said of the commandos engaged in the raid -- which the BBC and The Times of London reported as having been approved personally by the prime minister —

[The British National Party] Moral Superiority? ”” Dehumanising Their Own People : The British ...: All that silly paraphanalia represents an elite ruling class who are totally out of touch with the likes of you and me. It echoes a time when the "British way of doing things", was to send poor people, driven to stealing food, to exile in Australia or quite often to the gallows.

[SOLO - Sense of Life Objectivists] Why did we Invade Iraq? | SOLO - Sense of Life Objectivists: inspectors and unilateral Iraqi action got rid of them."[1] Kay was replaced in his role by Charles Duelfer and spent the following days discussing his discoveries and opinions with the news media and the U.S. political establishment. He testified on January 28, 2004 that “[i]t turns out that we were all wrong” and “I believe that the effort that has been directed to this point has been sufficiently intense that it is highly unlikely that there were large stockpiles of deployed, militarized chemical weapons there.

[The Next Hurrah] The Next Hurrah: They've Been Lying since 1991: How do you explain, for example, that by giving estimates of what Iraq might be hiding (things like VX nerve gas and anthrax weaponization--all the things which appeared in Colin Powell's presentation to the UN), Ritter accidentally gave the CIA the basis for claims that Iraq did have an active CW/BW program?

[Whatanews4u.Sports] BBC - Mark Mardell's America: 'Both the icing on the cake and the ...: Gordon Brown should consider going on Letterman and doing a Top 10 Reasons Why the UK deserves a 'special' relationship with the US. It's very dignified, as my Prime Minister, John Key, showed the other day with his Top 10 Reasons to visit New Zealand (he offered to pick American tourists up at the airport himself - his contact details are on the web for anyone interested).

[New Threads for Politics and Current Events] WASNT THE VIETNAM WAR...A WAR AGAINST COMMUNISM?: William Colby, former head of the CIA, once called Vang "the biggest hero of the Vietnam War." The charges in the new indictment are much the same as those in the first indictment. ...

[The Washington Note] Realists Warn on Iraq Afghanistan War - The Washington Note: I stopped supporting Afghanistan later in the game, as it was transformed into something that, as I see it, had less and less to do with Al Qaeda. I elevated my criticism of the Afghanistan war last fall, after Obama was elected, because I saw his election was likely to bring a dangerous escalation of the war, and also bring some liberal interventionists to power - people like Richard Holbrooke, Susan Rice and Hilary Clinton who have tended to support the use of ambitious military operations to spread democratic liberalism and give a makeover to various parts of the world.

[Jihad Watch] Jihadists draw up hit list of leading British Jews - Jihad Watch: They even know that they can emigrate to the UK and wage Jihad and if they get caught they will face imprisonment and upon release be granted British Citizenship. They know they will never be deported back to their own homeland, where they say they'll be persecuted, tortured and executed.

[Rootless Cosmopolitan - By Tony Karon] Rootless Cosmopolitan - By Tony Karon » Blog Archive » Bruce ...: Still, his first public political step was a curious one: the 1979 No Nukes concert, a worthy event that inadvertently exposed the telling contrast between, say, the daft fluffiness of David Nash fretting that his son might eat a nuked fish before playing the silly Our House, and the raw power of Springsteen singing The River (a heart-breaker, even if it includes the iffy rhyme, ”˜I got a job working construction/For the Johnstown company/But lately there ain’t that much work/On account of the economy’).

[At War] Colleagues Remember Sultan Munadi - At War Blog - NYTimes.com: I was reading the BBC Persian webpage (as I usually do being away from Afghanistan my home) this morning and came to the story of ‘Afghan journalist killed’. It was only mid way through the story and when I saw the photo posted which showed Sultan from one side, that I realized the dead journalist was Sultan, the friend and classmate I had lost track of for many years.

[Pajamas Media] Pajamas Media » Obama and ACORN: A Love Story: In his pre-law school years as a community organizer in Chicago, Obama was brought into ACORN’s orbit by the group’s city leader Madeleine Talbot, who recruited him into training her own staff. Though some years after Obama’s early organizing work, it was Talbot who masterminded a display of what radicals term “direct action”: she and her fellow activists stormed a session of the Chicago City Council, preventing participants from entering the session.

[WE Blog] Open thread 9/20 | WE Blog | Wichita Eagle Blogs: In the case of the U.S. and the UK, the first and second biggest suppliers of cannon fodder, it is by arguing that this is a war to save American and British lives (”the war on terror”) and that Western lives are worth everything and those of oppressed peoples nothing.

[The Liberty Papers] The Liberty Papers »Blog Archive » Ron Paul And Islamofascism: I don’t give a shit about Ron Paul’s position on abortion (that’s what he was discussing at the 3:00 mark in your link). He has a position on abortion that’s consistent with libertarianism, I respectfully disagree with him about where life begins and how feasible it is to enforce abortion laws (even at the state level), but his method of changing it is the same one I support (let the states decide), so I don’t care and it’s got nothing to do with this thread, which is about Ron Paul’s foreign policy.

[The Opinionator] Front-Page Blues - The Opinionator Blog - NYTimes.com: Newspapers died sometime between the days of Watergate (when the reporting of the Washington Post brought down a dishonest president) and when their reporting that the war in Iraq was started on contrived pretenses failed to do the same. Somewhere along the way, we stopped paying attention…..or caring.

[The Caucus] Sunday's Breakfast Menu - The Caucus Blog - NYTimes.com: Watching “Meet the Press” this morning, Orin Hatch in his description of the dismissal of the prosecutors and statements made by people, or lack of statements as a “Tempest in a COFFEE CUP”. The correct phrase is “Tempest in a TEAPOT”, Mr.
