[Michael J. Totten] Michael J. Totten: Freedom Fighter Called “Terrorist” by INS: The Islamic Republic of Iran is a fascist theocracy that repeatedly shows a willingness to harm its people for the immediate political goals of its leadership. (I try very hard to distinguish between the Mullahs and the people of Iran, because there is a lot of daylight between them.) Iranians are not idiots, but the Mullahs just do not care about thousands of people dying on their doorsteps.

[Jihad Watch] AP: "Anti-Muslim Backlash Immediate" -- but offers not even one ...: I am not insensitive to the emotional attachment one might have to a religion, and if Doug Hooper is experiencing any buyer's remorse about adopting a rag-bag faith of plagiarized Biblical tales and Gnostic heresies woven together with Mohammad's revelations of convenience, he would be a better man if he directed his energies toward persuading his fellow Muslims that they must adapt their faith to a secular society rather than insisting we all live in his fantasy land of jihad by press release where Muslim attackers are victims, non-Muslim --or even insufficiently Muslim-- victims are aggressors, and the real purveyors of hate are not those who do these hateful things but those who speak openly about them.

[At War] John Burns on Ahmed Wali Karzai and the C.I.A. - At War Blog ...: links of Ahmed Wali Karzai, who has spent much of the past eight years on the agency’s payroll, according to the reporting of Dexter Filkins, Mark Mazzetti and James Risen, and that at a time when he has been insistently accused of using his position as the most powerful government official in southern Afghanistan to profit from narcotics trafficking (an allegation he and his brother, the president, have just as insistently denied). But as the responses on this blog in the past 48 hours have shown, the nature of the allies America has made in Afghanistan, the brothers Karzai principal among them, factors crucially into the question of how much deeper, if at all, the United States should become vested in the Afghan conflict.

[Queerty] Why London's Rally Against Gay Violence Is Truly Extraordinary ...: Tavdy79, do you think it's possible that England’s failure to integrate some muslim youth stems from English support for US genocidal invasions and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, supporting zionist attempts at ethnic cleaning against Palestinians and incursions into Pakistan. I can't imagine they're not related to that that and to the rise of racist islamophobia, a relatively new phenomena in England and the EU promoted by European fascists and zionists and the US.

[World Politics Review: Blog] WPR Blog | Commentary Week In Review: Kagan explained that "because the members of AQI are overwhelmingly Iraqis -- often thugs and misfits recruited or dragooned into the organization (along with some clerics and more educated leaders) -- it is argued that AQI is not really part of the global al Qaeda movement .it is said, the war in Iraq is not part of the global war on terror: The 'real' al Qaeda -- Osama bin Laden's band, off in its safe havens in the Pakistani tribal areas of Waziristan and Baluchistan -- is the group to fight."
