The First Thing

Well at least one of the first things Obama should do come January 21 is kill all the Blackwater contracts
Blackwater’s Iraq contract was extended in April, but the company is by no means betting the house on its long-term presence there. While the firm is quietly maintaining its Iraq work, it is aggressively pursuing other [...]

Oh What Happy Days

Via The Happy Tutor comes this article Karl Hoecker’s Album. A different view of Auschwitz, a private collection of photographs by the adjutant to the commandant of Auschwitz, from May, 1944 to January, 1945, that shows the utter moral, and emotional disconnect, between what happened there and those who made it happen.

Why doesn’t John McCain support the troops

3 April, 2008 (16:16) | Political, War | No comments

The past few days McCain has been rampaging through Pennsylvania trying to impress the public with the military heritage of himself (graduated at the very bottom of his class) his family. So the question that must really be asked is why doesn’t McCain support the troops that he is so eager to send into battle [...]

The cost of war

1 April, 2008 (18:14) | War | No comments

We add up the hundreds of billions of dollars, the bombs dropped the bullets fired and it’s all so sterile. The MSM deliberately avoids mentioning the number of Iraqi civilians killed, noting only the Iraqi troops and police killed. We don’t see the pictures of the shattered bodies of babies, children and women. We don’t [...]

Five lost and torturous years.

Five years of an innocent man’s life wasted in Gitmo all for a $3000 bounty paid to Pakistan forces. See what Bush has wrought.

At the age of 19, Murat Kurnaz vanished into America’s shadow prison system in the war on terror. He was from Germany, traveling in Pakistan, and was picked [...]

US Declares War on Egypt

27 March, 2008 (21:39) | Sociology, War | No comments

When you cultivate a state of perpetual fear it is not just the people who are programmed to fear that suffer. As we’ve seen in Iraq many innocents, more innocents than enemy, have perished for any number of reasons, ranging from sheer homicidal pleasure on the part of battle damaged soldiers to those killed because [...]

Massage the message

25 March, 2008 (06:57) | Political, War | No comments

And so it begins. You can bet that by the time the election gets into full swing this, in order to bolster McCain’s bid, will be morphed into Iran supplying al-Qaeda, even though Petraeus goes to great lengths not to mention al-Qaeda in the article.
The most senior US general in Iraq has said he has [...]
