With all the leaders in Hammas, Hezbollah, etc, that Israel has wacked over the last 5 months or so, what is one more? Hamas say one of the men killed was Adnan al-Ghoul, a senior figure in the organisation’s military wing. Adnan al-Ghoul had been on Israel’s wanted list for over 15 years and had […]

Captain Ed has a good article about the 7 terrorists caught in Spain recently. They were planning to blow up the Spanish High Court. So much for electing an anti-Iraq War government and pulling a cut-n-run from Iraq. This is why you give terrorists zip. Nada. Ziltch. Like a bad horror movie, they come back. […]

I am rather disppointed in the MSM. News of the Afghany elections occuring Saturday, Afghanistan time (8 1/2 hours ahead of East Coast Time), are buried in most sites. FoxNews, CNN, MSNBC, Yahoo News, and so on. None have any story on the front page. Fox does have a little blurb on their side scroll, […]

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana (AP) — A man on trial for taking a kindergartner hostage leaped up in court Wednesday and slashed his public defender with a razor blade. Barbette Williams, 48, of New Orleans was booked with attempted second-degree murder for injuring lawyer Bert Garraway. There’s a good idea, even if Garraway is a Public […]

This is good news if it comes true: Syrian President Bashar Assad is offering to make peace with Israel and says he is ready to cooperate with the United States in stabilizing Iraq, a former senior State Department official said Wednesday. In a three-hour meeting with the Syrian president last month in Damascus, Indyk said […]
