Saudi Karma

There are several reports to be released in the next few weeks that give the Saudi government little credit in improving their anti-terrorist efforts. There has been increased criticism of the Saudis since 9/11 also, considering that 15 of the terrorists that day were Saudi and the Saudis apparent... Sign in to see full entry.

The Only Good Infidel...

There is a current effort afoot to underplay the role of Islam in terrorist activities, a politically correct movement to insure that our more peaceful Muslim brethren aren’t thrown in with their more fanatic religious associates. You know, guilt by association. And, Allah knows, we wouldn’t want... Sign in to see full entry.

The Awakened Islamic Giant

I have stated and will state again, echoing the words of Admiral Yamamoto after Pearl Harbor (in his estimation, a failed attack, and that just after the attack), we have awakened a sleeping giant. Almost one-third of the world’s population is Muslim. Our population here in the United States is... Sign in to see full entry.

Al-Qaida, The Hydra

Al-Qaida is not dying. In fact, the terrorist organization, like the fabled hydra (about half of Al-Qaida’s leaders have been captured or killed), keeps living and growing. It is estimated that Al-Qaida now has roughly 18,000 operatives throughout the world. That is a most troubling number. It... Sign in to see full entry.

The Associated Press released a story yesterday out of Beirut, Lebanon, about the current wave of protests welling up in the MidEast since those four holes appeared in the golden...

Holy War

It is an adage that is constantly thrown at us: If you do not learn from the past, you are doomed to repeat it. It is an axiom that we all should live by, for surely some of us will die by it. Take the current occupation of Iraq, for example. Go into a benighted country, eliminate its government,... Sign in to see full entry.

The Importance Of Nicholas Berg

President Bush announced today on his weekly radio broadcast that the killers of Nicholas Berg were to be hunted down. "Their barbarism cannot be appeased, and their hatred cannot be satisfied. There's only one way to deal with terror: We must confront the enemy and stay on the offensive until these... Sign in to see full entry.
