And that claim has all the legitimacy of the Gambino family calling the FBI and Department of Justice "organized crime families".

Iran's parliament voted Saturday to designate the CIA and the U.S. Army as "terrorist organizations," a largely symbolic response to a U.S. Senate resolution seeking a similar designation for Iran's Revolutionary Guards.

The parliament said the Army and the CIA were terrorists because of the atomic bombing of Japan; the use of depleted uranium munitions in the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq; support of the killings of Palestinians by Israel; the bombing and killing Iraqi civilians and the torture of imprisoned terror suspects.

"The aggressor U.S. Army and the Central Intelligence Agency are terrorists and also nurture terror," said a statement by the 215 lawmakers who signed the resolution at an open session of the 290-member Iranian parliament. The session was broadcast live on state-run radio.

The resolution, which urges Ahmadinejad's government to treat the two as terrorist organizations, would become law if ratified by the country's hardline constitutional watchdog but probably would have little effect as the two nations have no diplomatic relations.

If, however, Mahmoud the Mad does give approval to this silly resolution, I hope that all Americans will see fit to wabge a "terrorist" war against the Iranian regime -- one conducted without roadside bombs, suicide vests, beheadings of hostages and planes flown into buildings.

Mahmoud the Mad needs to be taught that war is Hell -- and it is high time that he receives a one-way ticket there, courtesy of Uncle Sam.

Dead terrorists are always a happy note on which to start the day.

A U.S. airstrike killed one of the most senior al-Qaida leaders in Iraq, a Tunisian linked to the kidnapping and killings last summer of American soldiers, a top commander said Friday.

Brig. Gen. Joseph Anderson said the death of the suspected terrorist in a U.S. airstrike Tuesday south of Baghdad, and recent similar operations against al-Qaida, have left the organization in Iraq fractured.

Abu Osama al-Tunisi was killed along with two other terrorist suspects in a U.S. F-16 strike that dropped two 500-pound laser-guided bombs on a safehouse where they were meeting, said the U.S. Central Command Air Forces.

"Al-Tunisi was one of the most senior leaders ... the emir of foreign terrorists in Iraq and part of the inner leadership circle," Anderson told a Pentagon news conference.

Al-Tunisi was a leader in helping bring foreign terrorists into the country, said Anderson, chief of staff to the No. 2 U.S. commander in Iraq, Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno.

Speaking by videoconference from Baghdad, Anderson said that al-Tunisi operated in Youssifiyah, southwest of Baghdad, November '04 and became the overall emir of Youssifiyah in the summer of '06.

His group was responsible for kidnapping American soldiers in June 2006, Anderson said.

And by now he knows that there were no virgins waiting for him -- and that the sands of Iraq are much cooler than his new eternal dwelling place.

As so many enemies of America have found since the birth of our country, the United States military will keep after you until they find you. Your two options are surrender or death -- and in the case of the jihadis, I personally like the second option.

And by now he knows that there were no virgins waiting for him -- and that the sands of Iraq are much cooler than his new eternal dwelling place.

How is it that someone with such a record was ever appointed to a government office in the first place?

Oh, that's right -- the governor who appointed him is a Democrat, and they have been siding with the enemy for some time.

But at least the supporter of jihadi terror is no longer holding an official position in government.

A controversial leader of a U.S. Muslim group resigned from a Virginia state board hours after Gov. Tim Kaine learned during a radio call-in show about incendiary comments the appointee made about Israel, Islam and U.S. foreign policy.

Dr. Esam Omeish, who is a top surgeon at a Washington, D.C., area hospital, also is seen in videos found on YouTube.com that show him advocating "the jihad way," decrying the Israeli invasion last year of Lebanon, and calling for President Bush's impeachment.

In a statement Thursday afternoon, Kaine said he had accepted Omeish's resignation from the state Commission on Immigration, which only met for the first time on Tuesday.

"Dr. Omeish is a respected physician and community leader, yet I have been made aware of certain statements he has made which concern me," Kaine said. "Dr. Omeish indicated that he did not want this controversy to distract from the important work of the Commission."

In a separate, undated video, Omeish tells a crowd of Washington-area Muslims, "... you have learned the way, that you have known that the jihad way is the way to liberate your land." The video was credited to Investigative Project, a Washington-based organization that investigates radical Islamic organizations.

Again and again we find "mainstream" Muslim leaders in this country engaging in the rhetoric of jihad. I applaud those who are engaged in an informational crusade to expose this ugly underbelly of the so-called "Religion of Peace."

Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

Children at a downtown preschool got an unplanned lesson in animal rights activism when their pet rabbit was stolen and anti-circus fliers were left in the animal's cage.

Sugar Bunny vanished from the Community Building Children's Center during a celebration of building renovations Saturday evening, teachers said.

"Somebody stoled him," 5-year-old Zion told The Spokesman-Review, which gave only the first names of him and other children in a report on the heist. "I'm sad."

Lori Peters, a teacher, said watching, petting and playing with Sugar Bunny helped the little children overcome separation anxiety. The theft is being reported to police but it's unclear whether the preschool will find a new pet, she added.

The fliers that were left were for protests against the Ringling Brothers Circus, which was in town Friday through Sunday, and showed a picture of a bear trying to escape beneath the bars of a cage. Listed at the bottom were People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and the Northwest Animal Rights Network.

Save a child. Save a pet. Shoot an animal rights terrorist.

Coalition forces have killed 165 jihadis.

Two battles killed more than 165 Taliban fighters and a U.S.-led coalition soldier in southern Afghanistan on Wednesday as President Hamid Karzai prepared to discuss the escalating violence with President Bush in New York.
One of the clashes began Tuesday when several dozen insurgents attacked a joint coalition-Afghan patrol with machine guns, mortars and rocket-propelled grenades near the Taliban-controlled town of Musa Qala in Helmand province, with Taliban reinforcements flowing in all day, a coalition statement said.
The coalition said it returned artillery fire and called in fighter aircraft, killing more than 100 of the Taliban fighters. One coalition soldier was killed and four wounded.
The coalition said there were no immediate reports of civilian deaths or injuries.
Taliban militants overran Musa Qala in February, four months after British troops left the town following a contentious peace agreement that handed over security responsibilities to Afghan elders. Musa Qala has been in control of Taliban fighters ever since.
Situated in northern Helmand province, Musa Qala and the region around it have seen the heaviest fighting in Afghanistan this year. It is also in the middle of the country's poppy-growing belt.
In neighboring Uruzgan province, more than 80 Taliban fighters attacked a joint Afghan and coalition patrol from bunkers near the village of Kakrak in a six-hour battle Tuesday night, the coalition said.
Coalition artillery and air support bombarded Taliban positions, killing more than 65 insurgents, it said.
Three civilians were wounded in the crossfire, it said. No Afghan or coalition forces were hurt.
The battle took place near an area where more than three dozen insurgents were killed as they prepared an ambush six days ago, the coalition said.

HereÂ’s hoping that they enjoy eternity in Hell.

Yes, Rudy Giuliani didn't see terrorism as a threat before 9/11. Neither did most of America, Republican and Democrat, with the Clinton Administration being key among those who missed the threat level after the 1993 truck bomb in the World Trade Center.

Today, Rudy Giuliani has learned from that mistake following the horror of 9/11 -- but the Washington Post seems intent upon minimizing the reason for the change in his evaluation of the terrorist threat.

As Rudolph W. Giuliani campaigns for president, he rarely misses a chance to warn about the threat from terrorists. "They hate you," he told a woman at an Atlanta college. They "want to kill us," he told guests at a Virginia luncheon.

The former New York City mayor exhorts America to fight back in what he calls the "terrorists' war on us" and accuses Democrats of reverting to their "denial" in the 1990s, when, he said, President Bill Clinton erred by treating terrorism as a law enforcement matter, not a war.

Democrats, he said in July, have "the same bad judgment they had in the 1990s. They don't see the threat. They don't accept the threat."

It is a powerful message coming from the man who won global acclaim for his calm and resolve after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. But it is undercut by Giuliani's record as mayor and by his public statements about terrorism since the 1990s, which document an evolution in thinking that began with a mind-set similar to the one he criticizes today.

And therein lies the difference -- in the 1990s, Rudy followed the prevailing wisdom that terrorism needed to be treated as a crime problem and handled by the courts. Today, he recognizes it as a national security problem that needs to be handled by other means. Democrats still want to handle the problem with cops and judges.

What it comes down to is this -- in a post-9/11 world, do we continue to follow 9/10 strategies. Rudy, who lived the devastation of 9/11, understands that we cannot. Rather than being criticized for holding a different view on handling the terrorist threat today than he did a decade ago, Giuliani needs to be applauded for moving forward rather than sticking with the failed policies of the past.

And I do condemn it.

Police and the FBI are investigating after someone shot through the door of a mosque during Ramadan, a monthlong religious celebration involving dawn-to-dusk fasting, prayer and charity.

The bullet pierced the top aluminum frame of a glass entry door at The Islamic Center of South Texas on Friday afternoon.

Witnesses said they heard two gunshots, but investigators have found evidence of only one shot hitting the mosque, Corpus Christi police Cmdr. Jesse Garcia said.

"We're sure it's a high-caliber weapon, based on the damage," Garcia said.

Pieces of the bullet have been recovered for testing, but police have yet to name any suspects and haven't determined whether the incident is a hate crime.

Osama Bahloul, the spiritual leader of the mosque, is among about 600 members of the center who are celebrating Ramadan.

"We hope this is the end of it," he said. "But we are genuinely concerned about our people. We have a large number of children here this month, and if he or she did this again someone could be killed."

Bahloul said the center will install video cameras and members have been reminded to be aware of their surroundings.

Police have searched flower beds at an apartment complex across the street from the mosque and FBI agents went door to door to interview possible witnesses.

The FBI is adding $5,000 to the Crime Stoppers reward to bring it to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest in the case, FBI spokeswoman Patricia Villafranca said.

Most Muslims are decent people, and are entitled to freely exercise their human right to worship. Such acts of violence are not merely immoral, but are also an assault on our Constitutional values. I urge others to speak out against this incident as well.

Does this contradict my condemnation of those who wage jihad against the United States and other non-Muslim peoples? Hardly, but I am certain that emulating their crimes against the innocent is precisely the wrong way to stop them.

Seems that the flow of supporters from Syria has slowed to a trickle. maybe it has to do with the fact that we are winning, no matter what the Demcorats say.

The number of foreign fighters entering Iraq from Syria has decreased noticeably in recent months, corresponding to a similar decrease in suicide bombings and other attacks by the group al-Qaeda in Iraq, according to U.S. military and intelligence officials.

"There is an early indication of a trend," said Gen. David H. Petraeus, the U.S. commander in Iraq, in an interview. Border crossings from Syria that averaged 80 to 90 a month have fallen to "half or two-thirds of that over the last two or three months," Petraeus said.

Not only that, but the Syrians are blocking them from coming back into the country.

Makes you wonder what they know that the Democrats don't.

I mean, that's what the Democrats are saying. How could these Iraqi Shiite leaders possibly want to work with the US?

American commanders in southern Iraq say Shiite sheiks are showing interest in joining forces with the U.S. military against extremists, in much the same way that Sunni clansmen in the western part of the country have worked with American forces against al-Qaida.

Sheik Majid Tahir al-Magsousi, the leader of the Migasees tribe here in Wasit province, acknowledged tribal leaders have discussed creating a brigade of young men trained by the Americans to bolster local security as well as help patrol the border with Iran.

He also said last week's assassination of Abdul-Sattar Abu Risha, who spearheaded the Sunni uprising against al-Qaida in Anbar province, only made the Shiite tribal leaders more resolute.

"The death of Sheik Abu Risha will not thwart us," he said. "What matters to us is Iraq and its safety."

The movement by Shiite clan leaders offers the potential to give U.S. and Iraqi forces another tactical advantage in curbing lawlessness in Shiite areas. It also would give the Americans another resource as they beef up their presence on the border with Iran, which the military accuses of arming and training Shiite extremists.

Could it possibly be that these Iraqi leaders know better than the Democrats and the MoveOn.org puppet-masters what is going on in Iraq -- and that they like the odds of a US/Iraqi victory over the jihadi terrorists?

There's this story from Foxnews.

A 26-year-old man accused of carrying an assault rifle in a Michigan park remained in custody Friday on a $1 million cash bond.

Houssein Zorkot, of Dearborn, Mich., was arrested on Sept. 8 after witnesses called police to complain about a man with an AK-47, dark clothes and blackened face walking around a park.

"We don't know exactly what his intent was or what he was intending on doing," Dearborn Police Chief Michael Celeski told FOXNews.com.

Police responded to the scene and approached the vehicle Zorkot was driving. Zorkot attempted to flee and was not cooperative with police, Celeski said.

"At one point, he was reaching to a lower area of the vehicle and the other officer at the scene was able to determine there was a weapon on the floorboard," Celeski said.

Officers then took Zorkot into custody and charged him with one count of carrying a dangerous weapon with unlawful intent, one count of possession of a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle and one count of felony firearm. If convicted on all three counts, Zorkot faces 9 years in jail.

Zorkot was arraigned on Tuesday. A preliminary examination is scheduled for Sept. 21.

But what is left out is this "minor" detail about the suspect.

The day he was arrested, he uploaded this little number on his website.

And hours later was arrested in a park carrying an assault rifle.

Not to mention all the pro-terrorist material on his blog.

Or this claim on the website.

Police say he has a website where he claims to be a member of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.

Here's hoping that this terrorist goes down hard. And that our media begins reporting ALL the information about this story.

Let's mark the entire month this way, with the elimination of more jihadis.

More than 57 Taliban fighters were killed late overnight and during Wednesday in southern Afghanistan on the eve of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, officials said.

No coalition or Afghan forces were injured in the clashes. But three Afghan soldiers and an engineer were killed Wednesday in two separate roadside bomb attacks in south-eastern Afghan province of Paktia, officials reported.

Forty-five of the Taliban fighters were killed Wednesday after they fired anti-tank weapons at coalition and Afghan soldiers patrolling in Uruzgan province. The ground troops returned fire with air support as backup, officials said.

About a dozen Taliban fighters were killed in US-led coalition air strikes in Arghandab district of southern Zabul province overnight, officials said on Wednesday.

The Taliban have announced an offensive - called 'Nasrat', or 'success' - for the month of Ramadan, which begins Thursday. The announcement came just a short time after it had indicated it wanted to open talks with the government.

And since the jihadis have seen fit to declare a Ramadan offensive, it seems only appropriate that Coalition forces respond -- send every single terrorist possible to Hell during the Muslim holy month.

After all, in the latest video Osama clearly takes credit (again) for 9/11, and he has the evidence to prove it.

And he is calling for more homicidal activity by his fellow Muslims.

''It remains for us to do our part. So I tell every young man among the youth of Islam: It is your duty to join the caravan (of martyrs) until the sufficiency is complete and the march to aid the High and Omnipotent continues,'' Bin Laden said.

A note to those who claim Islam is, by its very nature, a religion of peace.

In Christianity, martyrs are those who accept death at the hands of others for the sake of the faith. They don't court martyrdom.

In Islam, martyrs are those who die while actively seeking to take the lives of others, including innocents.

I know that is an inconvenient truth, but I think it clearly demonstrates a difference between the two faiths. And it certainly explains why I will meekly accept martyrdom as defined by my Christian faith rather than embrace a religion that calls on its embrace the latter in all its bloody "glory".

This is why such wiretapping programs are necessary.

The governmentÂ’s ability to eavesdrop on terrorism suspects overseas allowed the United States to obtain information that helped lead to the arrests last week of three Islamic militants accused of planning bomb attacks in Germany, Mike McConnell, the director of national intelligence, told senators on Monday.

But another government official said Mr. McConnell might have misspoken. Mr. McConnell said the information had been obtained under a newly updated and highly contentious wiretapping law, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. But the official, who has been briefed on the eavesdropping laws and the information given to the Germans, said that those intercepts were recovered last year under the old law. The official asked for anonymity because the information is classified.

The previous law required officials to seek warrants to monitor at least some phone calls and e-mail messages between foreign locations when they were collected from fiber-optic cable in the United States; the new law waived that requirement.

In my book, it doesn't matter which version of the FISA law was used to get the intelligence that stopped attacks on Americans abroad. They key thing is that these jihadis were prevented from carrying out their own 9/11 commemoration by spilling American blood.

Ultimately, we must decide as a nation whether we are going to treat the jihadi terrorists as criminals to be prosecuted or a military enemy to be rooted out and destroyed. I vote for the latter, and believe that we need to use all necessary means to defeat them, just as we did with the Nazis in WWII. The only question is, are we serious about stopping this enemy -- and what it will take to make us serious if we aren't.

Murderous jihadi pig Osama bin Laden has released his latest address to the American people, telling us that we will lose to the vile forces of jihad and must become either dhimmis or Muslims.

A new video of Osama bin Laden makes no overt threats against the United States but boasts about the devastating impact the 2001 terror attacks had on the nation — both domestically and overseas.

* * *

In a rambling 30-minute speech addressed to Americans, bin Laden references the attacks on New York and Washington several times, almost gloating about policy changes by the U.S. government in response.

"Nineteen young men were able — by the grace of Allah, the Most High — to change the direction of its compass," bin Laden says of the nation in a transcript of the video obtained by The Associated Press.

"Since the 11th, many of America's policies have come under the influence of the Mujahedeen," bin Laden says. "And as a result, the people discovered the truth about it; its reputation worsened, its prestige was broken globally and it was bled dry economically."

"Mujahedeen" is a term for Muslims fighting in a war or involved in any other struggle.

His call for America to get out of Iraq echoes the the talking points of every Democrat running for President -- but especially Kucinich, Gravel, and Richardson. Indeed, his position sounds even more like those taken by Cindy Sheehan, MoveOn.org and other anti-war radicals.

"Why have the Democrats failed to stop this war, despite them being the majority?" he asks, according to the translation provided by the SITE group. Later, answering his own question, he argues that the failure of Americans to stop the Iraq war was attributable to the political dominance of large corporations that "benefit from this continuation."

Remember that, America, when you go to the polls -- Osama bin Laden himself sees a vote for the Democrats as a vote for the ultimate victory of the jihad.

Bin Laden also plugs the works of Noam Chomsky in his video.

America has a choice. We can admit defeat and follow the prescription of Osama bin laden for ending the war in Iraq and the entire Crusade Against Jihadism. Alternatively, we can remain committed to victory in Iraq and the eventual eradication of the jihadis and their foul ideology. it is a question of whether America survives free or submits to the yoke of Islamism. As for me, I choose freedom.

Here is the full video, courtesy of the boys over at Jawa Report.

Death to the jihadis!

UPDATE: Don Surber notes that a great many of the statements made by Osama in this video could have been taken straight from the Cloaca Maxima of the internet.

Actual quotes from Osama bin LadenÂ’s new tape via ABC News:

“You made one of your greatest mistakes, in that you neither brought to account nor punished those who waged this war, not even the most violent of its murderers, Rumsfeld… “

And this:

“You permitted Bush to complete his first term, and stranger still, chose him for a second term, which gave him a clear mandate from you — with your full knowledge and consent — to continue to murder our people in Iraq and Afghanistan. Then you claim to be innocent! The innocence of yours is like my innocence of the blood of your sons on the 11th — were I to claim such a thing.”

And this:

“People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven’t made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there.”

There's also great photoshop fun at Doug Ross and an image of Osama without the fake beard at Exurban League.

UPDATE II: Gateway Pundit links to John Gibson's comparison of Osama's words with the words of Keith Olbermann.

Fifth columnist? Giving aid and comfort to the enemy? Why is he still on the air?

Also, at the Daily Gut they suggest that since Osama does not call for America's destruction in this video, just a departure from the Middle East, it is a sign that we have the jihadis on the run. After all, he's had to scale back his goal.

No, not the fact that they are permitted to hold the parade (a right I fully support) – but the fact that after holding the New York’s United American Muslim Day Parade on the last Sunday of September for many years, this year (for the second year in a row) it will take place on the on the Sunday closest to the anniversary of the murder of thousands by jihadi Muslims in New York City and elsewhere.

Consider the date of this year's United American Muslim Day Parade in New York City: this coming Sunday, September 9, only two days before the sixth anniversary of the radical Islamists' attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon in which more than 3,000 people died.

For 20 years, thousands of Muslims gathered in New York City on the last Sunday of September for their annual parade. It came off without incident. Then, last year, with Siraj Wahhaj, a fiery Brooklyn imam as grand marshal, the parade moved its date forward to come within a whisker of 9/11. The "Mainstream" media have been asleep about this, not asking the pregnant question: Why time the parade to nearly coincide with an infamous event perpetrated by radicals purporting to be martyrs for Islam?

Why the change? Why put an event honoring Islam on a date that is so close to the anniversary of the attack on America? It is no more appropriate than holding an event in honor of Japan on or about December 7.

This is just wrong.

And CAIR, of course, is offended. By the objections of those who are troubled by the parade date.

1 9/11 was an attack on America.

The people holding the parade are Americans. They were attacked on 9/11, too.

Are you running out of things to be offended by?

Posted by: John at Fri Sep 7 15:19:38 2007 (OTFxD)

2 Yeah, and most of the members of the German-American Bund were Americans, too. Never mind that it was a Nazi front, you probably would have supported a parade by them on D-Day.

I know -- let's see if we can get the KKK to hold a parade in Memphis on MLK Day. What could possibly be offensive about that?

As I make very clear about the parade in this post, my objection is not to the event itself -- it is to moving a parade celebrating Islam to coincide with an attack on America in the name of Islam.

They just hire terrorists and terrorist sympathizers to work for them!

A high-ranking official in Gov. Blagojevich's office spent nearly two years in a federal prison for refusing to aid a government terrorism probe into a series of bombings in Chicago and New York City.

Steven Guerra, Blagojevich's $120,000-a-year deputy chief of staff for community services, was identified by federal prosecutors as a member of the Puerto Rican separatist group, FALN, which was behind a wave of violence and killings in the 1970s and early 1980s.

In 1983, Guerra, now 53, was among five people convicted in New York of contempt of court for refusing to testify before a federal grand jury investigating the group. The felony conviction resulted in a three-year prison sentence for Guerra, who was released in 1986 after serving 23 months.

Federal prosecutors labeled Guerra and his four co-defendants "a danger to the community," and said they advocated armed violence, kidnappings, hijackings and prison breaks in the name of a "free" Puerto Rico.

The Illinois Democrat knew of Guerra’s terrorist connections and his conviction for refusing to testify about terrorism when subpoenaed by a grand jury at the time of his hiring – and still stands by the terrorist-abetting felon.

At a minimum, Guerra has got to go. Preferrably, Blagojevich should be impeached.

And if I sound angry and unreasonable, I have reason – one of those Chicago area bombings occurred less than two miles from my home. It occurred outside a building where my best friend’s father worked, and where I had been only a few hours before. Indeed, Michael and I had been standing within a couple of feet of the spot of the detonation, waiting for his father to drive us somewhere. While the only damages were broken windows and a destroyed Camaro, I realize how lucky I was that evening.

Screw the FALN. Screw Steven Guerra. Screw Governor Blagojevic.

Oh, yeah – and screw Bill Clinton, who pardoned the terrorist bombers.

It appears that jihadi pig Osama bin Laden is planning to address the American people on the sixth anniversary of his organization's cowardly murder of thousands of innocents.

Osama bin Laden will release a video ahead of the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks in what would provide the first new images of the terror mastermind in nearly three years, al-QaidaÂ’s media arm announced Thursday.

Analysts noted that al-Qaida tends to mark the Sept. 11 anniversary with a slew of messages, and the Department of Homeland Security said it had no credible information warning of an imminent threat to the United States.

Still, bin LadenÂ’s appearance would be significant. The al-Qaida leader has not appeared in new video footage since October 2004, and he has not put out a new audiotape in more than a year, his longest period without a message.

The cowardly bin Laden, who isn't even a good enough Muslim to embrace his destiny and receive 72 virgins by blowing up his own goat-copulating jihadi ass, will no doubt continue to gloat over the acts of murder his followers committed and demand that Americans begin following the teachings of the (false) prophet Muhammad and the blood-thirsty deity his teachings proclaims.

And, more to the point, who we must watch.

There are lessons to be drawn from the German terrorism arrests yesterday.

Some obvious points: these men are educated, two of three are German nationals, all seem to have been trained not in Iraq, Iran or Afghanistan, but in Pakistan, a putative ally. It is hard to see how the Iraq war - whether a failure or a success - would have any impact on this tiny cell's attempt at mass murder in the name of God. This is simply the religious violence we have to contend with for the indefinite future. All we can do is what the Germans did: keep up surveillance (with protections against abuse), and run as many to ground as we can.

And this means, unfortunately, greater surveillance of mosques and other Muslim groups, no matter what their composition. It means a willingness to look at the Muslim community intensively, because that is where the violence and terrorism has taken root.

This is not to say that all Muslims are terrorists -- far from it. But unfortunately, the bulk of terrorists today are Muslims of one stripe or another, and we cannot ignore that fact. And as long as Muslim groups run to the defense of any accused individual, and as long as the Muslim community silently allows such extremism to grow in its midst, an cloud of suspicion will unfortunately hang over the community as a whole.

Yesterday I wrote about anti-Semitism growing in Briatain. need proof? Here it is.

A British current affairs magazine has compared the Marva and Gadna IDF youth summer programs to Islamic Jihad "summer camps," and questioned what the difference would be if the participants were British Muslims.

In the latest edition of New Statesman, journalist Matthew Holehouse begins his article, entitled "The British children who train to fight in Israel," by stating that Israel denounced the Islamic Jihad summer camps in Gaza, which trained Palestinian adolescents to become suicide bombers, after hearing about them in 2001.

However, he continues, "what went unreported was that at a purpose-built barracks in the Negev desert, every summer, hundreds of Jewish teenagers from Europe, Mexico and America pay to spend nine weeks saluting, marching, firing guns and otherwise pretending to be soldiers."

Holehouse then asks what would happen if these were young British Muslims who had trained in Yemen or Pakistan.

That Holehouse can't recognize the difference between Hamas and the IDF is pretty frightening to begin with -- I'm curious, does he believe teh RAF is the iquivalent of the Terrorstinians launching Qassam missles into civilian communityes? The IDF, for all the propaganda claims of the pro-terrorist left, does not indiscriminately attack civilians -- and as was shown in Lebanon last summer, only hit locations where terrorists were using civilians as cover for their attacks. under international law, Hezbollah was in violation and Israel was not in such situations.

There is no moral equivalence between Hamas and Israel, any more than there was moral equivalence between the US and Nazi germany in 1943. Any attempt to draw an equivalence between Israel and the terrorists out to destroy that nation can be seen as nothing short of anti-Semitism -- and of a variety that is every bit as genocidal as that which ruled in Nazi Gemany.

After all, no one can argue that a day care center is a military target.

A Palestinian rocket exploded Monday next to a day care center crowded with toddlers in southern Israel, sparking anger and panic in the frequently targeted town of Sderot and bringing warnings of retribution from Israeli leaders.

No one was hurt, but the blast and the panic underlined Israel's ineffectiveness in the face of the primitive rockets, which fall daily despite frequent Israeli airstrikes and occasional ground offensives.

Terrified mothers rushed to comfort their screaming babies, schoolchildren ran for cover, and angry parents said they wouldn't send their children back to school until they get classrooms outside town.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert pledged to provide "better security for the residents," indicating he would step up the Israeli offensive against Palestinian militants.

"We will not limit ourselves in regards to targeting the rocket launchers and those who dispatch them," Olmert said at a news conference in Jerusalem. "The instruction given to the army is to destroy every 'Qassam' rocket launcher and anyone who is involved in their launching against the residents of Israel."

The people of Sderot have been under siege for some time now, as the Terrorstinians continue to bombard this civilian community with Qassam rockets. The international community has remained silent, despite teh fact that these attacks violate every norm of international law.

Olmert's new policy is the minimum step that should be taken in the face of continued attacks upon the civilian population of Israel.

And takes the whole national security/defense team with him. How's that for a display of confidence in the troops and the Surge?

President Bush greeted his war commanders with salutes Monday during a surprise visit to a U.S. air base in Iraq's Anbar province.

Air Force One touched down at Al Asad Air Base at 3:43 p.m. (7:43 a.m. EDT) under a blazing sun.

The White House said the base was chosen because of the "remarkable turnaround" in the mostly Sunni region west of Baghdad.

Bush plans to eat dinner with U.S. troops and to meet with top military commanders, the U.S. ambassador, Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and provincial tribal leaders.

Bush has hailed Anbar as a success, citing the U.S. military's alliance with tribal leaders in fighting al Qaeda in Iraq.

Marine commanders on the ground told Bush that "morale is high," despite long troop rotations.

The president was expected to deliver televised remarks from the base at about 12:30 ET.

* * *

Also joining Bush on the Iraq visit are U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, national security adviser Stephen Hadley, Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Peter Pace, a senior White House official said.

Jules Crittenden has a great roundup of the news of the visit. And i do wish that the President would take up the suggestion of a visit to Fallujah or Ramadi. Not only our troops, but the Iraqi people need the sign of support that such a visit would be.

Captain Ed offers this analysis.

How will this affect the debate on Iraq here in the US? It will show that more of Iraq has been secured in a rather dramatic fashion. A year ago, a presidential visit to Anbar would have been a ludicrous suggestion. His meetings with tribal leaders may have been even more ludicrous regardless of whether they occurred in Anbar or Baghdad. It cuts through the filters of conventional wisdom and media narratives to make a rather bold point about the progress since the start of the surge.

More importantly, how does this affect politics inside Iraq? By meeting with Maliki, Bush can assuage some hurt feelings over calls for Maliki's ouster by Hillary Clinton and Carl Levin. However, his meetings with tribal leaders will demonstrate that the US will be willing to work with a broad range of political leadership, a move that should send a message to Maliki. It will be a recognition of tribal leaders who have chosen political engagement rather than terrorist support, which will strengthen the momentum towards political reform.

It's a smart move in all directions. Bush has once again shown the relevance and the power of the presidency, and he chose the best possible time for this demonstration.

He is exactly right in this -- as the Petraeus report looms on the horizon, it is important that the President see what is going on in Iraq, just like the many members of Congress who have visited over the last few weeks -- most of them expressing confidence in the troops and the mission after their return.

In addition, could you imagine the response of the leftards who are now frothing over this visit if President Bush had not broken his journey to Australia with a stop in Iraq? We'd be hearing that he is a coward, that he doesn't care about the troops, and that Iraq isn't really safe. Instead they are angry that he did stop to visit. it must be great having BDS -- no matter what W does, you can always use it as a reason to hate him!

1 I thought President Bush visit was terrific.
Furthermore the media did not point out the President Bush did not wear a flap jacket or an other protective garment.
A great leader is President Bush!

Just to remind you what savages run the Terrorstinian Anarchy.

Hamas gunmen opened fire on their own supporters Saturday, killing a teenager at a protest on the Gaza-Egypt border, hospital officials said.

Tens of thousands of flag-waving Hamas supporters gathered at the Rafah border crossing with Egypt to demand it be reopened. The border, Gaza's only gateway to Egypt, has been shut since Hamas' bloody takeover of the Gaza Strip in June.

Hamas gunmen guarding the border fired in the air as hundreds of protesters tried to rush the border terminal and go into Egypt.

A 17-year-old was shot in the head and later pronounced dead, medics said. Seven others were trampled or wounded by gunfire.

I'm truly beginning to believe that there are some people who cannot run their own affairs -- and the Terrorstinians are clearly among them. Given tehm a state of their own? You must be kidding!

And in the process ignores why such commemorations remain important to us as a nation.

Again it comes, for the sixth time now — 2,191 days after that awful morning — falling for the first time on a Tuesday, the same day of the week.

Again there will be the public tributes, the tightly scripted memorial events, the reflex news coverage, the souvenir peddlers.

Is all of it necessary, at the same decibel level — still?

Each year, murmuring about Sept. 11 fatigue arises, a weariness of reliving a day that everyone wishes had never happened. It began before the first anniversary of the terrorist attack. By now, though, many people feel that the collective commemorations, publicly staged, are excessive and vacant, even annoying.

“I may sound callous, but doesn’t grieving have a shelf life?” said Charlene Correia, 57, a nursing supervisor from Acushnet, Mass. “We’re very sorry and mournful that people died, but there are living people. Let’s wind it down.”

Some people prefer to see things condensed to perhaps a moment of silence that morning and an end to the rituals like the long recitation of the names of the dead at ground zero.

But many others bristle at such talk, especially those who lost relatives on that day.

The article goes on to compare 9/11 to Pearl Harbor, Fort Sumter, and even a maritime fire that killed nearly 1100 people in New York harbor. In doing so, I believe the article mises the point.

The events of September 11 still resonate for three reasons.

First, they are the event that we mark in our minds as the beginning of the current war between the United States and jihadi terrorists. As such, the horrific events of that day serve as a pointed reminder of why we fight -- indeed, of why we must fight -- the Islamist foe. The Confederacy is dead and buried. Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany have been defeated and emerged as valued allies. But this latter day enemy is still at war with us, in Iraq and Afghanistan -- and dozens of cities and town where planned terrorist plots have been thwarted. Commemorations of that day's horror keep us focused on what we are up against, and the price of failing to be vigilant and prepared.

Second, 9/11 is an event different than any other in American history. America has been attacked by foreign enemies in the past -- but never has that attack been so directly aimed at our civilian population using the ordinary elements of our daily lives. Like it or not, Fort Sumter and Pearl Harbor are fundamentally different because they were military attacks upon military forces at military installations -- and I've often argued that the reason the attack upon the Pentagon resonates differently with Americans is not merely a question of numbers, but also of our recognition that our military personnel have signed up to face America's enemies while office workers and janitors in a skyscraper have not.

Lastly, we lived those events with an immediacy that we did not, indeed could not, live any other event in American history. Television, radio, and the internet placed every single one of us at Ground Zero immediately We remained there for days There is a psychic connection nationwide that no other event in American history to this point can match. While some are ready to move on, a great many of us still feel an attachment to the events of September 11 and those who died that day.

Is it time to scale things back? I don't think so, and I don't know when it will be.

And somehow I don't expect CAIR and the other Muslim groups to retract their claims of innocence and racial profiling -- even after the convictions come based upon these indictments.

wo Egyptian students at the University of South Florida were indicted Friday on charges of carrying explosive materials across states lines and one was accused of teaching the other how to use them for violent reasons.

Ahmed Abdellatif Sherif Mohamed, 24, an engineering graduate student and teaching assistant at the Tampa-based university, faces terrorism charges for teaching and demonstrating how to use the explosives.

He and Youssef Samir Megahed, 21, an engineering student, were stopped for speeding Aug. 4 in Goose Creek, S.C., where they have been held on state charges.

The two men were stopped with pipe bombs in their car near a Navy base in South Carolina where enemy combatants have been held. They were held on state charges while the FBI continued to investigate whether there was a terrorism link.

Mohamed was charged with distributing information relating to explosives, destructive devices, and weapons of mass destruction, which is a terrorism-related statute, a Justice Department official said. The crime carries a maximum of 20 years in prison.

He and Megahed both face with charges of transporting explosives in interstate commerce without permits, which carries a 10-year prison penalty. Their defense attorney, Andy Savage, did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

And it appears that there is a third suspect who fled to Canada. Could we have ANOTHER international terrorist plot centering around the Muslim community in Florida?
