Not to sound like an anti-American communist, but this looks like the data massaging technique practiced in Vietnam to give commanders the false assurance that their tactics and strategies were a success.
A Small Point on that 'Military Report Card'
I'd just like to draw your attention to one slide from that military report card, the one on Enemy Initiated Attacks. What I want to draw your attention to is the "ISAF Observations" portion of the slide, but first let me explain how I read the chart. The important thing about this slide is ...
Why did interviewer conclude that Pamela Geller is not a fan of NY1 News, especially, since she agreed to be a guest?
Pamela Geller on NY1's 'The Call' responding to Hamas-CAIR
Hamas-CAIR, seething with Islamic Jew-hatred, spewed vicious libel (unchallenged) on NY1's "The Call." Here is my response ...... Hamas-CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR operatives have repeatedly refused to denounce H...
I'm surprised that this cleric said such a thing, because former theologian in chief, George W. Bush, assured us that Islam is a religion of peace.
World's Leading Islamic University Al-Azhar Cleric Hashem Islam Ali Islam: Suicide Bombings Are a Religious Duty
President Obama made his infamous submission speech to the Muslim world at Al Azhar University back in June 2009. President Obama invited the then-banned Muslim Brotherhood to hear his speech. Obama described Al-Azhar University this way: "For over a thousand years, Al-Azhar has stood as a beac...
I'm not surprised by any of this. I'm greatly annoyed, but not surprised.
Obama told authorities not to crack down on lawless #OWS 'Occupy' protesters, documents show
More proof of the hate that the destroyer in chief has for this great nation. The #OWS movement was rife with rape, murder, anti-semitism and violence against law-abiding citizens and businesses, and this abject lawlessness was sanctioned and advanced by the White House -- the threats, the killi...
This is one of the few times that I agree with RINO Sen Collins & Sen Lieberman:
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/lieberman-fort-hood-massacre-could-have-been-prevented-government-officials-guilty
"Lieberman said the Hasan case demonstrates that even after the 9/11 terrorist attacks the federal government still has not “adequately defined the roles and responsibilities of agencies of our government and other institutions of our society that must effectively counter radicalization to violent Islamist extremism in our country.”"
“Final Report of the William H. Webster Commission" dhimmis down on Fort Hood jihad
In other words, the independent panel in the Fort Hood jihad massacre said it's OK to slaughter US soldiers in the cause of Islam just as long as ....... you don't offend Islam. Major Hassan was a self-proclained soldier of allah. He came out as a jihadi on grand rounds. The other doctors who wo...
Hey now! I'm from Pennsylvania where we have a statue to dedicated to Molly Pitcher, because Fighting Quakers, both male & female, are awesome:

So, if any more red coats invade New Jersey, we're ready to fight! Grrr!
Washington Post memory holes Jessica Lynch
The Washington Post was one of the major players in creating the myth that Jessica Lynch was one of the first heroes of the Iraq War. They ran this story on their front page based on faulty reporting and incorrect information they developed. The military did not participate this and actually tol...
I believe Hanoi Jane Fonda's dad, Henry Fonda, served in the navy during WWII, oddly enough
Hollywood goes to war
I find it interesting to see what celebrities have served in the Armed Forces. Ronald Reagan was an actor in the Army, and Don Knotts – also Army – was a comedian. Bill Cosby served as a hospital corpsman in the Navy. Humphrey Bogart served in the Navy after World War I. Other celebrity veterans...
"Pentagon's war propaganda effort" Massaging data & publishing false stories obviously did more harm than good. Lynch & her comrades were just as much victims of poor training & faulty comm as anything else.

Golly, but the US State Department has assured us that the Muslim Brotherhood is mostly secular /sarc
Obama's Anti-Freedom legacy: Muslim Brotherhood to lead government in Libya
Obama's tacit support and advancement of the supremacist Muslim Brotherhood spreads over continents. You thought Qaddafi was bad (and he was), you ain't seen nothing yet. Sharia is worse. Much. Always. Obama's war on freedom is meticulously documented here. Libya's top politicians have hatched ...
It's completely childish & immature of me, but Gen. Dempsey reminds me of a Keebler elf. Mea culpa...
Making friends at the Army/Navy game
(Editor [LTC SAM]- Most entertaining pics are below the fold, your commentary is most graciously invited) OK, so the college football team for the Navy beat the college football team for the Army. That has caused a bunch of Navy types to make big noise. I want to remind them of just one thing: T...
The official DNC media line is that Murtha was known for helping veterans & I was wondering what, pray tell, he ever did useful for anybody. Of course, they didn't specify whose veterans, perhaps they referred solely to Iraqi & Al Qaeda veterans...
Rep John Murtha, 1932 - 2010
Representative John Murtha, the first Vietnam veteran to be elected to congress, died today. It is said it is impolite to speak ill of the dead, so I will just end there.
The new official meme seems to be that more hippies burning American flags is a good thing & more planes being blown up is also supposed to be indications that we're winning the war against terror:
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/terrorism/jan-june10/terrorism_02-01.html
"The support for terrorism, for violence, both in Muslim expatriates in the West and Muslims in the Middle East or South Asia, is diminishing, and dramatically diminishing. And strangely enough, ironically enough, in the past, when we have seen this contraction of a protest counterculture, the violence is increased at the tail end of that movement."
Juicebox Mafia- Gates covering for interrogation goat rope
Attackerman covers Sec Def Gates as John McCain attempts to get him to admit the glaringly obvious, that giving AbdulMutallab a lawyer was a gargantuan screw up. It doesn't work and I patiently and kindly point out why.
re: "Obama has stepped up drone strikes on terrorists in Pakistan"
This is about the about the only part of Obama's policy that I support. The rest of your post is Bravo Sierra. I don't agree that missile defense & modern USAF jets are "bloated and useless weapons programs" or people that fight the jihadists as "bedwetters"

The alleged progressive people in Brazil also like to murder nuns from Ohio. I wonder if Dorothy Stang inadvertently ran across smugglers when she tried to protect native people in the Amazon jungle.
Contraband Uranium Found in Brazilian Forest Bound For ......Iran?
In Brazil, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva welcomed his Iranian counterpart, President Ahmadinejad, late November 2009. In the January 7 Wall Street Journal: Finally, there is the issue of Brazil's apparent lack of concern regarding Iran's increasing penetration into Latin America thro...
