...Recently, my hometown newspaper featured a front page article by none other than a muslim professor teaching at our local college. His article, of course, was against the war in Iraq and was anti-American. I just shuddered because I know 90% of the people in our town disagree with everything he said and everything he stands for but few will say anything because of political correctness. Also, his status as a professor protects him. Homeland security had better be monitoring EVERY mideast "professional" who has come to this country over the past 30 years. This is war and it is here.

You know, there are an awful lot of global forces lining up against America in the early part of this century.

- Iran pushing ahead with nuclear capability
- China rapidly modernizing armed forces
- Russia quietly aiding America's enemies on multiple fronts
- Mexico successfully deploys fifth column within America's borders
- Hard Left gaining momentum in France - aligned with Islamists
- Saudi Arabia quietly pumping billions of petrodollars into global network of madrasses which turn out legions of America-hating fanatics
- Over a billion Muslims, 90% of which would love to see America destroyed

America is certainly the most powerful nation on earth at present, but it is starting to look more and more like Gulliver, tied down by a thousand smaller antagonists.

Hard to see how America can survive intact for the next 50 years.

NIGHT FEVER
By Allahpundit   ·   April 01, 2006 11:32 PM

Michelle's due back tomorrow morning sometime so this is probably it for me. Thanks to everyone who linked and visited, and thanks of course to Michelle for the opportunity to sit in for her. An audience like this is something a deity could really get used to.

Some farewell links for your reading pleasure. Or horror, as the case may be.

· Drudge points to the Telegraph's story about attack plans being readied for Iran. There's no way to excerpt it; every sentence is blockquote worthy. I do want to note, though, for the benefit of those who don't regularly read the British papers that the Telegraph has been all over this story for months. I don't know who its sources are or how it got them, but its coverage has been genuinely stupendous. If you haven't bookmarked it yet, do so now. Whatever ends up happening with Iran, they'll have the story first.

· Drudge also links to Dana Priest's report in WaPo on the risk of retaliatory terror attacks inside the United States.

Stratfor says the mullahs are asking for it -- almost literally. Meanwhile, the U.S. embassy in Indonesia is warning citizens of a possible terror attack in that country tomorrow.

· Though written four years ago, Theodore Dalrymple's essay "The Barbarians at the Gates of Paris" remains the most harrowing treatment of France's banlieues I've ever read.

But tonight's Sunday Times expose of the murder of Ilan Halimi gives it a run for its money:

Details follow about ritual gang rapes and lighting people on fire for sport. Note the influence of Nazi-attired "comedian" Dieudonné M’Bala M’Bala, about whom LGF has more.

· The ADL puts on its hip waders and heads down into the sewer. As it turns out, the Arab press's sensitivity to respect for religion in the context of editorial cartooning is kind of a selective thing.

Lots of evidence at the ADL website. Just keep clicking.

"Silence is Wisdom"

Via PJ Media, whose Iraq Files Project is gaining a good deal of attention worldwide, comes yet another translation of a captured Iraqi document, this time appearing on Ray Robison’s site (with analysis).* This particular document, if the translation is correct, is of a memo that “contains a detailed list of instructions on how Iraqi intelligence personnel should conduct themselves while ‘visiting’ Afghanistan’”.

The memo itself is not too lengthy, and Robison provides a number of translator’s notes that attempt to place it in its proper strategic context. 

You can read the full translation of “Iraqi memo: how to be incognito in Afghanistan” here.   20 Comments

Arab press more anti-Semitic than ever

When Islam Breaks Down--And the problem is that so many Muslims want both stagnation and power: they want a return to the perfection of the seventh century and to dominate the twenty-first, as they believe is the birthright of their doctrine, the last testament of God to man. If they were content to exist in a seventh-century backwater...

The Evvvvvvil Google Does

Google has become an arm of the enemy, officially . We (the blogs) have been reporting on their complicity with terror groups for some time now. I have posted on it here and here and more on Google here. Filou of Views on World Affairs writes here; This is a news outfit? Google sees fit to qualify MURDER INC as a news source? Who died and gave these evil clowns  such dangerous power?  Google refuses to  give news agency status  to Little Green Footballs. Frankly it is one of the few news organizations providing real news. One of the few TRUTHTELLERS.

On Clitorectomy-Dr. Muhammad Wahdan:"Reality is a mistake, we must rectify it"

Clitorectomy: euphemism female circumcision: Muhammad_danish_cartoon_tees_shirt_004_6

In Egypt we have four and a half million spinsters. The definition of a spinster is a woman who has reached 30, without ever receiving a marriage proposal. We have a spinster problem in the Arab world, and the last thing we want is for them to be sexually aroused. Circumcision of the girls who need it makes them chaste, dignified, and pure.

From MEMRI TV via LGF,  a mind-altering show from Kuwait’s Al-Rai TV, featuring an Egyptian Islamic expert discussing the finer points of female genital mutilation.

Every left wing feminist should hang her head in deep, deep shame. The left has aided and abetted the most barbaric misogynists of the 20th and 21st centuries. What in Gd's name are they doing? They love ideas, hate people. Chesler said "Because feminist academics and journalists are now so heavily influenced by left ways of thinking, many now believe that speaking out against head scarves, face veils, the chador, arranged marriages, polygamy, forced pregnancies, or female genital mutilation is either "imperialist" or "crusade-ist."

Attacking Iran

Us_iran_attack
So Iran is playing possum. Showing off this year's souped up, record breaking "Whale" - yawn. Sorry but I am unimpressed. If this was the level of war games, I would hardly notice. There is no doubt in my mind that the creative, brilliant, scientific, technological minds in the US and Israel would beat the living daylights out of the oppressive, morally and fiscally bankrupt regime of Iran with little to no effort.

It's the damn nukes in the hands of these savages that keeps me up at night. So yes the following would be  good;

Government in secret talks about strike against Iran

The Government is to hold secret talks with defence chiefs tomorrow to discuss possible military strikes against Iran.

A high-level meeting will take place in the Ministry of Defence at which senior defence chiefs and government officials will consider the consequences of an attack on Iran.

It is believed that an American-led attack, designed to destroy Iran's ability to develop a nuclear bomb, is "inevitable" if Teheran's leaders fail to comply with United Nations demands to freeze their uranium enrichment programme.

They have 30 days.

There are thought to be at least eight known sites within Iran involved in the production of nuclear materials, although it is generally accepted that there are many more secret installations.

Of course, all parties have denied that such a meeting took place. Uh yeah ...ok.  wink

The question for me remains - why is Iran provoking the West to war? There is a very deliberate strategy in play here.

Barbarians at the gates

The Sunday Times of London examines the animus behind the horrifying murder of Ilan Halimi: "Barbarians of suburbs target French Jews." The Times is linked in Allahpundit's swan song as guest blogger over at Michelle Malkin. In the same roundup Allahpundit reminds us of Theodore Dalrymple's prescient four-year old essay: "Barbarians at the gates of Paris."

I posted this in another thread, but it seems appropriate to repost it here. It doesn't say who the perps are, this is after all al-Swedenistan, but I think I can guess. The number of rape charges in Sweden has quadrupled in in just above twenty years. Rape cases involving children under the age of 15 are six - 6 - times as common today as they were a generation ago. Resident aliens from Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia dominate the group of rape suspects:

The Struggle Between Good and Evil

This story speaks for itself. The mainstream media will paint Israel in the most impossible, almost demonic light while tenderly, gingerly making love to killers and savages. But the following story really says it all;

On Thursday evening, an Israeli couple gave rides to three hitchhikers. One, disguised as a religious Jew, was a suicide bomber, who blew himself up in the car at the entrance to the community of Kedumim. Body parts were hurled dozens of feet. The car burned for an hour.

Unbowed, the International Herald Tribune cites a completely discredited, Jew hating study to prop up its antisemitic ravings here.

What is really at play here? A struggle as old as time.

France Riots: Savages Gone Wild

They're baaaaaaaaaaaack. The hooded, head scarfed well financed "poor" thugs attacking, kicking, beating, destroying..............another glorious day in the war torn streets of Paris. Unbelievable.
France_riots_4_5
Complete chaos as we speak. Watching the barbarians tearing through the streets, out of control, is to watch the death of a society. Attacking the police, attacking the media and the legit mate protesters? I have no empathy. Who the fcuk wants to keep the first job they ever had?  I'd still be putting little gold tips on belts, or babysitting the Shippenberg kids, or pumping gas while I was in college, or waitressing at the jazz club "the Atmosphere" in Uniondale, or fuggedabowdit............I had a gazillion jobs.
How do you grow? Oh that's right you don't.
Violence has erupted in the streets of Paris. That which the welfare state wrought and France pays the jiyza. The media calls them "hooligans",  I call them MUSLIMS...

"AXIS OF ISLAM"

Devastating piece in today's Wall Street Journal from a scholarI have long admired, Efraim Karsh.

All The News That Fits Our Mindset, Volume III

Michelle Malkin has an e-mail from Dateline NBC that tries to create artificial situations where the supposedly latent American hatred of Muslims can be caught on tape. And also on the intelligence topic, guess who broadcasts NASCAR? Do you suppose that the folks at NBC Sports might be dialing the News Division first thing this morning? I'm sure they will not be pleased to have Dateline NBC insinuate that NASCAR fans are nothing more than Muslim-hating bigots ... Comments (25)

NBC Setting Up a NASCAR Sting?

Dateline NBC is apparently trying to set up a sting, asking “Muslim males” to go to sporting events such as NASCAR accompanied by NBC’s hidden cameras so they can film all the gawking “bigots.” Michelle Malkin has the story: NBC: Staging the News Again?   link: 54 comments

#54 zombie  4/4/2006 12:10PM PDT
 

As a counterpoint to the NBC "bigotry sting":

They have to stage fraudulent news stories in order to get the images they want. And they get a complete pass from the Leftosphere. Yet people like me go out and record the most heinous behavior by lefties -- completely unstaged, raw authentic footage -- and it's dismissed by the Left as either unimportant or somehow "biased". Even when there is no manipulation or bias, we get accused of it. Leftie blogs savagely and ludicrously accused me of faking several of my notorious images (such as this one and this one), and of intentional bias in my reports (like this one). Of course I debunked their false accusations.

Google News Includes Terrorist Organization

I thought I was finished being surprised by the news sources officially chosen by Google News to include in their index.

Then I learned that Google News is giving their stamp of legitimacy to none other than the propaganda wing of the terrorist group Hizballah, Al-Manar—recently named by the US Treasury Department as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist organization: al-manar source:al_manar - Google News. (Hat tip: Atlas Shrugs.)

Hamas' Glee at 9/11

Any Anerican that would consider giving one red cent to Hamas, our enemy,  should be forced to read this everyday, after reciting the pledge of allegiance.
THE MEMRI REPORT
How Hamas Greeted 9/11Wtc_jump
By STEVEN STALINSKY

Hamas praised the killing of thousands of Americans in the attacks of September 11, 2001, while saying Muslims could not have been involved — a similar response to those of other groups in the Middle East. Now that Hamas is running the Palestinian Authority, it is worth taking a second look at the terrorist organization’s official press outlets’ coverage of the attacks.

• “Allah has answered our prayers,” Dr. Atallah Abu Al-Subh wrote in an open letter titled “To America,” which appeared September 13,2001, in the Hamas mouthpiece Al-Risala. The Hamas publication also directed messages to high-ranking members of the Bush administration:

• “Every time Dick Cheney and his girlfriend Condoleezza Rice … admonish us [and] gloat at our misfortune, they incite more [violence against us]! We stand in line and beg Allah to give you to drink from the cup of humiliation — and behold, heaven has answere. … America, you planted in the hearts of all men … the seedling of hatred of you! You never considered that the day would come when the saplings would grow and put out your eyes … at the top of the World Trade Center ...Those saplings grew and spread and struck at the liver of the Pentagon. ... Don’t you see that thorns have reached the eyes of your strong Secretary of Defense, Rumsfeld, who thought that he was too strong to be hurt by the thorns of vengeance … Perhaps you realize, after Rumsfeld fled,that he is only an ordinary man,” Al-Risala contributors wrote shortly after the attacks.

• “The Jews infiltrated the American Army, particularly the Air Force and they pressured pilots to take the planes, knowing that religion is not denoted in the identity cards of those joining the American military. Accordingly the airplanes were [controlled] by the Jews. … Why is Bush ignoring these facts.… Don’t act like you don’t know who is behind the recent events…” a Hamas activist, Yussef Al-’Azam, wrote in a Hamas newspaper, Al-Sabil, on October 4, 2001.

The letter also belittled the American military and concluded by blessing the attacks on America:

• “How much hatred has [America] stockpiled. … Were the eradication of its Marines in Lebanon, the destruction of its military headquarters at Khobar in Saudi Arabia, the destruction of the USS Cole in Yemen, the bombing of its embassies in Zambia [sic] and in Kenya, and the attacks on its soldiers in the Gulf … not sufficient? The U.S. should have learned the lessons of history … Today, the U.S. has treated the bitter harvest it sowed in the hearts of millions. Today, we ask: After this, will the U.S. [continue to] think that it is above the law?” the editor of Al-Risala, Dr. Ghazi Hamad, said in justification of the attacks days after September 11, 2001.

Some of the most vulgar responses to the attacks of September 11, 2001, were the celebrations in the Palestinian streets, including shouts of joy by women. Hamas’ reaction to the attacks was equally as disturbing yet not really shocking.

France's Future - Nearer Than We Imagine?


Folks,

This morning, there were some horrific reports and pictures of an upsurge in violence on the streets of Paris - the usual "youths" and "students."

I know that many of us think France is circling the drain pretty darned fast, and that it's entirely possible that much of the rest of "Old Europe" isn't far behind.

There is one Eastern European author, though, who "gets it" and is very, very knowledgeable about Islam. The problem is so worrisome to her that, in view of the ever increasing frequency and intensity of the violence in France, she has written a very compelling novel called "Hatred of the Angels."

Because of the level of PC in Europe, she has been unable to find a publisher. We thought her vision of the future was so important, so educational, that we offered to publish it chapter at a time, about once a month, over at 6thCAJ. So far,three chapters have been published, with about nine to go. The titles of all of them are listed.

John Sobieski said...

I've been reading the online novel as it is published. Another fascinating novel is Jean Raspall's Camp of the Saints. Sadly, both will leave you disillusioned with the future if there is not a radical shift in Western leadership to defend Western civilization.

ALL THE NEWS THAT'S FIT TO STAGE

***update: NBC official confirms that Dateline is working on the story...see below..Little Green Footballs sheds light on Tarek El-Messidi, Tennessee-based Muslim activist and purported author of the e-mail solicitation detailing Dateline's wishes; LGF also has details on a similar media sting operation by Czech TV...***

Mailbox is filling up with reaction to my blog post this morning about NBC's Dateline show and its apparent Nascar fans-must-be-racist sting.

A sample:

Reader Joanthan M. calls for "An Army of NASCAR Davids" (meme nod to Glenn Reynolds):

Just had a thought I wanted to share - what a great opportunity NBC's news creation can provide to the blogosphere!. If word gets out to NASCAR fans (perhaps in part via your blog) that 1) NBC is trying to paint them as ignorant bigots, 2) they should be extra-super-duper nice to Muslims at the Apr. 8 race, and 3) they should bring their handheld video cameras to tape NBC taping them so that when NBC can't find any bigotry to air, they can expose Dateline as the one possessed with bigotry, of the anti-red stater race fan variety, that is.

E.L. Core's message to Dateline:

440pm EST update: Just received this forwarded e-mail from the nationally syndicated Lars Larson radio show, which contacted NBC official Jenny Tartikoff and invited her or someone from NBC on to talk about the network's, uh, news-gathering methods:

Glenn Reynolds quips: "If they air the show, I want to see the raw, unedited tape."

ERIC MCERLAIN POINTS OUT something that hadn't occurred to me: And reader Eric Hall offers a new assignment: "Dateline NBC ought to take some Christian-looking people to Riyadh and see how things work out. Don't forget the bikini-clad sister."

Blogger Chad Evans caught a hilarious error in NBC's sting operations:

NBC Setting Up a NASCAR Sting?

Dateline NBC is apparently trying to set up a sting, asking “Muslim males” to go to sporting events such as NASCAR accompanied by NBC’s hidden cameras so they can film all the gawking “bigots.” Michelle Malkin has the story: NBC: Staging the News Again?

   link: 253 comments

 

ARNOLD KLING ON fear of confrontation: "Unfortunately, large segments of American society no longer have the ability to confront real evil. People lack the confidence and moral clarity to stand up to intimidation. . . . One can view Islamic militants as armed versions of unruly teenagers. We should not feel guilty toward them. We should demand reasonable and decent behavior from them, rather than excuse their tantrums or their crimes."

That would require thinking of ourselves as adults, which is unacceptable to many. On his Instapundit blog, fellow TCS contributor Glenn Reynolds has pointed out the way in which the recent cartoon controversy illustrates that the West allows itself to be bullied by Islamic militants. The cartoons depicting Mohammed may offend Muslims, but they do not threaten Muslims or incite violence against Muslims. Still, because of violent Muslim protest of the cartoons, our supposedly staunch free press has refrained from publishing them. As the writer Stephen Green put it, "We've seen what American bookstores and publications and universities do when confronted with real fascists: they knuckle under."

New acronym hits the EU protest lexicon.

Terrorism = EMD ["Extreme Muslim Demonstration"]

London bombers not terrorists - professor

LONDON'S suicide bombings were not the acts of terrorists but just an extreme Muslim demonstration, a Chester professor has claimed.

The attacks that killed 52 people and threw the country into shock last July were part of a long history of demonstrations sparked by British Muslims, according to Professor Ron Geaves.
-----
As part of his research, the professor's recent report looks at the history of demonstrations by British Muslims.

From the 1980s Salman Rushdie demonstrations to the anti-war protests surrounding the Iraq war, his work charts the changing nature of Muslim communities in Britain.

Terrorism is just freedom of expression now, you see.

Maybe that's why Ibrahim Hooper and CAIR are pimping cartoon rage backlash in Texas today?

Muslim student believes attacker came from off campus

America's largest Muslim civil liberties group asked the FBI and Waco law enforcement Tuesday to investigate the weekend attack of a Muslim student at Baylor as a hate crime.

Rabiah Ahmed, a spokeswoman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said the woman contacted them Monday, reporting that she was attacked between 8 and 9 p.m. Saturday as she was walking on campus near Draper Academic Building.

Ahmed said the woman was attacked from behind by a white man thought to be in his 30s who pushed and slapped her, used violent anti-Muslim language and pulled her hijab, the headscarf worn by Muslim women, before threatening to kill her.
-----
Council on American-Islamic Relations communications director Ibrahim Hooper said in a statement released Tuesday that "local, state and national leaders ... need to speak out against the rising level of Islamophobic hate in our society that can lead to such attacks."

Or maybe this is just another Muslim hate hoax?

Apparently, the "victim" is a cartoon rage activist at Baylor.

NASCAR to NBC: "Any Legitimate Journalist Should Be Ashamed"

Michelle Malkin reports that NASCAR is not pleased with NBC News’ attempt to stage an anti-Muslim news event: link: 111 comments

 

Michelle Malkin had a scoop yesterday: NBC's Dateline program put out a call for Muslims--but only those who "look Muslim"--to parade around at a NASCAR event, hoping to draw a hostile reaction from red-state "bigots" that NBC could film. So Dateline wanted to stage a fake news story intended to discredit NASCAR fans (i.e., conservatives) by catching them in the act of bigotry.

Michelle has follow-ups here, here, and here. The latest is that the Associated Press has picked up Michelle's story, and NASCAR has responded: What do you think the chances are that they'll show this video of American soldiers distributing Toys for Tots to Muslim Iraqi kids?

NASCAR has responded to NBC. They're not happy. NBC has apparently already been trawling their ringers around racing fans without managing to produce any untoward events.

You really need to do a better job of manufacturing your fake news, NBC.  I want them to send undercover journalists to Mecca during Ramadan disguised as a mixed party of Orthodox Jews, Evangelical Christians, and Hare Krishnas.

The December issue of The Atlantic featured an excerpt from Mark Bowden's forthcoming book on the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis, Guests of the Ayatollah: The First Battle in America's War With Militant Islam. The April Atlantic now features a second excerpt as its cover story: "The Desert One Debacle." The Atlantic has set up a special page for the excerpt, loading interviews adjacent to the text and providing many links to related materials.

VDH: Has Ahmadinejad Miscalculated?

It’s Friday, and that means Victor Davis Hanson has another well-reasoned essay for us: Has Ahmadinejad Miscalculated?  "Ever since September 11, the subtext of this war could be summed up as something like, “Suburban Jason, with his iPod, godlessness, and earring, loves to live too much to die, while Ali, raised as the 11th son of an impoverished but devout street-sweeper in Damascus, loves death too much to live.” The Iranians, like bin Laden, promulgate this mythical antithesis, which, like all caricatures, has elements of truth in it. But what the Iranians, like the al Qaedists, do not fully fathom, is that Jason, upon concluding that he would lose not only his iPod and earring, but his entire family and suburb as well, is capable of conjuring up things far more frightening than anything in the 8th-century brain of Mr. Ahmadinejad. Unfortunately, the barbarity of the nightmares at Antietam, Verdun, Dresden, and Hiroshima prove that well enough." link: 74 comments

Why this doesn't matter I'll never know.

While Tehran denies it is trying to develop a nuclear arsenal, ballistic missile experts advising the United States say it has succeeded in reconfiguring the Shahab-3 ballistic missile to carry nuclear weapons, the London Telegraph reports.

"This is a major breakthrough for the Iranians," said a senior U.S. official, according to the London paper. "They have been trying to do this for years and now they have succeeded. It is a very disturbing development." More here

Not Dhimmitude but attitude, Part Two

Our friend Diana West writes the following in response to my post about her column comparing the Islamic concept of dhimmitude to the attitude of many illegal immigrants in this country: The similarities that really hit home for me lie in the attitudes of the host cultures: Europe and the US. Both are being irreversibly transformed by demographic changes wrought by influxes of peoples, legal and illegal, who are not going to assimilate in such a way as to perpetuate the culture as it exists--existed. But in both Europe and the US it is verboten to notice, discuss, debate, and certainly oppose this epochal--irreversible (Europe) or soon to be (US)--turning point in the history of mankind.

The Timing Of The Iraqi Air Force Memo

Now that we have established the translation of the memo from the Iraqi Air Force general to all units requesting volunteers for suicide missions against American "interests", the timing of the memo appears to fit into a disturbing sequence in the months prior to 9/11. This memo is dated March 17, 2001, In a series of posts I wrote last year, I pointed out activity in Germany by the Iraqi Intelligence Service that the 9/11 Commission missed. Specifically, the Germans arrested two IIS agents in late February for their operation of an espionage ring in their country. In the winter of 2001, however, those agents had operated in Germany at the same time as Mohammed Atta met Ramzi Binalshibh in Berlin, As I asked in my Weekly Standard column last year, why would the main terror cell risk traveling abroad eight months before the attack? Once again, let's review why the 9/11 Commission reached their conclusion: Comments (7) |

This one document demonstrates that had we not acted to topple Saddam Hussein, he would have acted to kill Americans around the world. Read the whole thing and use the links here:

That loathesome dirtbag Sy Hersh has apparently written a hysterical piece about how the Bush administration is planning on using nuclear bunker busters on Iranian nuclear facilities.

Naturally, all the sources are anonymous "senior intelligence officals" and the story fits with the MSM's meta-narrative that the Bush administration is messianic, incompetent, and dismissive of any council outside Bush's "bubble".

Your scenario is flawed. In fact, it is idiotic.
Israel has over 400 working nukes, including at least one or two (or more) H-bombs. They can send each and every one of these to Tehran immediately. They believe in preemptive strikes, as history shows.
There will be no more Iran to whine to the UN or the NY Times, trust me. It will be a melted, glowing ashtray, filled with skinny charcoal briquettes.
When Israelis says "never again" they mean it.

I sincerely doubt Iran has any Soviet warheads, let alone 250. Even if they somehow managed to obtain any, they'd be pretty much worthless without the correct arming codes, thanks to "permissive action link" (PAL) technology, which we shared with and was adopted by the Soviets, in order to prevent unauthorized use, such as in the case of accident or theft.

Weapons of Mass Destruction Found

'The Iraqi Regime Has Transported The Chemical And Biological Weapons'

CQ reader Sapper sends along a new document from the captured files of the Saddam Hussein regime, one that had just been released on Friday, that has notations indicating where WMD stockpiles might be found. The information on the memo has not been translated but the notations themselves sound breathtaking: In case the DoD website gets slow, I've also uploaded the document to my server here.   Comments (39)

Saddam Targeted American Assets For Terrorism: Case Closed (Bumped)

A few days ago, I posted a translation of a document culled from the captured Iraqi documents that the US found during Operation Iraqi Freedom. This particular memo, dated March 17, 2001, comes from a brigadier general in the Iraqi Air Force and requests a list of volunteers from all units under his command for suicide attackers. The memo explicitly explains the targets for these terrorist attacks, as the original translation from Joseph Shahda shows: When I posted this document, readers of this blog questioned the accuracy of the translation. People know that Joseph translated this for Free Republic, a strongly pro-war website, and that it was distributed by Laurie Mylroie, another pro-war commentator. Skeptics felt that this pedigree lent itself to a possibly warped interpretation of the memo.  I found a translation service, Language 123, that employs a number of translators who work as free agents. The first translator, Nabil Bouitieh, works in the UK as a full-time translator for several government services. He has language certificates from Karl Marx University in Dresden, the German Cultural Center in Damascus, a degree in translation from Polytechnic of Central London, and a Masters of Diplomatic Studies from the Diplomatic Academy of London. Separately, I also hired Hamania H, who works from Damascus.

Neither of them knew that I had asked the other to translate the document. I split out page 6 from the original PDF and sent it to both along with payment. They both returned their translations today, and their results make it clear that Joseph Shahda had it right all along. First, we have Nabil Bouitieh: Now here's the translation of the same passage from Hamania H:

UPDATE: Why "case closed"? Because this shows that Saddam had recruited suicide bombers to attack American interests -- showing that destroying Saddam's regime is an integral part of the war on terror, not a distraction.

What else could this memo mean? I look at the timing of this recruitment drive in this post.

Saddam's Past Terrorism Connections Have Future Consequences


A U.S. House oversight subcommittee conducts the first public hearing today on the lessons gleaned from the first review of the vast storehouse of Saddam's intelligence documents. They will hear today from two military officers involved in the preparation of the Iraq Perspectives Project (see my post on it earlier) and from an official of the Director of National Intelligence, and Congressmen will also discuss the release of documents by the U.S. Army Foreign Military Studies Office at Ft. Leavenworth, which has been the subject of numerous articles and columns. The skepticism in official IC circles with respect to the value of these documents remains, but we should recall that (a) committed and careful terrorists not only don't die, but they never fade away either; and (b) the IC, including the FBI, missed the use of U.S.-based Islamic charities in the 1980s and 1990s to fund Islamic terrorism. Rest here

Imminent U.S. Attack On Iran.........?

Seymour Hersh, whose left wing sympathies are blatantly obvious reports that the Bush administration is planning for a major air attack on Iran, according to his article published on the New Yorker magazine website today (another completely leftarded magazine to which I stopped subscribing after 9/11 when Susan Sontag blamed us for the attack in the September 24th 2001 issue when the fires were still burning and the smell of burning flesh, plastic, paper, rubber, the smell of burnt everything hung heavy in the air.)

Another Day, Another Smear

The anti-LGF lefty smear machine is kicking into gear again. Firedoglake says I’m a racist, and all my readers are racists, and by extension all “conservatives” are racists too. “Racist,” in this case, being defined as “critical of Islam.” And they’ve found someone who has no life to cherry pick through 2,634,139+ comments to prove it. link: 164 comments --the left has overused the "racism" charge to the point that it's meaningless. Like the feminists of the 60's who just can't accept that women are essentially equal (for better and worse) in today's America, they just can't let go. The Racism charge gave them power in the past, and they're not ready to let go of it, even if it's leads to their downfall.

"The key point behind this whole topic is this:In the PC universe constructed by the Left, the worst insult, and the worst thing you can be, is a "racist." In fact, the mere accusation of racism is sufficient. To be called a racist is to be socially destroyed, to be cast out of the tribe. The one thing a leftie fears more than anything else is to be called racist. But what they have not yet grasped is the we don't play that game, and the accusation falls off us like water off a duck's back. In our world view, the mere accusation of mass racism does nothing to damage our self-esteem, because the accusation is baseless. "

Saddam's Terror Network and WMD

This is a no brainer. The media's war on America continues unabated but these facts are irrefutable. America, get yer head outta yer ass, this is a war we must win. This aint no Vietnam where you can turn tail and run. These barbarians are coming after you.Head_up_ass_2

Saddam was undeniably involved in terrorism.

Iraqis had WMDs and did their utmost  to hide them here and here

1997 Document: Orders To Remove All Information Related To WMD From Computers (Translation)
Pentagon/FMSO website on Iraqi Pre-war documents

And over at Captains Quarters,  Saddam Targeted American Assets For Terrorism: Case Closed

this shows that Saddam had recruited suicide bombers to attack American interests -- showing that destroying Saddam's regime is an integral part of the war on terror, not a distraction. hat tip Mik

Where is the media....hellllooooooo. Echoooooooooooooooooo. Screaming into the void.

Captain's Quarters: Case Closed

Captain’s Quarters has a translation of an Iraqi document showing that Saddam Hussein recruited suicide bombers to attack American interests.

Prediction: this will have no effect on the “Bush lied, millions died!” crowd, who are in the grip of a derangement so severe that no facts or documents will ever have an impact.  Yes, and there were WMDs.    link: 32 comments

You're referring to the work by Laura Mylroie, which traces Saddam's involvment in a secret war against the US since the end of the first Gulf War?
