The US government has told the world its assassins have been murdering Muslims http://forums.military.com/1/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=78919038&f=9351915375&m=7141982136&r=7371998476#73719984768&output=gplain and other inconvenient people ever since administration of Roosevelt. Some results are: Islamic terrorists have been able to murder thousands of Americans, the Cold War has been replaced with Bush-league crusade against terrorism, world's largest oilfield is occupied by US armed forces, and American soldiers are killed nearly daily in country that had effectively suppressed anti-American terrorists. Americans nevertheless pay dearly in dollars as well as lives for oil provided by BushÂ’s cronies.

Sovereign nations must destroy imperialism. Although since 1985 the media has established US as imperialist assassinator, despite AP and other reports circulated among “American” broadcasters and publishers, few Americans realize that R ussia is deploying modernized http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/russia/icbm/rt-2pmu.htm intercontinental ballistic missiles as close as possible to the US.

Bush-league crusaders are officially policing the world for rest of the world’s own good. The world sees destabilization of Asia, Europe and African with Muslim emigration, the US squandering most of the world’s wealth, and US imperialist policies promising democracies in places already populated by suppressed Islamic “extremist” majorities with sufficient Muslim scientists to provide weapons of mass destruction to the Jihad. Truly democratic elections in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt or Pakistan promise legal institution of Islamic Jihad called for by Osama bin Ladin. Elections in US promise continuation of Bush-league crusade or reformation by the party of Clinton and Carter, or both.

Impeachment of US President and VP will leave intact US administration in charge of possibly competent General and politician. www.Vot eToImpeach.org

This came as a newsletter from military.com but ran a script error when opened. No attachements but the message is in html form. Newsletters from military.com is a daily email updating current news that is on the website. Links are shown as they were in the email not in proper format.The link above is to the website itself.

That's creepy. I hope not.

[Amelia]

I'd guess that it's one of those virus-type things that spoofs the return address. Some of the technogeeks around here could probably give you a better opinion than I.

[FormerlyAnotherLurker]

Would you post the e-mail headers?
Obfuscate your address though.

[explodingspleen]

Forging SMTP headers is embarassingly simple to do. There has been a lot of criticism of SMTP for that.

I would not attribute the message to a hack unless something on the site itself is suspicious.

But if you want to post the full headers of the message you received, I can tell you if the email originated from their server.

Look what came up the other day when I did a Google search for a picture of John Kerry with Daniel Ortega. I clicked on one photo of Ortega (now I can't remember which one):

I doubt it. There were no attachements and the error was a simple runtime error due to a mistake in coding a link that they had messed up. My AV is updated everyday.

There actually is a host in DNS called military.com too.

# host military.com
military.com has address 147.208.183.200

And the IP address is in that Savvis subnet posted above. Apparently they're being hosted by Savvis. Looks legit to me (network-wise).

[boxerblues]

Strange indeed the link in the message take you to a posting from June of 2003

[armymarinemom]

I reported it to them. My husband is on the same newsletter but didn't get his daily mail from them so it looks like the regular newsletters are down too.

That's really odd. I received this yesterday.

Your Voice of the Air Force

One of our members asks the question, "What is the definition of an Air Commando?" We have seen the termed used but who does it apply to and where did the term originate? Air Commandos are now the backbone of the airlift, insertion and extraction of special operations forces. Their history has typically been cloaked in secrecy or clandestine operations. Tell us what you know about Air Commandos in "Air Force Special Operations."
