Decay starts from within.

Good article bump.

Here's a link to Analysis: A mini-Tet offensive in Iraq?.

Two names missing from the list of 5th Column operatives are Vietnam Vets Against the War and Walter Cronkite.

This is what you idiots get for outlawing Dueling and for raising the standard for Treason.

"The U.S. is fighting more than just a War on Terror; she is fighting a homegrown cancer born of her own freedom."

This "cancer" we are fighting is called sin and has been with us since the beginning of time. God gave us a free will, and the freedom to choose right or wrong, to obey Him or disobey Him. The freedom we were given isn't the cause of this "homegrown cancer". Don't want to thrown out the baby w the bath water because some abuse so badly the freedoms here, and choose evil and disobedience. They are the problem - not the freedom we have.

There are plenty missing from this list. Jew-hating nutters who scream about "neocons", paleoconservatives who rail against Bush, anti-America conspiracy nutcakes - the 5th column is working hard to give the Islamofascists a victory.

Mix MoveOn.org’s ability to organize protests and its fund-raising tactics with John Kerry’s no vote on the $87 billion for our troops in Iraq and Ted Kennedy’s “Iraq is George W. Bush’s Vietnam” rhetoric, and the fog on the mirror of the past starts to clear.

Not really. Kerry's war position is little different from our current POTUS. In fact- the "appeaser" Kerry just called for more Americans to be sent to Iraq to the cheers of the "liberal" press and the "conservative" Weekly Standard.

All have always wondered about the origin of these terms:
I know what they refer to but I don't know how they came to be called that.
Third World
Fourth Estate
Fifth Column

[counterpunch]

You are correct. I should have been more specific about these being Vietnam era operatives.

[Delphinium]

They are the problem - not the freedom we have.

Well said

It is people allowing themselves to be used of evil, which are the ones that are attacking our God given freedom.

Including silent Christians.

I've just spent a few hours confirming the essential truth of what Mr. Salvato is saying.

Let me ask all of you a question: What have you read in the papers,or seen on TV, about the deliberate ambush murder of US corrections officers at the UN prison compound in Kosovo ?

Associated Press,Reuters,and Agence France Presse all submitted stories describing the incident as a "gunfight" between UN personnel "sparked by a quarrel over the Iraq war."

When the story was printed in my local paper it was buried on an inside page. A follow up this morning was about a paragraph long,said nothing new,and....you guessed it: was buried among the little "filler squibs" newspapers run to fill blank spots.

Why isn't it on Page 1,above the fold ?

My gut feeling is NOBODY WANTS TO EMBARASS THE UN .

Later on today,you can read my account at:

I suggest you access the site,bookmark it,and check it out this afternoon or evening.

See tag-line.

"silent Christians"

THAT is a oxymoron, no such thing, impossible. Someone who has the Spirit of the Living Loving Holy God of this world living in their life - cannot help but speak, and speak boldly - And all God's people said Amen!

[Burkeman1]

Interesting tagline for a conservative. What questions, if any, should have asked by the press at our Presidents last conference?

Do you have any questions for Bush?

[Mo1]

He pretty much nailed that one
