"Karzai takes hard line on U.S. troops"
By Daniel Cooney
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "KABUL, Afghanistan -- Afghan President Hamid Karzai, hours before flying to Washington for talks with President Bush, yesterday demanded greater control over U.S. military operations in his country and called for vigorous punishment of any U.S. troops who mistreat prisoners.
He also said he wants the United States to hand over all Afghan prisoners still in U.S. custody.
In a volatile southern province, meanwhile, a U.S. soldier was killed and three were wounded in the latest in a string of attacks launched by loyalists of the ousted Taliban regime. "

"IDF on High Alert After Hezbollah Attack"
Arutz Sheva Israel Broadcasting Network ^ | May 22nd, 2005 / 13 Iyar 5765
Posted on 05/22/2005 12:34:54 AM PDT by M. Espinola
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Israeli military officials said Hezbollah sends Arab shepherds into Israel as a provocation "in order to escalate the border conflict." Soldiers shot over the head of the shepherd as a warning not to advance through the highly sensitive security zone, and Hezbollah responded around 2 p.m. by launching eight mortar shells, six of which fell near the Gladiola military outpost. The Air Force immediately sent helicopter gun ships to patrol the area from the air, and artillery units fired at Hezbollah positions."

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "WASHINGTON Eight members of the House of Representatives, led by Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., and chairman of the House Immigration Reform Committee, are calling for the resignation of a Border Patrol official in Arizona who is alleged to have told his agents to stand down following the Minuteman Project vigil in April so that an increase in apprehensions of illegal aliens would not give the citizen group bragging rights.
The focus of attention is Michael Nicely, agent-in-charge of the Tucson Sector of the Border Patrol. He is accused by a dozen of his agents of ordering them to be less than aggressive in arrests beginning in early May.
Eight members of the House signed a letter written by Tancredo to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff calling for
Nicely's resignation. A total of 10 members signed a separate letter by Tancredo calling for the House Judiciary Committee to initiate an investigation into the "stand down" orders."

Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day 2005 Message From the Secretary of Defense
I am pleased to join millions of Americans in honoring the brave men and women in uniform -- those who serve today, those who have fallen in battle, and those veterans who proudly served in the past.
My father volunteered to serve in the Navy after the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. Millions enlisted to battle against the tide of tyranny then threatening the world. And I was privileged to serve in the Navy some 50 years ago. Now, more than 50 years later, I count my time in uniform as a most important period in my life. Thousands, if not millions, of others who have served undoubtedly feel the same way.
Military service has always been one of our country's most noble callings. America has long been the defender of liberty -- the country that has stepped forward to defend those who could not defend themselves. This was true from our country's early days at Lexington and Concord, where the earliest citizen soldiers defended their farms and homes, their new country, and the cause of freedom.
In the years that followed, the U.S. armed forces have become freedom's champion -- at Gettysburg; in the forest of the Argonne; on the beaches of Normandy and Iwo Jima; in the air during the Berlin blockade; and today in places like Kabul and Baghdad.
This new war we face has required our military to adapt its thinking, and challenged us to prepare in new ways. Yet whatever the mission, whatever the challenge that lies before us, each of you who are serving our country are confronting it with grit and courage. I thank each of you and your families for your service to our country.
When my father passed away some 30 years ago, I found a letter in his papers that he had received from then secretary of the Navy, James Forrestal -- who later became the first secretary of defense. Secretary Forrestal apparently sent this letter to all those who served to arrive after they had returned to civilian life. Noting the historic achievements made by the U.S. military, he wrote: "You have served in the greatest Navy in the world. ... It crushed two enemy fleets at once, receiving their surrenders only four months apart. It brought our land-based air power within bombing range of the enemy and set our ground armies on the beachheads of final victory. ... For your part in these achievements you deserve to be proud as long as you live. The nation you served at a time of crisis will remember you with gratitude."
That letter to my father now hangs on my office wall in the Pentagon. It is a reminder to me of our country's fighting spirit. And I see that same spirit in the actions of the men and women in uniform every day. It is that spirit that we honor on this holiday: the selfless duty and devotion passed down from generations who served before, and the courage of those who sacrificed their lives in service to our country.
Our country is proud of every member of our armed forces -- volunteers all -- and we are deeply grateful to those who have sacrificed for the cause of liberty. May God bless each of you, may God bless your families, and may God bless our wonderful country.

Moslems Try to Attack Laura Bush on Temple Mount
Arutz 7 ^ | May 22, 2005
Posted on 05/22/2005 10:45:11 AM EDT by Alouette
Security guards this afternoon prevented angry Moslems from attacking Laura Bush as she tried to enter the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount. Television reporters said the Arabs almost reached Laura Bush before bodyguards repelled them. One Arab boy ran towards the president's wife but fled after a policeman shot over his head.

"First Lady Visits Israel"
Sunday, May 22, 2005
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "JERUSALEM
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Dozens of protesters stood nearby, shouting, "Free Pollard now." Jonathan Pollard, an American Jew who is serving life sentence in a U.S. prison for spying for Israel, was a civilian intelligence analyst for the U.S. Navy.
The first lady was mobbed by protesters and local reporters, and Secret Service agents and Israeli police had to physically hold back the crowd as she approached the wall.
She then went to the Dome of the Rock, a mosque on a hilltop compound known to Muslims as Haram as-Sharif and to Jews as Temple Mount. As she left the mosque, one heckler yelled, "How dare you come in here?" and "Why do you hassle our Muslims?"
Mrs. Bush removed her shoes as she entered the mosque and walked barefoot on the red carpet. She held a black scarf tightly around her head as she gazed up at the gilded dome and the colorful mosaics on the marble walls.
Some of the women studying inside the mosque were clearly annoyed at the intrusion and waved their fingers at the U.S. entourage. Despite the chaos at both sites, Mrs. Bush kept smiling and said little.""
What on earth was the White House thinking when they let Laura go over there?b
OPINION...Sometimes people don't really understand the Middle East situation. Political correctness gives one the mentality to ignore real concerns and difficult facts of life.
I do appreciate Mrs. Bush heartfelt concern regarding human rights, women's rights and literacy.
Her timing for this Middle East tour seems to be off the mark.
That's my opinion.
