I agree completely. This is not the time to play Obama games in the oval office. Our troops are fighting to keep these Muslims out of the US, the liberals want to shove one into the White House.

If true, this is a good start. Now let's get the B-52s warmed up for a couple to 10 rounds of carpet bombing or so.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Nine die in US helicopter attack inside Syria: report
Nine people were killed on Sunday when US helicopters attacked a village inside Syria along its border with Iraq, the private television channel al-Dunia reported on Sunday.

Earlier the official SANA news agency reported the incident without identifying the helicopters.

Al-Dunia said an unknown number of American helicopters attacked the village of Al-Sukkiraya, east of the capital. It did not say when the attack happened.

“Nine people were killed and 14 wounded in the raid, which hit a group of builders while they were working,” the television station said. “All victims were civilians,” it said.

“We are in the process of investigating this,” Sergeant Brooke Murphy, a US military spokesperson, told AFP in Baghdad.

“As somebody aptly said, pray for our troops, if Syria responds this could get ugly.”

I read some articles last week where the Israeli's where making contingency plans should America do the unthinkable and elect Hussein. It was very sad.

Damn, we need a McCain commercial contrasting the speeches by Reagan and Obama, Reagan launches SDI, while Obama will destroy it, on my friend’s site over at War69.com there is a blog post on it, perfect ad waiting to happen.

This is not the time to be cutting the military.

They'd be alive right now had they not been working on the Lord's Day.

Of course tomorrow would have been another day.

Osama would be worth an international ‘incident,’ IMO.

We already got Al Duri. He gave up about three months ago.

Maybe there were rockets being deployed from those “villages.”

Or maybe those “villages” were holding the WMDs that Hussein (Sadam, not Obama) smuggled out of Iraq while he was playing his shell game with stupid liberals.

If this is in the same area where the Israelis hit, then it is possible that some sort of WMD was involved, There was also an accident the Iranians and the Syrians had loading a chemical weapon into a scud a while back.

I’d give my left testicle to know what sort of helos were involved, that info unto itself would tell me what they were looking for....

US helicopters attack border point with Iraq: Syria

The area is near the Iraqi border city of Qaim, which had been a major crossing point for fighters, weapons and money coming into Iraq to fuel the Sunni insurgency.

I guess that will give Obama something to talk about on his TV show.
