"Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be." - Winston Churc

Nice. And, yes, LET'S ROLL!!!

Bump to #17.

"Today we have done what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong "

"A message to terrorists everywhere. You can run .. but you can't hide" -Ronald Reagan

Good analysis. My impression is that the people in charge of the US right now are smart enough to already be aware of such matters, and are acting accordingly.

Love the look in Blairs eyes. Taliban, we're not kidding.

I'm not familiar with this one ... but is the Daily Telegraph a British tabloid?

For God's sake! The Daily Telegraph is the greatest newspaper in England
(since the Times got taken over by Rupert Murdoch)
and probably the greatest in Europe.

Actually, the Telegraph is a pretty decent newspaper, especially when compared to the usual run of squishy Leftist Ameican papers. It is generally pretty well-informed, well-written, and readable. Not exactly what we would call a tabloid- more like the old Herald Tribune.

During Impeachment, the Telegrapoh was one of the papers I read regularly, just to find out what the U.S. papers were NOT willing to tell us!

"The American people know what the American people see. Don't be so sensitive about it. The United States won't be threatened." -George Bush Sr.

Try to hold it for a minute ... I don't read British papers. Forgive my ignorance and I'll forgive your over-the-top outburst.

I just hope the attack begins right before the showing of The West Wing's episode about the Pentagon and WTC events. It'll knock that exploitative crap off for quite some time.

Re: post 17,
I think the build up is for the US and international stage.
Big boom, pretty fireworks.
The real work will happen as you describe.
Just conjecture on my part, of course, but how else could you 'effectively' get the job done?

[Travis McGee]

I wish I shared your confidence but I don't. Our planners think they are highly createive to come up with the "Green Beret Brass Band" option charging around the Hindu Kush, they are not going to put their assets where they will count: the train platforms and subway stops and bakeries and libraries of Europe, South Asia and so on.

The real enemies are W.O. Gentlemen who enjoy the freedom of travel in the West, incognito, under their business, official and NGO cover. It is time to kill them all, no more free ride, no more Marquis de Queensbury rules, no more taking advantage of lax security and open societies while they plan and assist terrorism. Kill them all.

Make talking to terrorists or dealing with them in any way a fatal illness.

BTW, anyone know where I can get a transcript of Blair's speech before US Congress?

[Travis McGee]

Exactly! Fireworks and viddies for the proles.

Then the real killing in the shadows.

Soon, my friend, soon....FRegards

Well then, Hooray for Blair! (Never thought I'd say that!) Nonetheless...
