“Real Islam a religion of peace and free will, not violence”
By Sadie Polttila
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The United States is a great nation whose foundation rests on the privilege of religious freedom. Islam is a part of that foundation and a religion of peace. What crazy people do in the name or religion, any religion, makes them crazy or uneducated - not religious. For example, all Christians aren’t akin to the Ku Klux Klan, because KKK members are definitely misinformed about Christianity.
Religion gives people moral fiber; strength to move onward and upward. It aids in making logical choices because God’s direction simply can not be illogical or wrong (from a religious perspective). Our own government isn’t free from religion. Remember “In God We Trust”?
Personally, I recommend turning off the TV to stop any “mental conditioning” or “brainwashing.””

Coalition Forces Strike al-Qaida Networks in Iraq
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Sept. 18, 2008 – Coalition forces captured three wanted men and detained nine additional suspected terrorists during operations to disrupt the al-Qaida in Iraq terrorist network yesterday and today, military officials reported.
In Biaj today, about 80 miles southwest of Mosul, coalition forces captured three wanted men believed to be associated with an al-Qaida organization facilitating the entry of foreign terrorists into Iraq.
Two separate operations yesterday and today in the vicinity of Sharqat, about 55 miles south of Mosul, netted three suspects believed to be al-Qaida in Iraq liaisons.
Another operation today in the Sharqat area resulted in three detainees believed to have information about a terrorist who places improvised explosive devices along highways in eastern Iraq.
Four detainees were apprehended during an operation today targeting al-Qaida in Iraq leaders in the Beiji area, 100 miles south of Mosul.
Elsewhere, Multinational Division North soldiers discovered a weapons cache in Iraq’s Salahuddin province Sept. 16. The cache consisted of 320 82 mm mortar rounds, six 120 mm mortar rounds, a 130 mm artillery round, a rocket-propelled grenade launcher, and two 50-pound bags of explosives.

Grandma and I will have to look and find ours first.
Only time the thing is plugged in and accessible is when we’ve got company and the kids want to watch MOVIES. (Got almost every Disney classic ever made, the gkids...even the 15yo...love ‘em.)
