Laz's post caught my eye too:
REMEMBER THE TRADE CENTER!!
AMERICAS WAR ON TERROR Day 53
Were Rolling Now!! Day 27
The news as reported in The Washington Times:
[Note All links go to The Washington Times website.]
1. Secretary Rumsfeld has said American ground force levels will increase.
[Excellent!]
2. The United States has stated it WILL NOT stop military operations for Ramadan.
[Also excellent!!]
( No pause in bombing for Ramadan month )
3. Senior Administration officials know about Pakistan's aid to the Talibums, but chose to praise their support of America's war effort.
[I really hope that's just the public posture. Pakistan's duplicity is too much!]
( White House knows of Pakistan aid to Taliban militia)
4. The FBI warned Kantafordia and seven other western states about possible attacks to landmark targets, especially suspension bridges.
[Ugh.]
(FBI cites threat to coastal bridges )
5. The United States is said to be looking forward to winter in Afgoneistan.
[This probably has to do with our air mobility.]
( U.S. sees winter as advantage)
6. The House passed its version of the Airline Safety Bill - this version keeps security in private hands with Federal oversight. It will have to be reconciled with the Senate version, which Federalizes the entire operation.
[Much better bill than the Senate. Hopefully it will carry the day. Now off to conference it goes.]
( House passes bill on aviation security)
7. Four new mailrooms in Maryland test positive for anthrax - all Federal mailrooms, at the Rockville headquarters of the Food and Drug Administration.
[If it weren't so serious, there's a certain irony to this.]
( Four mailrooms test positive for anthrax )
8. The Postal Service bought 700,000 protective masks to guard their workers against anthrax, but OSHA regulations prevent their use until signficant training is undertaken.
[Utterly amazing. Write your Congresscritters on this one. I am.]
( OSHA halts mask use in Postal Service)
We shall not rest until we have cut a swath 60-miles wide through the entire left - taking all that is before us with us as we go. We shall leave nothing to the enemy that may be of value to him. We shall show him that he may count on nothing and will be able to keep nothing, not his spirit, not his soul, not that upon which he shall feed. We shall not cease until the moment we have rent through their entire land and have arrived at the sea, with our glorious victory upon us.
