BUMP for support of the War for Enduring Freedom against Terrorism.

[Poohbah]

Gotta love the registry on the Huey helicopter--G-BALZ.

[PokeyJoe]

It must be hard to march in those dress shoes. some black, some brown, and an odd pair ..... they look like loafers to me.

I was hoping this was a night aerial photo of Iraq...

"Gotta love the registry on the Huey helicopter--G-BALZ"

LOL. Thanks for pointing that out, Poobah. Thank you, Dio, as always, for the great photo essay. Was that a cheese eating surrender monkey I saw?

I can't believe that the UN inspectors actually visited a military site this week. I also think that UN "missile expert" is nothing more than a liberal mean-faced, clip-haired woman.

Very nice pics, D, thanks! I especially like that picture of Mz3. Looks like two comets colliding to me.

Hamas founder and its spiritual leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin attends a rally in Gaza City on January 13, 2003, in support of 8,000 Palestinians detained by Israel in recent months. Yassin said his group would continue its resistance against Israel regardless of the Israeli elections. Israel's latest crackdown against a Palestinian uprising left at least eight Palestinians dead in a weekend of escalating violence throughout the West Bank and Gaza Strip (news - web sites).

You know what I think? I think we aught to send the like of Martin Sheen and other protestors over to Iraq and let them negotiate peace with Hussein. And, we just sit here and PRAY that some nice, thoughtful Iragi citizen whispers the secret hiding place of the WMD and/or components.

[TomGuy]

"Hey, you got any WMD's in there? No? Ok. Thanks."

[IncPen]

More of the humiliating farce.

It's my hope that on the eve of War Bush presents irrefutable evidence of Iraqi complicity in terror, including on US soil, and reveals the hidden WMD.

From my WWII desk calendar for January 15th:

On this day in 1942, British general Sir Archibald Waverly is moved from India to the Netherlands East Indies. There he will take command of Allied forces whose mission is to hold off the Japanese from the Malay peninsula to Australia.

[Darksheare]

The inspections are a total farce.
Makes me want to puke.
Martin Sheen should be deported to Iraq, where he would be killed as a dissident...

[2oakes]

Separated at birth?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Bump for Enduring Freedom and the upcoming war on Iraq.
(For the record, Martin Sheen can go shove it.)

[dennisw]

An uncanny resemblance!
