Cur-ahee!

These fighters are sons of bitches. From the Times of London:

Dropping from 10,000ft, they glide in order to land unnoticed. The dogs often carry cameras and are trained to attack anyone carrying a weapon.

“Dogs don’t perceive height difference, so that doesn’t worry them. They’re more likely to be bothered by the roar of the [...]

Top Five: WWII Fighters That Are Not The P-51

The Mustang was so undoubtedly the best all-around fighter in World War II that there is virtually no debate on the matter. But the next five? That can be debated. There’s a lot of ways to judge WWII fighters. In this case, I’m going with the “all around” criteria. That means judging the machine’s overall [...]

Al-Qaeda Seven Ain't John Adams

John Adams, American Founder and talented lawyer, represented the British soldiers prosecuted for the “Boston Massacre”. There has been a move — successfully — to get the Obama DOJ to release the names of seven political appointees in the Attorney General’s office who voluntarily represented Gitmo detainees — aka captured member of al-Qaeda.

Best – Tirade – Ever

Had Paddy been hitting the sauce before he flipped out? Wouldn’t be surprised…

Saudia Arabian lawyers - high comedy or extremely dangerous?

The latest from Christopher Hitchens touches on a Saudi Arabian legal firm and its efforts to extort several Danish newspapers for reprinting the infamous Muhammed cartoons from several years ago.

[I]t is my belief that your newspaper’s fulfillment of the above-mentioned conditions would be perceived as a sign of respect and understanding throughout the [...]

We Were Remiss… Sorry Outlaw

March 4 was Hug a GI day — here ya go Outlaw.

Speechless! – Special BS of the Year Edition

In case you missed it, riddle me this:

Now that we’re going to put the Iraq War firmly in the victory column, which it appears we are, guess who gets credit for winning the war?

Outlaw and his comrades who have been putting their asses on the line?

Nope.

George W. Bush, who had the stones to stand behind [...]

McChrystal Upbeat (Relatively)

General Stanley McChrystal,, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, gave a relatively upbeat assessment of our prospects for 2010 in Afghanistan in a recent speech in Turkey. Upbeat compared to his September assessment of a deteriorating situation. From the London Telegraph:

“I still will tell you that I believe the situation in Afghanistan [...]

The True Face Of Evil

From BlackFive

If you ever hear anyone ask why on earth we should be fighting these monsters in Afghanistan, I want you to think of this…

They attached a bomb to my sister Nahida. They tied rectangular pieces to both her arms, and a black strip was wrapped around both her legs.

Then they connected the whole thing. [...]

Saturday Morning Cartoons: The Worst Insurgents Ever

Here’s an example of the sort of opponent that Outlaw and his comrades are facing in Iraq and Afghanistan:

Boys having fun – does it get any better?

Now do you know why you’ll never see a similar video posted over at www.talibanrus.com? There are several reasons.

1) Nobody in the Taliban actually has a sense [...]

The Morons Guide To Winning The War On Terror

David Bellavia strikes again.

Please use the following phrases and facts on as many leaflet drops, posters and/or commercial advertisements as possible…

…Let them know that the United States Military is committed to assuring each individual jihadist that they have the opportunity to go to the afterlife wherever and whenever they desire. They have to call us [...]

And The Problem Here Is???

Age progressed photo of Osama bin Laden and modern day photo of some Spanish idiot

(If you can not tell the difference, you may want to consider Lasik sooner rather than later)

Apparently the best way for a terrorist to sneak into the United States is to disguise himself as Osama [...]

When All You Got Is A Hammer…

…everything looks like a nail. Applying the adage to governance of a nation, when you’re a Democrat, every problem requires more bureaucratic rules and responsibilities. It’s not really a surprise that the President’s solution to fixing what ails homeland security relies, to a large part, on the bureaucratic solution. When your playbook is two pages [...]

New Blog on the Block

If you’ve never read the book “House to House” by David Bellavia, go out buy it and read it right now. Better yet buy two and give one to someone who needs it.

David Bellavia was a SSG in the US Army and served in the second battle of Falluajh during OIF 02, in late [...]

A Better Late Than Never Thanks…

To everyone who sent packages to Operation Secret Santa here at Threedonia.

Nothing to See Here.

Nice job “privacy advocates”. Because we want to respect the privacy of a few Muslims we all get to undergo this. On the upside? Someone at TSA is gonna get to look at your wimmins Abdullah. Chew on that. Thank Gaia that wasn’t a picture of John Napolitano. I [...]

“I don’t want to be sitting on a plane in Detroit … “

” … and wondering if some craphound is going to blow me up.”

Christopher Hitchens and Michael Totten have a long-form discussion about terrorism, Islam and the fate of the Western world. It’s well worth your time.

Airport security rescues America from – Michael Yon

The intrepid and independent war journalist was making his way through Seattle when he got picked up at the airport. From Yon’s Facebook page:

Got arrested at the Seattle airport for refusing to say how much money I make. (The uniformed ones say I was not “arrested”, but they definitely handcuffed me.) Their videos and audios [...]

Whatchu Talkin’ ’bout Cheney!

This New York Post editorial pretty much sums up the Obama approach to terrorism. You see Obama’s tough. Try to blow up a plane and he’ll come out swinging in 4 or 5 days. Criticize him and the fight is on bitch! From the Post (do read the entire thing):

It speaks [...]

Doesn’t al-Qaeda Know That Obama’s Sister Is Half Indonesian?

A couple of days ago I heard a snippet of an interview with then-Senator Obama which took place on New Hampshire Public Radio in November of 2007.  I haven’t been able to locate this particular clip on the net, so here’s a link to the entire interview.

I would have liked to have made a slide [...]

Sometimes You Just Have To Shake Your Head

and ask how did we get here, my God what have (WE) done. At least a thinking person would do that.

This is a must read from The Mudville Gazette

February, 2009: the newly-sworn in President of the United States – who had run on a pledge to “immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq” [...]

Actionable Intelligence

The President knew what? My constituents would like to know the answer.
— Hillary Clinton on the Senate floor, 2003.

Those words were screeched by the former senator—while she brandished a copy of the New York Post bearing the headline, “Bush Knew!”— when it was discovered that the White House had received a [...]

Single Arab Male, looking for good time, with a party in his pants

Instapundit had this bit from the Washington Post that is too good not to share.

The 23-year-old Nigerian man accused of the attempted Christmas Day bombing of an American airliner apparently turned to the Internet for counseling and companionship, writing in an online forum that he was “lonely” and had “never found a true Muslim friend.”

Made [...]

The Wrong Focus

Frisking every passenger doesn’t seem like a viable solution.

Travelers taking international flights to the United States today faced pat-down searches, new limits on carry-on luggage and more thorough screening at airport checkpoints after a Nigerian man who claimed to have ties to Al Qaeda allegedly [allegedly!] tried to bomb a jetliner headed to Detroit.

Federal authorities [...]

Undie-Bomber – what he knows is like dust in the wind

Mark Steyn offers a good explanation for the trouble with unleashing enemy combatants on the legal system – it leaves us more vulnerable to attack.

There’s a difference between an alleged suspect (which is what he is is the President’s fantasy) and an enemy combatant (which is what he is in reality). If this were a [...]

Fruit of the Boom

The above is a photo of the Dec. 25 terrorist’s underwear bomb. It seems to me boxers would hidea bomb better. Pretty soon we’ll all be riding commando in the friendly skies.

It’s the Religion Stupid

We’ve all heard by now of the attempted Christmas Day bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit by a Nigerian Muslim claiming to be acting on behalf of al-Qaeda. What is emerging now is a terrorist who was a child of privilege who does not fit the cultural/ethnic profile. That’s [...]

Who Needs Hollywood?

I listed a “Top 5″ of the decade movie post the other day and I find it sad that there are few good war movies on it much less even made. Besides Taking Chance (on HBO) and Ridley Scott’s Blackhawk Down (7 years after the action it portrays) what other positive portrayals are there [...]

French Praise for American Soldier

Here’s a fascinating article written by a French infantryman in Afghanistan extolling the virtues of his American comrade in arms from a certain well-known Army division. It’s from 2008, but Blackfive just linked to it. Here’s the original article in French… the above is a translation — well worth the read. Here’s [...]

Ollie North on Heroes

This is a little late, it was posted by the NRA for Thanksgiving, but I think you will still appreciate it.

Prepare to Be Pissed

Andrew McCarthy at The Corner has this…. he says someone should “walk the plank”… I’d prefer tarring and feathering. Do not read the link until you take a stiff drink and separate yourself from your breakables…. Here’s a taste:

It’s been brought to my attention by several reliable sources that the Defense Department [...]

Let’s Get Ready to Rumsfeld!

Updated with text from FoxNews

I just heard breaking news on the radio.  So breaking that I can’t find it on CNN, FoxNews or AP’s websites.  I’ll update this with text when it is available.

Donald Rumsfeld is calling President Obama out on statements made in last night’s speech.  Apparently President Obama threw unspecified members of the [...]

Obama bravely faces “enemy;” promises troops, pullout (UPDATED)

Obama promises 30,000 more troops – and he plans on pulling them out by 2012. Having your cake and eating it too? Didn’t watch the speech, I for one was looking forward to Charlie Brown, but chalk up another victory for liberals in the War Against Christmas (that’s a joke by the way).

In his remarks, [...]

Criminal Persecutions (BUMPED)

UPDATED 11/30 by Floyd: The Navy SEALS persecution for punching a high value target may be even darker than previously thought if this post is true

Earlier this week, news broke that three Navy SEALs were charged and may be court-martialed for allegedly punching a prisoner. The prisoner, a high-value target (HVT) was turned [...]

While We Are Worshiping At The Altar Of Celebrity

I think some of you cynical bastards need to take a look at this…

Someone who puts others before self…no PR, no entourage, just him and his band saying thanks.

PC In The Military, Part III

For those of you who were shocked by the COS of the Army’s statement about Major Husan and the loss of our multi-culturalism, we have this doozy of a story courtesy of Uncle Jimbo over at BLACKFIVE

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the [...]

Afghan Whig

Fahim Fazli (left, above) — American actor of Afghan descent — and Hollywood villain in 24, Iron Man, and Eagle Eye, has given up Hollywood for the time being to help out Marines as an Afghan translator. Apparently he and his family fled the Soviet occupation in 1985. ABC News has the story:

Now, [...]

Photos From The Front

From The Denver Post.

Photographer David Guttenfelder has witnessed and documented the changing landscape of Afghanistan. Although mostly embedded with coalition troops, he has also covered the presidential elections, bodybuilders in Kabul, the state of Afghan prisons and daily life in the country. Guttenfelder is the chief Asia photographer for The Associated Press and over the [...]

Cajun Cookin’ — With All the Fixin’s!

Someday we’ll have to have a Glenn Beck open thread because while I am afraid his head is going to explode or — more likely — some Lefty whack job is going to kill him — the stuff he says makes more and more sense. The conventional wisdom on health care, stimulus, cap and [...]

The Art of War

As we know, the President of the United States – Commander-In-Chief of the most powerful nation on earth – has rejected the various strategic options for Afghanistan offered to him by the military professionals he supposedly leads. None of these options were worthy of the genius that this administration has come to stand for in [...]

Another Reason To Watch “Burn Notice”

As if I needed one…

Bruce Campbell and Jeffery Donovan from the USA Network TV show “Burn Notice” recently visited the troops over here in Iraq. Damn shame they didn’t make to where I’m at though.

Pink Is the New Stupid

Code Pink’s website has a letter that you can personalize and send to President Obama.  Here’s a line from it:

The recent shootings at Ft. Hood and the resignation of top Foreign Service officer Matthew Hoh demonstrate how even our military officers are opposed to US strategy in Afghanistan.

Imagine the mindset of a women who can [...]
