The Big Lie About Iraq I have been writing for months now about the drop off in news from Iraq and how the media presence has diminished considerably since fewer American troops have been killed or injured, which apparently is the only criteria for "news" among many of those covering Iraq and Afghanistan. It was gratifying to see Fox News do a segment this week on Brit Hume's Special Report confirming what I wrote a while back, that the permanent media presence in Iraq has dropped from hundreds back when the Surge was getting underway to a few dozen now. Few of those few dozen media people - aside from Fox - are doing any reporting on American victories though. There was a flurry of activity in Afghanistan after 9 of our troops were killed in a coordinated Taliban attack, which by the way, was hugely unsuccessful with the Taliban forces being wiped out and failing to gain their objective. Unless, once again like Vietnam, the real objective was to throw inordinate numbers of terrorist troops into a suicide mission against American forces so the media would report it as an American "setback" regardless of what really happened on the ground. In the midst of all this non-reporting there was an eruption of coverage over Barack Obama's decision to grace our troops with his presence for a day or two. Well, maybe he didn't really grace them after all, since he ignored most, spent minimal time with those he didn't ignore - and please, don't try to con the American voters into this "Congressional fact-finding" nonsense. When you shoot basketball in front of specially selected troops and then play the video on the news back home as if it really is NEWS, it isn't. It is just a publicity stunt. I can make three-pointers too, by the way. The hoop is outside by my driveway if you want to check it out and make a video. How are Obama's publicity stunts in Afghanistan, which are labeled as Senate "work," any different than his aborted decision to visit wounded troops in Germany, which he claims the Pentagon prohibited him from doing because it wasn't Senate work? Basketball and breakfast with the troops in Afghanistan are "work," but visiting wounded soldiers in Germany is not? Something doesn't smell right here. But then, something hasn't smelled right about this trip from the start. I saw a member of Congress on Fox News' America's Newsroom Friday morning, a Democrat with a long and distinguished military career, splitting hairs on Obama's activities shooting hoops in Afghanistan but not visiting the wounded in Germany claiming there was "a fine line" of difference between the two. No disrespect intended to a fellow veteran but that simply doesn't wash, and sir, if you can take a well-intended constructive assessment of your performance on Fox, the next time a Congressional leader asks you to make an appearance that puts you in a similar position, use your best command demeanor and tell him - or her - to do it because you have more respect for the American voters than that. And as much as I distrust polls as used by the media to tell us how to think, the one valuable piece of information the polls did give us this time is that most Americans aren't fooled by this multi-million taxpayer funded publicity stunt at all. What I believe is the most telling event of the entire trip is Obama's refusal to declare the Surge successful. He wants our troops to vote for him but can't bring himself to admit that he was wrong. What an opportunity Obama and his handlers missed there. If he had merely fessed up and said "I was wrong, you guys were right, and I never should have doubted you. I will never make that mistake again" he at least would have garnered some sympathy among undecideds and maybe picked up a few votes. But what Obama showed is that he is in denial. I don't care if you supported or didn't support the War in Iraq at the outset, the fact is, tens of thousands of terrorists and their top leaders were lured there to fight the jihad against America, and now they are dead. The fact is, as I have written many times before, Abu Al Zarqawi was in Iraq with Saddam Hussein's support and blessing, before the invasion, rebuilding the terrorist network that was destroyed in Afghanistan. Iraq was the intended launching pad for new attacks on the US and Europe, Saddam was up to his teeth in it, and now they all are dead. Iraq may not be a perfect model of anything, but it is on its way to being a stable democracy with considerable support for the US, rather than an unstable hotbed of terrorism. The terrorists are fleeing back to the mountains of Pakistan trying to recreate the Taliban, and it isn't because we dropped the ball there, it is because there is no other safe haven for them in the world. Meanwhile Barack Obama deals with this reality by claiming we don't know what would have happened if we had followed his plan and scurried away instead? Yes we do! Iraq and the entire Middle East would be aflame, new attacks would be launched against us by the tens of thousands of undead terrorists, and we would once again have zero respect on the world stage. That is the true nature of humanity, not the media version where you can talk to rabid dogs and convince them of the error of their ways like some kind of surreal Disney movie. Oh, there was some news in Afghanistan, but you probably didn't see in the states. Consider this report from Reuters which I didn't see in my local papers or on my Internet provider's regularly updated news reports: A senior Taliban commander in southern Afghanistan surrendered to Pakistani authorities and British forces killed another leader, dealing a "shattering blow" to the militant group's leadership, the British army said on Tuesday. (July 22, 2008.) So there you have it. Straight from the front via an incredibly roundabout route. But at least you know it. Could someone pass this on to Barack Obama? Maybe he can reroute the end of his summer vacation tour back to Afghanistan and give an "attaboy" to the men and women there who really are putting in an effort on behalf of freedom and democracy. |

The Real Command Influence
In dismissing the very dubious war crimes charges against Marine LTC Jeffrey Chessani, his trial judge, COL Steven Folsom, said this: "Unlawful command influence is the mortal enemy of military justice," COL Folsom was referring to influence within the Marine Corps command structure, specifically involving two officers of general rank. We should all applaud the colonel’s decision as it would make no sense whatsoever for the Marines to try an officer for failing to investigate crimes that to this point several military courts have failed to establish ever occurred. With one exception, all of the Haditha Marines now have been exonerated. The exception is SSGT Frank Wuterich and if the Marines insist on pursuing his prosecution, they will find themselves in the position of trying to prove homicidal behavior on the part of a non-commissioned officer whose troops apparently killed no one in an unlawful manner according to Marine courts. The only conclusion is that he acted alone, and in the midst of battle, while commanding his troops, somehow single-handedly slaughtered more than twenty innocent Iraqi civilians. Sounds preposterous, right? Well, that’s apparently what the Navy would have us believe. And make no mistake about it, it is the Navy that controls military prosecutions in the Marine Corps, and the Navy appears willing to pursue this prosecution even though SSGT Wuterich’s subordinates and his two superiors who were charged have all been cleared by military courts. That leads us to speculate that either SSGT Wuterich killed those Iraqi civilians all by himself or Navy JAG is desperately in need of at least one face-saving conviction in this Haditha mess. Or is there another reason? Perhaps command influence from a higher level? Most civilians are unaware of the tremendous pressure members of Congress are able to bring to bear on military commanders. If a particular senator or congressman doesn’t happen to be on a committee or subcommittee with direct oversight over military budgets or affairs, you can bet one of his cronies does. This congressional pressure is particularly influential with flag rank Navy officers and generals in the other services because their promotions into these lofty ranks require congressional approval. By now you must have guessed where this is going. Consider…who is the most powerful person in this situation who stands to not only look like the grandstanding, blowhard fool that he is but could perhaps be threatened with defamation lawsuits by the young Marines whose lives he turned into hell by publicly proclaiming them “cold blooded killers.” Ah yes, that would be the reigning Prince of Pork and should-be federal prison inmate, John Murtha. Think about it, with a single conviction of any one of the Marines charged, Murtha can claim vindication and use that conviction as an effective defense against any defamation suits from any of the other defendants. So the question begging to be asked is whether or not this congressman, who was videotaped by the FBI as indicating he is bribable, is pulling strings behind the Navy/Marine Corps command structure to pursue this phony war crimes prosecution to the bitter end. Murtha claims to be an ex-Marine to which I say, you may have worn the uniform, John, but you are sure as hell no Marine. As I have said before, the Marine Corps motto is Semper Fi, always faithful; John Murtha’s motto is Semper I, always him. |

Brace Yourself: Here They Come Again
Hat Tip: Glenn Reynolds While the American people are congratulating themselves for their victory over the Bush-Kennedy-McCain National Suicide Act of 2007, a new and tougher fight is on the horizon. According to The Politico, Harry Reid, along with Mad Jack Murtha and his leader, Nancy Pelosi, plan to set a new deadline for withdrawal from Iraq. They have already concluded that the surge, which went operational only last week, has failed. We have lost the war and have no choice but to bug out and leave Iraq to its fate. The Politico article begins like this:
Nancy's choice of deadline date could not be more appropriate--April Fool's Day. Veterans' groups, loyal military families and others who continue to support the war effort face a daunting task, made harder by the recent defections of important Republican senators and the lamentable loss of prestige incurred by amnesty diehards such as President Bush and Senator McCain. We have to whip up a firestorm of phone calls, e-mails, faxes, and face-to-face encounters with wavering pols. Above all, we will need to counter the Copperhead hordes, who will be out in full cry from now until September. Not a pleasant prospect, now that Summer is here, but it is now or never. |

From a Chaplain in Iraq
"I recently attended a showing of "Superman 3" here at LSA Anaconda. We have a large auditorium we use for movies as well as memorial services and other large gatherings. As is the custom back in the States, we stood and snapped to attention when the National Anthem began before the main feature. All was going as planned until about three-quarters of the way through the National Anthem the music stopped...." Read the rest of this inspiring post.

Petraeus Unleashes the Dogs of War
Yep. Now that the final contingent of the surge is in place as of last week, it seems that Harry Reid was a bit off in his announcement that Gen. Petraeus is "out of touch." Evidently, while awaiting the full buildup, the man in command has been palpating the worst tumors in the patient's belly, and is now going in with axe and hacksaw. The story of the first major offensive of the new campaign is front page, above the fold, in the NYT of Tuesday June 19, 2007. Big stuff. The sequel presents a brief excerpt, but the article must be read in full. It needs no comment here, except to point out that the report is sober and factual. There are no ripe clusters of adjectives such as "misguided, reckless, indiscriminate, appalling" and the like selected from the Gray Lady's thesaurus of condemnation. Is "editorial judgment" no longer an oxymoron? Excerpt follows, with the standard admonition. The report begins as follows:
You already know the admonition: RTWT. Webmaster's note: It looks like John was the victim of a bait 'n' switch at the Times. If you go to the URL he linked and scroll down far enough the text he quoted is still there but it looks like someone decided the original article was far too positive and did a major rewrite. I guess those multiple layers of editors have to justify their existence somehow. |

Victory? What Victory?
The Jewish World Review has picked up the latest issue of Professor Daniel Pipes' newsletter--normally available to subscribers only. Find it here . His column deals with a burning question, namely--
The lead sentence hints strongly that Israel is on its own in confronting the near-term prospect of the Iranian Holocaust Bomb.
If this unnamed administration source is anywhere near the Sec Def or Condi level, it would seem that the primary emphasis has shifted from victory in the Middle East to withdrawal. Has the message to Iran evolved from "Make nice, not nukes" to "Pretty please, just let us go quietly?" Wiser heads than mine are needed to decrypt that sibylline utterance. Even so, it is safe to conclude that the White House appetite for pre-emption has subsided to somewhere below the level of wishful thinking. The main body of the Pipes offering concentrates on summarizing and analyzing a think-piece by a pair of MIT scholars who examine Israel's capabilities in depth. Can the Israelis actually do it? The short answer is "Yes," provided the government can steel themselves to face the kind of outcry that followed their attack on the Osirak reactor. Their argument is well worth reading. At the end, Dr. Pipes speculates on feasibility, and sees a fly in the ointment, a daunting question that planners of such an operation must face and somehow resolve. In the author's words, without serious comment here--
Is he kidding, or what? Your call. |

A Modest Proposal II
The front page of the WaPo for Sunday, 6-3-07, has a story regarding the dismaying increase of killings of Americans in Iraq that has accompanied the recent surge. Aspects of the article are equally applicable to the Afghan theater. It begins like this--
The article correctly points to the armor-piercing weapons known as explosively formed projectiles as a major factor in the new killing spree. As mighrt be expected, there is no mention of Iran, which has been identified as the source of these deadly new IEDs. Let it be known that--in the right circumstances--the MSM can bow to administration policy in the way it presents the news. It would seem that the Department of State has ditched the Bush Doctrine in favor of creating the appearance of reaching out to the main state-sponsors of terrorism, Iran and its lackey, Syria. For the time being, at least, aggressive action to protect the lives of American troops is on the back burner. This has to change, and the current modest proposal is intended to suggest a possible mode of defense, which might be termed "Operation Bellwether." The basic technology of robotically-controlled vehicles is already well developed as, for example, in the popular spectacles called demolition derbys. Why not create robotic unarmored Humvees that could precede military convoys by, say, fifty yards or so? To make them irresistible to the IED crowd, they could have generals' stars painted on the sides, and fly flag-rank pennants on the front fenders. Visible personnel could be realistic rifle-toting dummies. On the other hand, why not dress up prisoners in US Army uniforms, and let them serve as decoys? We have an ample supply of Al-Qaeda types in military detention centers. We hear constantly of how badly mistreated they are. Why not put them out of their misery by letting their comrades dispatch them to Paradise? There is ample precedent for this sort of thing. The Red Army in World War II regularly marched Gulag prisoners through German minefields in front of their armed troops. If that practice ever led to prosecution of Russian officers as war criminals, it is a well-kept secret. Admittedly, prisoners captured in combat are different from common criminals. Questions regarding Geneva Conventions--however irrelevant they may be in the light of the actual status of detainees--are sure to arise if the details became known. Strict secrecy would have to be maintained. Operation Bellwether would be a natural for detachments of Special Forces, who are not renowned for blabbing to reporters. The story merits careful reading. It ends with a quotation from a British expert on Iraq, Toby Dodge:
Wouldn't it be nice if these officials and analysts were less resigned to the prospect of losing lots of lives, and more disposed towards the "creative destruction" for which the capitalist world is justly famous? |

In an unprecedented move....
....Sunnis and Sadrists in Iraq have signed a joint agreement to fight Al Qaeda in Iraq and have demanded that the Iraqi government put the interests of the nation first in their considerations.
Al Qaeda in Iraq has overplayed its hand. The indiscriminate slaughter of men, women and children has alienated the Iraqis, who thought that Al Qaeda would help them expel the infidels. Instead they have brought untold misery on the civilian population, because many of the adherents of Al Qaeda could care less about Islam. They are pure thugs, asocial criminals who enjoy torturing and slaughtering without regard to who the victims are. Will the American media cover this? If they do not, what does that say about them?

This report should be broadcast....
....on every TV channel in America.
Sunnis everywhere are deciding that Al Qaeda has worn out its welcome.
They don't see America as their saviors — just as their best hope for success.
Meanwhile the Democrats are working overtime trying to find a way to get us out of Iraq. Not only is that insane, it's foolhardy in the face of what's happening now in Iraq. Read the rest at Media Lies. |

Republicans for Bugout
The NYT of Thursday, May 10 ran a story by Carl Hulse and Jeff Zeleny entitled "G.O.P. Moderates Warn Bush Iraq Must Show Gains ." The lead paragraphs tell the sad tale --
The eleven participants included Rep. John Boehner, the House Minority Leader, who came along as an observer. Prominent among the other six named in the article were three who joined Democrats to vote in favor of the infamous H. Con. Res. 63 [February 16, 2007], expressing disapproval of the Bush-Petraeus surge policy. Just for the record, those three were Tom Davis [VA], Mark Kirk [IL], and James T. Walsh [NY]. The reporters tell us that Tom Davis distinguished himself by informing President Bush that his approval rating had fallen to 5% in one section of his district, the Virginia 11th, a D.C. bedroom community. Would that section perchance be inhabited by swarms of government drones and paid-up members of the AFSCME? (Sheer invidious speculation, that.--Ed.) The reporters also note that three of the seven named refused to be interviewed after the meeting. The silent three--consigned to historical oblivion along with the anonymous four--included Mark Kirk, plus Jo Ann Emerson of Missouri and Ray Lahood of Illinois. What's the problem, valiant tribunes of the people? Don't you want the folks at home to know how you stood up to Bush? This story provides little to cheer supporters of the war on jihad. At best, one can smile wanly at the thought that three of the eleven--being notorious doves--are atypical of the Republican party, and four others were so obscure as to be deemed unworthy of mention by the Newspaper of Record. The tenor of the meeting, on the White House side, conformed to the Beltway consensus that the coming summer is make-or-break time. Secretary of Defense Gates made that quite clear--
Message: If things go well by September, we may get really serious about winning and send another 10 brigades. If not, we'll begin to extricate. To venture a prophecy: it is now carved in granite that the Sunni insurgents and Al-Q in Iraq will treat us in late summer to a spectacular display of fireworks, slaughtering Iraqis by the hundreds. The moving finger writes... Webmaster's note: I have some related links, and will be adding more soon, in my 2007.05.10 Dem Perfidy // Islamism Delenda Est Roundup. |

No soldier deserves to come back from a war to be told "Oh, never mind, it wasn't important. Thanks for your time anyway. Sorry your friends died for nothing." No Gold Star parent needs to be told "Never mind. It wasn't important to begin with. Sorry about that."

Joe Katzman has an excellent related post here. Bottom line: Replacing HMMWVs with MRAP's saves American lives. The Army and Marines are waiting for money to replace a bunch of 'em. They don't have it yet because the Surrendercrats are playing political games instead of taking care of the troops. It is my fervent and heartfelt hope that when the jihadis finally manage to nuke DC Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Mad Jack Murtha are just far enough from Ground Zero to see the flash and have a split second to realize what happened before the shock front arrives and liquefies their bodies. Catching the three of them somewhere on the left coast for a moonbat convention would be even better, of course. Update after a night's sleep and some time to surf the web a little: I don't really want the Three Ratateers to die in the initial blast. I'd much prefer they die slow lingering deaths trapped in the rubble, preferably under the same rubble pile so they have time to congratulate each other on how well they managed the war. (No, Bill isn't "off his meds again." I'm not wishing any worse fate for the Ratateers than will be suffered by thousands of others if they succeed in implementing their proposed policies.)

You have two choices. You can take the media's....
....word for what's going on in Iraq, or you can listen to Gen. Petreaus reporting on developments in Iraq. The Democrats have chosen the former. It wouldn't hurt to read Steve Schippert's report on Iraq as well. Steve is a military expert with extensive contacts in the area and an astute understanding of the cultures and religions of Iraq. |
