A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention.
Some Soldier’s Mom wrote REMEMBER THAT SGT. MATT MAUPIN REMAINS MISSING IN IRAQ “Sunday will mark the second anniversary of the capture near Baghdad of Army Reserve Sgt. Keith Matthew "Matt" Maupin of Batavia, Ohio, the only U.S. soldier not accounted for in the three years of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
"We can't make them find Matt. But I'm confident that when my son's job is done, he'll be home," he said.”
Clint Taylor at Nail Yale writes The Taliban Anti-Education Campaign “Taliban rockets fell in an Asadabad schoolyard and killed seven boys, injured thirty-four, and blew a teacher's leg off. Taliban spokesman Qari Mohammed Yousaf denied it was the Taliban's work, apparently convincing this Guardian reporter that it was unlikely that the Taliban was behind it, that they didn't fire the rockets, and that they were actually trying to hit the U.S. military base a half mile away with the rockets they didn't fire.”
Kevin Aylward at Wizbang writes DC Restaurant That Caters To Wounded Vets Faces Eviction “Marty O'Brien and Hal Koster, owners of Fran O'Brien's Stadium Steakhouse (just a stone's throw from the White House), have a serious problem. The problem is that they are being evicted from their basement location in the Capitol Hilton, due in no small part to the generosity they have shown to our nations wounded veterans.”
Michael J. Totten writes Back to Iraq Part III - The Kurdish Disaster TURKISH KURDISTAN “Sean and I dragged our sorry, exhausted, and malnourished selves to the car at 6:30 in the morning just a few hours northwest of the Turkish-Iraqi border. For the first time we had a look at our surroundings in daylight.
Turkish Kurdistan is a disaster. It is not where you want to spend your next holiday.
One village after another has been blown completely to rubble.”
A North American Patriot posts I'm Sorry Cindy... “...But when you say crap like this you're not honoring your son. Nope, you're honoring yourself…If it's too much for you to do, maybe you could let Casey's father or siblings make arrangements for the grave marker. All you'd have to do is pony-up the cash to pay for it. And, I'm sure; your handlers could take care of that minor detail for you.”
Atlas Shrugs posts Iran's A Bomb: The Brutal Truth ‘“Iran is not paying attention to what the Security Council said,” John Bolton told The New York Sun. The Islamic Republic's clerics “show why we feel a real sense of urgency,” he added. “Iran has to realize that it is clearly going down the wrong road.”’
Captain Ed writes Arizona Votes For Immigration Enforcement “The Arizona state legislature voted to enact a bill that would require its law-enforcement agencies to arrest illegal immigrants for violating state laws against criminal trespass, a measure that would trump resistance to cooperating with federal agencies in rounding up illegal immigrants. The bill now goes to Democratic governor Janet Napolitano, who has made veto noises on this issue:”
Michelle Malkin writes WHERE IS BILAL HUSSEIN “…One member of the Pulitzer-winning AP team was AP stringer Bilal Hussein. Hussein's photos have raised serious, persistent questions about his relationship with terrorists in Iraq and whether his photos were/are staged in collusion with the enemy. I've learned of an intriguing news development that strengthens those lingering suspicions…”
Sgt Hook writes Would You Know My Name “Having recently learned how to use Movie Maker, I put together this show, inspired by the No Tears in Heaven post…My sincere gratitude to Eric Clapton for the beautiful song, and the U.S. Army for the outstanding photos. Sgt Hook out!”
