Web Reconnaissance for 06/21/2006

A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention.

Expose the Left has Ingraham On Anti-American Organizations, Blame America First Politicians (VIDEO) “Radio talk show Laura Ingraham appeared on FOX News’ The O’Reilly Factor Tuesday night to discuss liberals who have crossed the line and give support to terrorists. They discuss A.N.S.W.E.R, Jimmy Carter, Jack Murtha, Howard Dean and other organizations and people who embolden terrorists.” (read more)

GayPatriotWest writing at Gay Patriot posts Murder & Media Manipulation: Al-Qaeda’s Strategy in Iraq “Since I first learned of the murder of the two U.S. soldiers whose booby-trapped bodies were recovered earlier today, I’ve ben trying to find words to express my outrage at this atrocity. Simply put, it shows the barbarity of our adversary, thugs who use the cloak of a religious ideology to mask their sadism.” (read more)

William Teach at Pirate’s Cove writes Democrats Unhinged “I took a stroll through the Left side of the Internet, and ended up dumpster diving. But, not at the Democratic Underground, oh no. Not Kosbat, not Atrios, AMERICAblog, nor the HuffPuff. Or any of the other usual suspects. Tell you you what. Why not check some of these comments first, then I'll tell you where they came from:” (read more)

Sachi at Big Lizards writes Revenge Killing? Hardly “In the last couple of days, al-Qaeda in Iraq killed one soldier, then kidnapped and killed two others. It's sad but expected: this is a war, and we're fighting terrorists whose interest in killing goes beyond mere revenge or warfare to a bizarre form of ceremonial cleansing and death worship.” (read more)

Blackfive writes Amazing Re-Enlistment “Two stories of commitment in a row. First, Major Walsh (previous post) and now SSG Caldwell. This is pretty damn amazing - file under "Where Do We Find Such Men?" I'll post the whole the story of SSG Caldwell in the Extended Section:” (read more)

Captain Ed writes Now Kerry Irritates Democrats, Too “For a man who wants to capture his party's nomination for President in less than two years, John Kerry has spent more than his fair share of time putting his putative allies on the spot over the Iraq War. After a number of Democrats tried fashioning a non-binding Senate resolution that would eliminate a specific timetable to avoid the charge of a cut-and-run strategy, Kerry undercut them by simply resubmitting his original proposal with a deadline only six months further out than the last:” (read more)

Mohammed at Iraq the Model writes Sir, would you please fill out this form? “Now and after a week since operation forward together was launched in Baghdad let's try to evaluate this operation through the people's reactions and through the authorities' announcements.
First we will see that the operation brought high hopes and was found largely promising by the people of Baghdad as it reflected the level of the government's determination to provide Baghdadis with their number one need, which is security.” (read more)

Homefront6 writes 1LT Watada “I read your letter in the Honolulu Advertiser and, as a military spouse whose husband is set to deploy in the next few weeks to do the job you so conveniently have chosen not to do, I feel it is my duty to point out a few discrepancies in your arguments. I would not want you to go to trial with such a lacking defense. You might find yourself with a one way ticket to uptown Fort Leavenworth and that would be unfortunate.” (READ MORE)

John Hawkins of Right Wing News writes The Daily Kos Reaction To American Soldiers Getting Tortured To Death: "How Quaint." “The left-wing reaction to American soldiers being tortured and murdered? Boiled down to its essence, it's "We deserved it and it's all Bush's fault." Read it yourself. From a recommended diary at the Daily Kos called So our boys were tortured - how quaint, by occams hatchet:” (read more)

Pam of Iraq War Today writes Vengeance “It’s taken me til now to comment on the murder of our Heroes, and I'm entirely sure that this rant isn't going to go down as my best work. Part of the delay involved my work schedule. Part of it was that I just couldn’t put into words what I wanted to say. My feelings have finally coalesced with a sort of pinpoint focus: RAGE.” (READ MORE)

T.F.Boggs writes Media and the Military “Some people chastise me for being too hard on the media when it comes to their reporting on military matters. They say that I am unwarranted in my criticisms and that I should be more careful because I influence hatred of the media in others.” (read more)

Justice Soldier writes Satan’s Son vs. 1,000lbs of American Love “Greetings from the far side of the world! As all of you should know by now, the Jordanian terrorist Abu Musab Al Zarqawi was killed a few days ago; after the Special Forces task force (cannot say their name) hunting him followed his “spiritual adviser” to a safe house just down the road from here.” (read more)

The Huntress writes Boycott "SHOCK" Magazine - REDUX “Update: Not even the media is buying Jack Kliger's pathetic ad hominen attacks on Michael Yon's character and on all of us who are boycotting HFM's piece of trash, "Shock" , as well as the rest of HFM's mags.” (read more)

Blonde Sagacity writes Yes, I'm Beating a Dead Horse... “...Where are the human rights groups now? When they say these soldiers were 'tortured' wouldn't it be nice to use Michael Berg's definition of torture? Wouldn't it ease their parent's pain to hope that maybe Amnesty International was right and torture means they were put in really cold air conditioning, or made to pose naked, or barked at by German Shepherds? I am NOT being facetious. Think about it --when they say these men were tortured you know exactly what that means. Actual, brutal, physically painful torture...as defined by Webster and not Cindy Sheehan and her ilk.” (read more)

Balding Eagle husband of Grey Eagle writes My Opinion: When Our Soldiers Are Murdered “I am outraged. I confess it. Politically correct or not, I have grown weary of throwing our soldiers to the political wolves in order to appease the Iraqi’s and world community. These are the same Iraqi’s who have barbarically slaughtered their own, as well as our soldiers. No, not everyone is an insurgent. But in 24 hours we had 8,000 soldiers, helicopters, aircraft, and unmanned drones searching for the soldiers, and not one Iraqi citizen seemed to know anything that could have possibly preventing their fate.” (read more)

Kender at Stop the ACLU writes Arab-Americans Sue U.S. Over Re-entry Procedures “The ACLU; Enemies of the State? That is the conclusion I draw when the ACLU tries to get our government from performing their most important job, protecting the citizenry.
From the NYT comes this little tidbit about the ACLU once again using activism in the courts to get their way and make us less safe.” (read more)

Trevor at Will to Exist writes Remember and honor, fight with pride, destroy the barbarian death cult “Two young soldiers are gone from us - apparently tortured before they died. Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, 23, of Houston, and Pfc. Thomas L. Tucker, 25, of Madras, Ore. died much too young, but they both knew where they were and at least one of them (and I would assume both), Menchaca, was proud of what he did, according to his cousin Sylvia Grice.” (read more)
