A short look at what’s out there that might draw your attention.
Kat in Ga. writes Introducing a True Hero - SFC Norris Galatas “You all may remember about a month or so ago, I flew to Meridian, Mississippi, to visit my friends, Janis & Norris Galatas, and welcome home the 155th BCT of the Mississippi National Guard.
Below is Janis' recounting of Norris' incredible odyssey that began with an unfortunate encounter with an IED... the below accounting was originally posted on www.Missick.com.” (read more)
American Citizen Soldier writes MIND THE GAP “Until years have you spent ‘cross the world from your loved ones, In triple-digit temps short on privacy and bank funds; Unless mags do you load vice mugs before work, Pressed with graver concerns than the Boss is a jerk; Pay heed to the gulf between civvies and warriors, American Citizens; Citizen Soldiers.” (read more)
Pamela aka Atlas of Atlas Shrugs writes Hezbollah in America “The FBI is focusing in on this Hizbollah infiltrated Islamic community. The same Michigan community that looks likely to elect Keith Ellison, CAIR's candidate, former member Nation of Islam, and the first Muslim to ever be elected to the legislature (if he wins which he is poised to do, on the Democratic ticket - of course). The strategy of the Muslim Brotherhood Project.” (read more)
Bandit 36 writes Winning in Iraq Part III - What Is Victory In Iraq? “Allow me to start off this section by saying the following: Victory will not be achieved when we pull Coalition troops from Iraq. Removing troops from Iraq will be a product of victory, not a source of it. So then what is victory? How will we know when we've achieved it? These questions may seem like pipe dreams, and under the tidal wave of negative news, unfortunately many people write them off as such.” (read more)
Captain Ed writes Is This War Bush's Fault? “One of the stranger memes to arise in the last week is the notion that the Hezbollah-Israeli conflict is somehow the fault of George Bush. Howard Kurtz covers this in today's Media Notes, along with links to plenty of people willing to cast blame at the White House. The Post also has a separate report asserting that conservatives have erupted in anger against Bush's foreign policy, asserting that Bush has not taken the fight to America's enemies, or at least not enthusiastically enough, and that this has led Iran and Syria to test our responses via their Hezbollah proxies.” (read more)
Robin of Chickenhawk Express writes Trolls, Trolls and More Trolls “Good Grief - is the moon full? I come home from a long day at work and check my blog messages only to find some filth from a couple of moonbats. I find it ironic that these are the same kind of people gnashing their teeth and rending their garments over President Bush's slip o'the lip. Here's the first one from Mary at Peace Has No Borders in response to my posting about Cindy's little playmate, Geoffrey Millard...” (read more)
Fbl writes A Different Kind of Courage in a Marine “Meet Kris, a U.S. Marine. I met him last March when I was visiting San Diego and asked Soldiers' Angels if there was a hospitalized service member who needed some support. I had thought I'd be meeting a wounded combat vet. I did, but it was a different kind of combat.” (read more)
T.F.Boggs writes Oh So True “This new millennium has been fraught with misrepresentations by the press. Talk to any soldier and you will hear the same. How many countless milblogs and soldiers have told you the truth is not being reported by the MSM? How has the current administration’s support for war been hampered by faulty reporting and blatant disregard for the truth? Why has the media been allowed to run roughshod upon the great Americans who sacrifice so much for our Constitution?” (read more)
Justice Soldier writes Honoring the Fallen “Sergeant Kyle R. Miller died a hero while protecting his country and fighting for freedom on Thursday, June 29, 2006, near Balad, Iraq. Sergeant Kyle R. Miller was a devoted soldier who loved serving his country and did so with great pride. He is remembered by those who knew him for his fun loving personality and always wanting to make people laugh.” (read more)
Charles Bird writing at RedState posts The Way Out of the Israel-Islamist Battle in South Lebanon “I wrote in an earlier comment thread that Israel is doing the work that the Lebanese army should be doing but cannot. The simple answer to ending the current violence between Israel and Hezbollah is to degrade Hezbollah to the point where Israel can hand the keys to the Lebanese army, giving the government full sovereignty over its country. Another Charles Krauthammer agrees with me:” (read more)
Andi of Andi’s World writes U.S. Soldiers Free Kidnapped Journalist “Do you remember Linda Foley? Last year, Foley accused our troops of deliberately targeting journalists. While she felt the sting of the blogosphere, Foley, head of The Newspaper Guild - Communications Workers of America, escaped the fate of Eason Jordan. Last month, Foley called for better protection for journalists in Iraq. I have yet to see a statement from Foley thanking U.S. soldiers for freeing a kidnapped journalist....” (read more)
