I always feel inadequate when I try to gather as much great information into one post since Dave sets such a high bar on this blog. But, I will try and hope you can suffer through until he returns from his much-deserved vacation.
First, Michelle Malkin has comprehensive coverage of the dogged determination of a few tenancious bloggers to uncover the veracity of claims made by a person who represented himself to The New Republic as a soldier named Scott Thomas. The guy has decided to reveal his identity which has amounted in a sort of feeding frenzy/analysis storm on many military blogs. Michelle's site is aggregating it and providing timely updates.
The Business and Media Institute's research showed up today on a local radio talk show I listen to frequently.

Victor David Hanson offers his latest take on the Middle East.
The exchange between Grim and Harper's continues. If you'll recall, a Mr. Silverstein targeted a hit piece on the Blogger's Roundtables to which Grim responded. Once the ball was returned to his court, Silverstein elected to respond to the reply. Now, Grim offers a measured return volley.
With all the heat in Afghanistan and Iraq of late, it takes a little digging to uncover what is going on in places like Somalia. The Counterterrorism Blog's authors do the digging for us and give us a bleak update.

Jack Army provides some great footage, photos and commentary from his work in Iraq.
Greyhawk's always impressive Dawn Patrol points to an article regarding the pressure the surge is putting on al Qaeda in Iraq.
Andi responds to the characterization of our troops as the "killitary" and our military families as whiny, fat and worthless. The comments section is pretty priceless as well.
Hope that provides you with enough to keep you busy for a bit! Read on!
