Battlefield PC

Remember the White House party crashers? Well, here’s a video that puts a whole new twist on how they should be regarded:

     After 8 years of combat in Afghanistan, American military commanders are suddenly relying on an old and disproved strategy: win the hearts and minds of the people. We are going to do this [...]

Prolonging The Agony

     President Obama’s war speech at West Point is a study in futility. Obama intends to increase American troop strength in Afghanistan by a mere 30,000, and then start bringing them home 18 months later. Setting a timetable for success in military struggle is asking for defeat, especially when limited resources are brought to bear on the enemy. No wonder no [...]

Strike Iran Now

     The New York Times News Service reported Monday that Iran is ignoring “a U.N. demand to cease work on a once-secret nuclear fuel enrichment” facility. Adding insult to injury, Iran declared its intention to build 10 similar plants. Well blow me down. No one should be surprised by this brazen rebuke of the United [...]

Legal Blunder

Pat Buchanan points out the folly of prosecuting war crimes in America’s criminal court system in this WorldNetDaily article titled:
Is America at war, or not?

     “Are we at war – or not?

     For if we are at war, why is Khalid Sheikh Mohammed headed for trial in federal court in the Southern District of New [...]

Willful Blindness

 Lt. Col. Ralph Peters calls a spade a spade in the Fort Hood shooting:

     Four days have passed since Major Nidal Malik Husan murdered 12 fellow soldiers and 1 civilian while wounding 42 more, and still America’s spineless mainstream media refuses to report the killer’s obvious motive. Article after whimpering speculation engages in unnecessary hand wringing. [...]

Obama Speed

The Marines know…

In less than a week, President Obama went from “we shouldn’t meddle” in Iranian affairs to “outrage” over the harsh treatment of protesters. Well, which is it? Of course, focus groups and polling data put the words on Obama’s teleprompter, so watch for him to change positions faster than Anna Nicole Smith. He’s [...]

No Way To Fight A War

The Pentagon has released the findings of “an internal military investigation into a U.S. airstrike in western Afghanistan” that killed a bunch of friendlies, according to McClatchy Newspapers. It seems that when Afghan and U.S. Marines, aided by four F-18s, couldn’t dislodge several hundred Taliban fighters, someone called in “Big Mo,” a B1-B bomber capable [...]

When Waterboarding Was Democratic Policy

In the bad old days, politicians could switch positions on particular issues for reasons of political expediency and rarely pay a price. Nowadays, with everything recorded and chronicled and millions of Americans paying attention via the Internet, flip-floppers are often exposed for the liars they are. Which brings us to Nancy Pelosi and many other Democrats [...]

Obama Blame Game

In his Castro-length speech about what to do with Guantanamo Bay detainees, President Obama was long on blame but short on solutions. Linda Chavez noticed, and her column titled “When In Doubt, Blame Bush” follows:
“Listening to President Obama this week as he tried to defend the decisions he’s made on closing Guantanamo, you have to [...]

Cheney On Terror

Former Vice President Dick Cheney delivered a major address today at the American Enterprise Institute. His remarks offer a counter-balance to President Obama’s extraordinarily sharp attack, also today, on Bush Administration anti-terror policies. Much of the President’s hour-long speech was critical of the creation of the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and the use of enhanced interrogation techniques. Though [...]
