“The operation was at this time effectively unknown to President Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett and it remained that way until AFTER it had already been initiated. President Obama was literally pulled from a golf outing and escorted back to the White House to be informed of the mission. Upon his arrival there was a [...]

Bin Ladin is dead. Again. In the last ten years he has been reported “killed” at least four times. The only difference this time was that the President of the United States announced the death of the number one terrorist in the world. Above all, this time he was killed not in Tora Bora, not [...]

There have been a few items in the News recently that really do sound like they are straight from The Onion, but are, in fact, true. Chalk it up to the “truth is stranger than fiction” meme. Hopefully, this will provide a bit of a respite from our undeclared war on Libya, which cost us [...]

And that ain’t Obama. That would be inaccurate, to say the least. Obama wanted to wait for the completion of a study to be conducted on the impact of changing DADT, with a target date of early December. His Justice Department regurgitated assertions used by Colin Powell 16 years ago that Powell says he no [...]

The military policy, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” has been in the news a good bit of late, including a recent story that some Democrats do not want to wait for the study Obama proposed to conclude December 1, conveniently after the election. Well, they might as well stop trying. This story just out (h/t to [...]

In almost every briefing pertaining to South Asia, the U.S. Special Envoy for Afghanistan and Pakistan Ambassador Richard Holbrooke says that he won’t use the ‘K word,’ by which he means Kashmir. This is sensible of him, knowing that any statement could escalate into an exchange of hot words between India and Pakistan (and India [...]

More and more has come out about Nidal Malik Hasan and what appears to be a cold-blooded assassination of 13 people at Fort Hood, 12 military, one civilian, and 28 wounded. The biggest piece of news for me this morning was finding out that Hasan was still alive, and one of the wounded. In addition [...]

Wednesday, October 7, 2009, marks the 8th Anniversary of the US War in Afghanistan.

Hillary Clinton has been working diligently for months to appoint a new administrator of USAID. Now Jill Dougherty of CNN reports that “Secretary of State Hillary Clinton showed a rare flash of frustration Monday: – calling the vetting process for Obama administration nominees “ridiculous” and “a nightmare.” At a question-and-answer session with staff from the [...]

“This Guy” being President Obama, and the ones making excuses for him are people in the LGBT community. In this particular instance, I mean over “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Yes, the Supreme Court has rejected a challenge to “DADT” in the case of Infantryman, and JAG officer, James Pietrangelo II (H/T to Soldier4Hillary for mentioning [...]

As it turns out, the domestic terrorist, Abdulhakim Muhammad, who targeted Army soldiers outside of a recruiting station in Little Rock, Arkansas may not be acting independently after all. This is disturbing, to say the least. Here’s the latest on what has been discovered about him, some more details about Private Long, and a new [...]

(bumped up from afternoon) For today’s A.P. story, “Obama draws praise, but piracy escalation feared,” Larry Johnson was telephoned and interviewed extensively by London-based A.P. reporter Gregory Katz: [...] Some military strategists believe it may ultimately be necessary to attack the pirates’ base in Somalia, much as the British used to do two centuries ago.
