More pointless destruction in a pointless war without purpose, goal or anything that would justify the wanton loss of American lives and the pouring out of American treasure that continues to this day and will continue on into the future until who knows when. “Taliban insurgents set oil tankers ablaze in Afghanistan,” Reuters, July 5, […]
Canada: Accused jihadi says Taliban had right to kill Canadians in Afghanistan
Misbahuddin Ahmed’s statements are yet another indication of the practical consequences of Islam’s claims to constitute a global community (umma), the loyalty to which transcends all other loyalties. Imagine saying “You’ve got to look at it from their perspective.” about the Nazis as the Allied armies entered German territory in 1945. “Taliban had right to […]
Jihadist released in Bergdahl swap had hand in pre-9/11 al-Qaeda plans, killed first U.S. soldier killed in Afghan war
Obama has said that it is contrary to American principles to keep prisoners in Guantanamo indefinitely without charge. Very well. So why wasn’t Mohammad Fazl ever charged for the murder of Mike Spann? Why was he released outright when it is extremely likely that he will rejoin the jihad in Afghanistan and try to murder […]
Hillary Clinton on five free Taliban jihadis: “These five guys are not a threat to the United States”
Past and present Obama Administration officials lie to the American people with such alacrity that it is clear that they’re secure in the knowledge that the mainstream media will cover for them no matter what. No lie is too extreme or outrageous — they know that they will never be genuinely called to account, never […]
Pakistan: More jihad violence near nation’s busiest airport; Taliban vows “full-out war”
The Pakistani Taliban has friends in high places, what with Pakistan’s spy service, the ISI, being implicated in involvement in the Mumbai jihad attack and other jihad plots. That may be one reason why it can act with increasing impunity. And why does it have friends in high places? Because there are people in the […]
Obama’s top intel officers warned that 4 out of the 5 Taliban jihadis swapped for Bergdahl would return to jihad
It was obviously of no importance whatsoever to Barack Obama that these jihad terrorists would return to jihad in Afghanistan and try to kill American troops there. Eli Lake says that the prospect of their killing Bergdahl presented Obama with a “painful dilemma.” It will get more painful once these jihadis murder a few more […]
Kerry calls threats of swapped Taliban prisoners to resume jihad “a lot of baloney”
“No one should doubt the capacity of America to protect Americans,” said Kerry. Oh, really? What about all the many Americans murdered by their Afghan allies over the past few years? What happened to our capacity to protect them? It was sacrificed on the altar of political correctness, specifically to the refusal of our government […]
Robert Spencer at PJ Media: 5 Indications that Bowe Bergdahl Is a Traitor
At PJ Media today I make the case for Bowe Bergdahl to be tried for treason: It is well established now that Bowe Bergdahl, the Army sergeant for whom Barack Obama traded five top Taliban jihad commanders to get him out of captivity in Afghanistan, is a deserter. But there are also numerous indications that […]
Taliban commander: More kidnappings to come after Bergdahl deal
No surprise here. Barack Obama has reinforced an important lesson for the Taliban: kidnap an American, and you have a good chance of winning important concessions from his weak and feckless administration. This will only ensure that there will be more kidnappings. “Taliban Commander: More Kidnappings to Come After Bergdahl Deal,” by Aryn Baker, Time, […]
Taliban commander freed for Bergdahl tells relative he’ll wage jihad against Americans again
This is no surprise, of course. What else would he and the others do? What was done at Guantanamo to disabuse them of their jihadist sentiments and supposed misunderstanding of Islam? Absolutely nothing. Even though these men are universally believed to hold to a twisted, hijacked version of Islam, no effort was made to change […]
