I have been saying our politicians are going to lose this for us

From Fox News
WASHINGTON — One of Washington's most prominent conservative lawyers, sent to Iraq to help the fledgling democracy develop its legal and judicial institutions, has charged in a blistering memo to U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker that the State Department and Foreign Service have "brought to Iraq the worst of America — our bureaucrats" and become "an albatross around the neck of the Coalition command."
the rest

Let me be crystal clear on this. Sec. Rice, Amb Crocker you have less than a year to get this fixed. This is your responsibility to ensure that the best and brightest are sent to help develop the peace. If your employees dont want to go fire them and get new ones. Send me send so many others that volunteered to go help.

I ask you that the sacrifice of Coalition soldiers and the people of Iraq be honored by sending the very best and working the very hardest to get this fixed.

Active Jihadi in North Carolina

This person Samir Khan runs himself a website out of North Carolina he actively promotes jihad and his stated purposes is to provide true news and religious guidence. Funny thing is he does not leave my comments up for long as they usually ask questions or make statements contrary to his narrative. While I would like to see his site shutdown I won't go making a big deal about it cause after all this is the United States and we do have freedom of speach. I would invite you to go visit his site offer some comments and see if they stick. I doubt they do for long.

Also please join the good folks over at the Jawa Report as the good doctor and the jawas do a great job of lasering in on foreign jihadi websites that are run in the States which is illegal.

Good night sleep well know that rough men are prepared to do harm to protect you.

Coalition Troops in Iraq Kill 4, Detain Numerous Al Qaeda Agents

I have to admit I like those headlines.

Coalition forces in Iraq killed four suspected al-Qaida agents and detained numerous other suspects Feb. 8 during operations to disrupt terrorist networks in northern and central Iraq, military officials said. In Sharqat, coalition forces captured an alleged al-Qaida senior leader and his deputy. The detainees are linked to local kidnappings and mortar and improvised-explosive-device attacks against coalition and security groups of local citizens. Three more suspects also were detained during the operation. In Mosul, coalition forces detained three suspects during an operation targeting a senior foreign terrorist facilitator. The suspected terrorist is linked to al-Qaida in Iraq operations, including a Jan. 28 attack that resulted in the deaths of five coalition soldiers. Also in Mosul, coalition forces detained two more suspected terrorists while targeting an alleged IED manufacturer involved in attacks against Iraqi and coalition forces. "These operations are another step forward in the campaign to disrupt the al-Qaida networks in northern Iraq," said Army Maj. Winfield Danielson, a Multi-national Force Iraq spokesman. "As terrorists shift their operations to new locations, Iraqi and coalition forces will pursue them, attacking their networks and driving them from their hiding places." In Baqouba, coalition forces killed four suspected al-Qaida terrorists, while another suspected insurgent blew himself up. Coalition troops came upon four terrorists holed up inside a building. The four terrorists refused to surrender, and they were killed by coalition troops. A remaining terrorist inside the building detonated an explosive charge and blew himself up. In Baghdad, coalition forces captured seven suspected al-Qaida operatives. The detainees are linked to al-Qaida in Iraq senior leader Abu Ayyub al-Masri. "Iraqi and coalition forces remain resolved to bring the terrorists to justice, ending their campaign of indiscriminate violence against the Iraqi people," said Army 1st Lt. Michael Street, a Multi-national Force Iraq spokesman. East of Samarra, coalition forces captured three suspected terrorists during an anti-insurgent operation. In operations Feb. 7: Coalition forces killed three suspected al-Qaida terrorists during an operation east of Samarra. Near the Hamrin Mountains, coalition troops detained two suspected al-Qaida agents linked to a terrorist-run prison and training camp in the region. Coalition forces captured a suspected Iranian-trained "special groups" leader and detained three other suspects during operations to disrupt criminal networks in the Mashru area, south of Baghdad. The detainee is linked to Iranian-trained enemy elements in Wasit province. Reports also indicate the detainee was an associate of several senior-level criminal leaders involved in attacks on Iraqi and coalition forces. Iraqi national police disrupted the kidnapping of six members of the Sons of Iraq, a security group composed of concerned local citizens, from a checkpoint in Baghdad's Ur neighborhood and rescued three of its members after a shootout. The kidnappers fled with three victims. Iraqi and coalition forces are on the lookout for the kidnappers and the abducted Iraqis. In Feb. 6 operations, Sons of Iraq members operating near Mushada turned in a weapons cache to coalition forces. The cache contained 67 80 mm projectiles, eight 90 mm projectiles, miscellaneous ordinance, four unfinished IEDs and five homemade rocket launchers. The cache's contents were destroyed. Also Feb. 6, Iraqi police, Sons of Iraq and coalition troops found a 4,400-pound cache of explosives in Salahuddin province during a joint operation. The cache contained 40 bags filled with a mixture of ammonia nitrate and cocoa powder. Each bag weighed about 110 pounds. The mixture is commonly used as a homemade explosive employed by al-Qaida in Iraq. "The Iraqi police and the Sons of Iraq are committed to bringing stability to their country," said Army Lt. Col. William W. Prior, commander of 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment. "They prove this on a daily basis. Today, they were able to make a significant impact in securing their country, their homes and their families."

Justification of Training children jihadis

By the way, for those Muslims who are wondering about the Shari’ ruling of this, there are a few points to know:
a. The children were not fighting in the video. They were merely imitating the Mujaahideen and showing their support.
b. Indeed the children in that video were training for Jihaad, and this is what Islaam tells the parents to do. Training for Jihaad is an ‘Ibaadah (act of worship) and it purifies the soul greatly. So instead of having our children grow up in Kaafir societies as wimps, imitating the corrupt celebrities, and speaking foolishness, we have a better alternative.
c. When Jihaad is fard ‘ayn, the ruling is as follows:
The Maliki Fiqh states,
جاء في حاشية الدسوقي: (ويتعين الجهاد بفجء العدو)، قال الدسوقي: (أي توجه الدفع بفجئ } مفاجأة } على كل أحد وإن امرأة أو عبدا أو صبيا، ويخرجون ولو منعهم الولي والزوج ورب الدين)
In Hashiyat ad Dussuqi it is stated: Jihad becomes Fard Ayn upon a surprise attack by the enemy. Dussuqi said:”Wherever this happens, jihad immediately becomes Fard ‘Ayn upon everybody, even women, slaves and children, and they march out even if their guardians, husbands and creditors forbid them to.” [Hashiyat ad Dussuqi 2/174]

The writer compares fireams safety classes and firearms instruction that occurs in the US to teaching children how to
1. breach houses
2. kidnap people
3. practice their suicide bomb speaches.

Trust me here folks my father,hunters safety instructor, and my Marine shooting instructor did not encourage me to martyr myself.
