As reported in two different blogs now there has been 500 munitions filled with mustard agent. This is nasty stuff folks... but oh wait, we just went in because of OIL right?

I am still searching/waiting for confirmed links to sources on this. H/T to: Pajama's Media and Iowa Voice, great job folks! More to come on this I am sure.

UPDATE*******UPDATE*******

As CarpiJugulum related in the comments, there are now documents released. I looked over at Fox this morning and they have this reported as well. You can see the PDF file of the faxed documents to the House of Representitives. What will the wussy leftists say to this now? Is it still a war for oil, is it still illegal, or are we just enforcing the world's will (referring to the UN sanctions) and helping to build a free nation through our support? The worst part about this report is there some definite possibilities that many of said weapons have traveled outside of the country. In an essay written over at Frontpage (IT IS A "MUST READ) they have traced some strong ties to Russia helping in this dispersal of weapons. Do you still think they are our allies? The average Joe may be, but certainly not the government!

Iraq's coalition government claims that it has uncovered documentary proof that Mohammed Atta, the al-Qaeda mastermind of the September 11 attacks against the US, was trained in Baghdad by Abu Nidal, the notorious Palestinian terrorist.

Details of Atta's visit to the Iraqi capital in the summer of 2001, just weeks before he launched the most devastating terrorist attack in US history, are contained in a top secret memo written to Saddam Hussein, the then Iraqi president, by Tahir Jalil Habbush al-Tikriti, the former head of the Iraqi Intelligence Service.

The handwritten memo, a copy of which has been obtained exclusively by the Telegraph, is dated July 1, 2001 and provides a short resume of a three-day "work programme" Atta had undertaken at Abu Nidal's base in Baghdad.

I can hear the nay sayers now. It's a fake, it's false, blah blah blah.... My answer to the doubters is simple. Why is it that there is more and more evidence showing up that proves Saddam had his hands in 9-11 and terrorist organizations directly involved with KILLING INNOCENT Americans and other people from nations all over the world?

Today as I am traveling about aimlessly in my foggy state attempting to rouse my mental capacities to study my lessons for the upcoming classes tomorrow, I came about on a wonderful item from Just citizens.

In this blog entry they discuss the new book by Ann Coulter. Mind you the writer of this referenced blog is not a fan of her style, but does point out some noteworthy facts about some elected officials.

I implore you to go read it. Whether you are liberal or conservative, the fact remains that the government (the elected officials) are using its influence to attempt a ban on material they deem is harmful. Hey What happened to freedom of speech and the individual's own choice? ( A gracious bow to) JUST CITIZENS. Not your Father's Political Party.: Let the book burnings commence!

Next on my list deals with Gitmo. Now being prior service and completely supportive of those fighting against the fiendish cancer named Islam, you can pretty much tell where I stand on the Gitmo issue. This proclaimed, I am also aware that many people have written to the government about the conditions there and also wishing for its closure.

 While skimming (H/T) Islamic Evil this morning I caught this wonderful little link.

Enjoy the link, nothing like a little satire after a heavy post.

With my innards stretched taught with the flesh of a tasty critter that is now resting solemnly in my gullet, I scurried hither and nether looking for some more suculent morsels to place here today. I took another jaunt to Just citizens  to read what they had replied to me and found a link to Q&O. At Q&O (H/T) the discussion is ongoing about the news report found in the Washington Post. The inflammatory clause for such a discussion is:

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki on Wednesday proposed a limited amnesty to help end the Sunni Arab insurgency as part of a national reconciliation plan that Maliki said would be released within days. The plan is likely to include pardons for those who had attacked only U.S. troops, a top adviser said. Maliki's declaration of openness to talks with some members of Sunni armed factions, and the prospect of pardons, are concessions that previous, interim governments had avoided. The statements marked the first time a leader from Iraq's governing Shiite religious parties has publicly embraced national reconciliation, welcomed dialogue with armed groups and proposed a limited amnesty.

An interesting thought to ponder exactly what this could mean. Think about this for a second, is this meaning the Iraq is just thumbing their collective noses at the US, or are they actually taking more control over their own land, and more importantly their future how they see fit? Is this not what the US strategy has been, for them to be able to do this? I think this is exactly what it has been. Do the Iraqis actually intend for us to look at them like they are showing their bumms to us. No.

My take on this is similar to what McQ's is over at Q&O. That is that the infantile Iraqi government is attempting to mend fences between its diverse sects in an act of unity for the wellbeing of the country's future. After all (H/T to Q&O), one needs only to look at CNN's report dated June 14 to see that the new government is taking matters into its own hands, and seriously I might add. The coalition forces are now playing an ever shrinking role in operations now. Look at the numbers in the report.

Iraqi troops Wednesday uncovered a kidnapping ring, seized weapons -- including three rockets -- and defused two roadside bombs after beginning a security clampdown on the often lawless streets of Baghdad. [snip] Four insurgents were detained at one checkpoint after three people emerged from a car "screaming for help," said Maj. Gen. William Caldwell, a U.S. military spokesman in Baghdad. "We found eight people that had been kidnapped now for four days that we were able to return back under control of the Iraqi government," Caldwell said. "They worked for an electrical company down south of Baghdad." [snip] Hours after the operation began, President Bush said at a news conference in Washington that 26,000 Iraqi troops and 23,000 Iraqi police will be backed by about 7,200 U.S.-led coalition troops.

Now doesn't this paint a little different picture? Now you take into account that President Bush and Maliki both met face to face in an unprecedented surprise visit, and one can see a little better that the progress in Iraq's struggle for independence is happening. It looks to me like they are starting to Kick A's and take names. Way to go!

Now does this concern me about the statement in regards to the US troops? Yes it does, but looking a little deeper I see that as just fluff words to ease the tension. Typical diplomacy in tense times. Isn't it our goal to have victory in Iraq? Of course, and I see these recent events as a positive move towards the goal.

Ali is compelling. But if her fervour is her strength, it is also her weakness, alienating the very liberals she should court. Throughout our afternoon together, she brands those who fail to stand up to “the historical mistake of radical Islam” as “the appeasers”. And she uses “appeasers” pointedly. When she was forced to leave her flat, she reflected: “My neighbours confirm the critical view that very few Dutch were brave enough to stand up to the Nazis.” True, perhaps, but not a way to win friends. She is surely right that “appeasers” so fear being called “racist” they would rather let Muslim women in Europe live in submission. But the modern-day Nazis are not just the Islamo-fascists. There are plenty of whites keen to attack innocent Muslims. And the “appeasers” would claim these are the people they are trying to protect. Still, if Europe is no longer big enough for Ali, we are all in trouble. It is sad that the home of the Enlightenment can no longer cope with her right to free speech.

In short, be liberal and all touchy feely types and get attacked. Be conservative and fight those that wish you and yours harm. To think this comes from someone that is fairly liberal and a former Muslim to boot. To refresh your memory, the name, Theo Van Gogh. The film director that had a knife plunged through his heart with a note attached by an adoring muslim fan. That note was also addressed to the above mentioned Lass. Now this obviously, somewhat informed lady makes a valid point ... those politically correct folks are just too leery of speaking out against this evil we face ... are afraid of being labeled a racist... and the name of the ultimate evil we face as a civilization is....... In regards to the national security and having wide-open, and uncontrolled borders; combined with lax INS officials, opens the flood gates for one major enemy to the US..... ISLAM.

My friendly readers you may be questioning as to why I lay this information out to you; yet have not really discussed how this all ties together. Good question. I pose to you this question ... Have you ever thought about the threats coming from Central and South America in the form of Islamic Terrorism? If you have not then perhaps you should.

Many people take for granted Latin America. Many view it as just some third world dung heap with a few rabble rousers. Well have you forgotten when Argentina had its own terrorist attacks? Perhaps you have not heard of them. Here is the information on them now.

March 17, 1992, the Israeli Embassy, Catholic Church and a nearby School....All destroyed. This day the victims of said blast were: 29 dead, 242 wounded, mostly natives. To this day it is the deadliest attack on any Israeli mission of diplomacy. July 18, 1994, AMIA building (Argentine Israelite Mutual Association) a seven story structure reduced to rubble in seconds. The same type of bomb that Timothy McVey used in Oklahoma City.

Many people are under the impression that it is soley the United States and other western countries that involved with the current military actions in A-stan and Iraq as being the reason for terrorism. Well then tell me, what had Argentina done to have such horror brought upon it? The answer: NOTHING. It is simply because of the radicals in the religion/cult of Islam itself that provoked the attack. You may be interested in knowing whom to blame for such a deed. His name: Imad Mugniyeh. You may remember him from more well known works as:Mugniyeh is said to have been responsible for the deaths of more Americans than any living person prior to al-Qa'ida's attack on the US on September 11, 2001. His operatives bombed the US embassy in Beirut in 1983, killing 63 people. Six months later, he directed a suicide bombing of a Marine Corps barracks in Beirut that killed 241 Americans. He is also held responsible for the torture killing of a CIA station chief in Lebanon as well as the bombing of the Israeli embassy and a Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires in the 1990s, successful attacks that took scores of lives and established his reputation as a formidable terrorist capable of executing attacks outside the Arab world.

Here you can look upon the face of death. As you can see this man has quite the career in mayhem and generalized destruction of civilization. He is wanted in several countries for his deeds, but you may wonder what his tie is to Latin America. Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay. This is the common factor for this man in said region. It is the tri-country border area where there is almost non-existent, to impotent as best law enforcement/security. A region dominated by crime, mafias, drug cartels, and yes Islamic fanatics. La Cuidad Del Este (The City of The East) is the most proffitable place for such plagues of humanity to thrive. In this area you are able to find a wide array of social cancers such as: FARC (a Colombian drug terrorist group), Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, and numerous other local criminal organizations. Ok, you know who is there, and that this city lay next to the tri-country border, but what is this area like in terms layout? This area is a dense jungle. A beautiful place to visit, but only with a guide to the typical tourist attractions, like the waterfalls at Iguazu. The New Yorker published a good article that will give you some more insight into the situation. In it, it states:

The sidewalks are dense with stands selling sunglasses and perfume, and with tables of pornographic videos. Marijuana is sold openly; so are pirated CDs. The music of Eminem came from one shop; from another, there were sounds familiar to me from South Lebanon and the Bekaa Valley—martial Hezbollah music. I bought a cassette recording of the speeches of Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's leader.

[snip]

Like Hezbollah, Al Qaeda does considerable fund-raising in Ciudad del Este, investigators told me, and they named the Al Qaeda point men as Ali Nizar Dahroug and his uncle. Ali Dahroug is in jail in Ciudad del Este awaiting trial on tax-evasion charges; his uncle is a fugitive.

I suggest you read the entire article. A CNN article tell its readers much of the same thing. In fact, contrary to popular belief, the Latin American community is actively fighting against terrorism alongside the US and the rest of the civilized world.

"We had intelligence that pointed to increased terrorist activity," said Miguel Toma, who runs SIDE, the Argentine equivalent of the U.S. CIA. "It is not unrealistic that there could be some action to prevent or to react to an attack on Iraq. So we need to react because of the global conflict." Other indications of the threat came from intelligence sources in the Middle East, who told CNN of a new terrorist effort aimed at U.S. and Israeli interests and coordinated by a man named Imad Mugniyeh. The sources say Mugniyeh -- working from his bases in Iran and Hezbollah-controlled areas of Lebanon -- is directing the activities of terrorists in South America, planning to hit U.S. and Israeli targets if the United States attacks Iraq, or if Israel is drawn into the conflict.

Notice that this article is dated 2002. Never the less, this still proves to true today. This shows that there terrorist cells here in Latin America. Yet our governing officials do not pay any mind to this. They feel that an "open borders amnesty" immigration policy is the way to go. They are failing the US and the rest of the free world (being as we are the leaders of such) in this duty. It is not racist to look after ones own home. They are not doing this and putting everyone at risk in the mean time. Do we want to be as the British are, looking like idiots with immigrants seeking amnesty (asylum) only to find out they are terror suspects. Hmm I don't want to be. More than 230 terror suspects free to stay in Britain

To read more on these issues follow the links.

3. Haaretz Iran's involvement to the bombings in Buenos Aires

4. The Australian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad meets with Imad Mugniyeh

5. Australia/Israel Review More Iranian ties to Imad Mugniyeh

As You can see our borders are wide open, and there are strong connections to terrorists. The question now is.... Do you feel any safer today knowing this and what our government is doing (or the lack there of) with the immigration issue?

Have a good day.

He is after all, a wanted man in several countires.

 Back to the tri-border area. People wonder why this is such a hot spot. Well for one reason is that it is nothing more than a dense jungle. A beautiful place to visit, but only with a guide and to the typical spots, such the waterfalls at Iguazu. The New Yorker published a good article that will give you some more insight into the situation. In it, it states: "The sidewalks are dense with stands selling sunglasses and perfume, and with tables of pornographic videos. Marijuana is sold openly; so are pirated CDs. The music of Eminem came from one shop; from another, there were sounds familiar to me from South Lebanon and the Bekaa Valley—martial Hezbollah music. I bought a cassette recording of the speeches of Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's leader." and "Like Hezbollah, Al Qaeda does considerable fund-raising in Ciudad del Este, investigators told me, and they named the Al Qaeda point men as Ali Nizar Dahroug and his uncle. Ali Dahroug is in jail in Ciudad del Este awaiting trial on tax-evasion charges; his uncle is a fugitive." I suggest you read the entire article.

You may wonder why I say these things, and why they are important to the US, much less even the world. Well these terrorist not only trade with the drug cartels, like FARC in columbia, but there has been some documented movement of such people over the Mexican/American border as well. Do a search on Latin American Islam and immigration.

With Hezbollah so active in the region, and of course Iran being one of its closest financial partners, is it no wonder that Iran was and still is implicated in the terrorist's attacks in Buenos Aires? Read here for more. Frontpage magazine has an indepth article about the threats from and in latin America. I suggest you take some time to read it. With a somewhat related topic, some ties to hamas can be found in this work by John Cassady. Yet it seems to me that many do not see, or perhaps they wish not to see the tracks back to Iran from these attacks. You can see more here, and here.

I wonder what the invited muslim leaders to the "official Washington" croud say about these violent actions done in the name of Islam. Well in public, they of course say "bad boys, we are completely against terrorism", but behind closed doors it is a much different story. In the immortal words of Paul Harvey: "Here's The Rest of The Story".

So its up to you, what are you going to do about it, I have provided you with the information, now mull it over and think twice before you hear of someone saying that we need to give the "undocumented" a break. Or you hear one of those lovely Imams saying they are against terrorism, or that it is just the US and Europe and those other places and not Latin America that has a problem. We all have a common enemy here, and it is evil. Use your head you can see it, and then stand up and fight against it in whatever means that you have. I have also shown you a direct tie to Iran and its subverssive  ways and threats to the world's security, even prior to the nuclear debate currently going on. Use this post as a dire warning, for your time to feel the hate of islam is soon.

How $45m secretly bought freedom of foreign hostages

By Daniel McGrory

Documents seen by The Times show three countries paid ransoms in spite of denying it in public.

France, Italy and Germany sanctioned the payment of $45 million in deals to free nine hostages abducted in Iraq, according to documents seen by The Times. All three governments have publicly denied paying ransom money. But according to the documents, held by security officials in Baghdad who have played a crucial role in hostage negotiations, sums from $2.5 million to $10 million per person have been paid over the past 21 months. Among those said to have received cash ransoms was the gang responsible for seizing British hostages including Kenneth Bigley, the murdered Liverpool engineer

http://www.eldiariodeparana.com.ar/textocomp.asp?id=95388

For my Spanish readers.

París, Berlín y Roma habrían pagado rescates en Irak

El total del dinero abonado ascendería a 45 millones de dólares. En las cancillerías occidentales todos estarían al tanto de los pagos por ser los representantes diplomáticos los encargados de entregar la plata. Francia, Alemania e Italia, sin embargo, desmintieron la versión.

Read the full stories at the links. Now I wonder... just what do terrorists do with the money they have?  Well here is one example.

'Arafat used aid to buy weapons'

Yet there are those individuals that harp about how the US and other nations have DECREASED the aid to such countries like this. After all one can not reward poor behavior, for if one does, it only BREEDS the rewarded behavior. Lesson here.... NEVER.... NEVER. Negotiate with bullies. These bullies are simply terrorists.

In another related story about terrorist activity, we must give a huge applause to the Israelis for the capture of the muderous thug from Hamas.

Capturan al líder del grupo terrorista Hamas en Cisjordania

Good going fellas!

Now for some other reporting of Latin America/Middle East ties. Our good pal, the price gouger of OPEC, Hugo Chávez is now openly supporting the Irani nuclear program, also he is going to sell the fighter planes to iran.

La radio estatal iraní informó que Ahmadineyad y Chávez mantuvieron anoche una conversación telefónica en la que el mandatario iraní agradeció al presidente de Venezuela el apoyo de Caracas respecto al contencioso nuclear iraní.

So tell me, why wouldn't the president and other media sources have this thought, "oh he and everyone he deals with is nasty".

      I shall put forth my deepest apologies now if this... or any other images that shall be seen here today are offensive in any way shape or form to anyone, anyplace, and of any race, religion, nationality... ect... Please Do not hold any country, or organization etc.... responsible for these pictures... Please do not go and make desrtuctive riots and damage personal and public property during your outrage, and please I beg of you... do not murder or maim any that may be within your sight whilst in an outrage due to my portrayal of you. I mean.... after all..... Poo Happens...

 It is a very good thing I do not live in Iran under these fellows.

Otherwise it would be a public hanging for me.... or thrashing.... or even possibly ...."off with his head"....

Ouch! But of course keep this in mind.... This is law there in the wonderful land of freely oppressed muslim rule. The land were men are men... and beat their wives with joy and glee only known to children running free in a candy store. The land where a woman is put to death for figting off rapists, killing one to protect her honor and her family's honor. But you see this is against the law... for a woman to stand up for her rights.

 Funny thing... that may be against the law... but this IS a law...

Those savages.... how dare they use the incorrect stone for such an ordeal!!! Send them to the gallows I say.

Now since I have been outspoken on this... I am certainly a marked man by the Iranian government, but that is okay with me... I have my back covered. I have enlisted several into my own private military... here is but one of my thousands of cammandos...

And that is just one state! there are 49 more ..... so to you ... the baddies of the world, I say this.....

      Yet even with the bad guys that I found out about.... I have realized that the US is not in Iraq for oil... or even to free an oppessed nation from a dictator's rule. I have found out it was not a secret ploy by the government, or any other agency.... but really it have been the devious acts of......

Lee....Lee....Lee, say it ain't so!

 Today I shall rant. I have seen many times these past days way too many America bashing statements. What is worse, some of these come from "american Citizens", so this is my reply to them.

This was in an e-mail sent to me by my brother. Even if this had not actually happened, it makes perfect sense anyways.

Written by an Australian Dentist...

To Kill an American

You probably missed it in the rush of news last week, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is so they would know when they found one.

(Good one, mate!!!!)

"An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or Afghan. An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans. An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in Afghanistan. The only difference is! that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses.An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God. An American lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness. An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country! As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan. Americans welcome the best of everything...the best products, the best books, the best music, the best food, the best services. But they also welcome the least. The national symbol of America, The Statue of Liberty, welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless,tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built America. Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001 earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted

the terrorists.So you can try to kill an American if you must. Hitler did. So did

General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world. But, in doing so you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.
