That you will — naturally — hear absolutely nothing about in the American media. It is from a letter that was released at a January 19 press briefing; i.e., if you ain’t heard it, you ain’t gonna hear it. Ahh, but the good old American media knows what’s good for us.
"Our schools, governmental services, businesses and offices were closed. Our streets were silent, and no one dared to walk them. Our people were barricaded in their homes out of fear; death awaited them around every corner. Terrorists occupied and controlled the only hospital in the city. Their savagery reached such a level that they stuffed the corpses of children with explosives and tossed them into the streets in order to kill grieving parents attempting to retrieve the bodies of their young.
“This was the situation of our city until God prepared and delivered...the courageous soldiers of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, who liberated this city, ridding it of al-Zarqawi's followers after harsh fighting, killing many terrorists and forcing the remaining butchers to flee the city like rats to the surrounding areas, where the bravery of other 3rd ACR soldiers in Sinjar, Rabiah, Zumar and Avgani finally destroyed them. To the courageous men and women of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, who have changed the city of Tall Afar from a ghost town, in which terrorists spread death and destruction, to a secure city flourishing with life, to the lion-hearts who liberated our city from the grasp of terrorists who were beheading men, women and children in the streets for many months, to those who spread smiles on the faces of our children and gave us restored hope, through their personal sacrifice and brave fighting, and gave new life to the city after hopelessness darkened our days and stole our confidence in our ability to reestablish our city...
“God bless this brave Regiment; God bless the families who dedicated these brave men and women. From the bottom of our hearts we thank the families. They have given us something we will never forget... Let America, their families and the world be proud of their sacrifice for humanity and life."
—Najim Abdullah Abid Al-Jubouri, mayor of Tall Afar in the Iraqi province of Nineveh (Tall Afar was the main base of operations for the terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi)

See Ya
I'm out of here until the end of February. LRRP's World will be back - and so will I - when I return.
THIS WON’T BE REPORTED
All the military services exceeded their recruiting goals for January - a trend that's continued for eight consecutive months, Defense Department officials announced today.
The January figures reflect continued recruiting successes since last June, Air Force Lt. Col. Ellen Krenke, a Pentagon spokesperson, told American Forces Press Service. "These successes are helping the services build the momentum they need as they approach the springtime months, which are traditionally slower times for recruiting," she said. Recruiting typically rebounds again during the summer months, following high school graduations, Krenke noted.
During January, the Army recruited 8,337 new members, 103 percent of its goal; the Navy, 2,726, 101 percent; the Marine Corps, 3,234, 106 percent; and the Air Force, 2,915, 101 percent.

2006’s 1984 COMES FROM 1946
This is from a declassified report written in 1946. Like Orwell’s 1984, it should act as a wake up. It won’t and you won’t read about it anywhere else, but it should. Thios is from an 11-page section entitled: "Islam: A Threat to World Stability."
“With few exceptions, the states [in the Muslim world] are marked by poverty, ignorance, and stagnation. It is full of discontent and frustration, yet alive with consciousness of its inferiority and with determination to achieve some kind of betterment.
“Two basic urges meet head-on in this area, and conflict is inherent in this collision of interests. These urges reveal themselves in the daily news accounts of killings and terrorism, of pressure groups in opposition, and of raw nationalism and naked expansionism masquerading as diplomatic maneuvers.
“The first of these urges originates within the Moslems' own sphere. The Moslems remember the power with which once they not only ruled their own domains but also overpowered half of Europe, yet they are painfully aware of their present economic, cultural and military impoverishment. Thus a terrific internal pressure is building up in their collective thinking. The Moslems intend, by any means possible, to regain political independence and to reap the profits of their own resources. The area, in short, has an inferiority complex, and its activities are thus as unpredictable as those of any individual so motivated.”
It’s an 80-or-so page report and can be downloaded as a PDF at here

WHAT IN GOD’S NAME ARE WE WAITING FOR?
Iran has started their uranium enrichment program. Is there ANYONE out there who doesn’t understand what this means?
Do we really have to see a mushroom cloud over Manhattan, or can we get preemptive and make sure it’s over Teheran instead?
I’m sorry. Did that offend someone?
Too bad. I’d rather them glowing in the dark than us.
Bomb them conventionally now before our worst fears become reality. And don’t — for a minute — think they won’t use what they have against us.

It all started February 7, 40 years ago — yes, yes, I know I’m missed it. That was the day the Beatles arrived in America. Two days later John, Paul, George and Ringo played the Ed Sullivan Show and nothing was ever the same.

THINGS TO DO THIS WEEKEND
Buy ANYthing Danish. Whether it’s made in Denmark, sounds like it’s Danish, looks Danish … take up biathlon or any Nordic sport, herd reindeer, ANYthing as long as it has a Danish connection. Instead of bagels and a schmear, get a Danish and schmear, buy a Dabnish flag ...ANYthing.
Bomb Iran. That’s a fairly simple request. I dug out an old RAM IRAN button I kept from back in the hostage crisis days. I was hoping it said “Fuck Iran,” but apparently I had more couth back then. So, anyway, bomb Iran before they bomb us.
Oh...and write your local paper and tell them they're pussies for not printing the cartoons of Allah. It's okay to run pictures of a shit-smeared image of the Virgin Mary, but not pictures of Allah with a bomb sticking out of his head. Pussies and phonies ... all of them.
I feel much better now.
Have a good weekend.

WE SHOULD ELECT THIS GUY
An absolutely intriguing speech about the so-called Cartoon Affair by Muslim dissident Ayaan Hirsi Ali, given in Berlin yesterda (09 February).
Unlike ANY of the words or examples of our own media’s anti-American bullshit, that of allied pseudo-intellectuals and/or Middle America-hating/baiting liberals it may well be one of the finest explanation of Voltaire’s “I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.”
One segment of the speech follows, but please go here to read this excellent piece of oratory.
“Shame on those papers and TV channels who lacked the courage to show their readers the caricatures in The Cartoon Affair. These intellectuals live off free speech but they accept censorship. They hide their mediocrity of mind behind noble-sounding terms such as ‘responsibility’ and ‘sensitivity’.”
I’m sure Ayaan Hirsi Ali will have to look over his shoulder from now on (I have a feeling he’s been doing that for a while anyway), but he’s welcome in my home.

NO WONDER THEY WANTED TO KILL HIM
"As their ancient, deeply civilized culture of love, art and philosophical reflection is hijacked by paranoiacs, racists, liars, male supremacists, tyrants, fanatics and violence junkies, why are they not screaming? … The Islamic world today is being held prisoner, not by Western but by Islamic captors, who are fighting to keep closed a world that a badly outnumbered few are trying to open. As long as the majority remains silent, this will be a tough war to win. But in the end, or so we must hope, someone will kick down that prison door.” — Salman Rushdie on the silence of non-radical Muslims in an editorial in the November 27, 2002 edition of The New York Times.
NOW HERE’S AN OPINION PIECE
Ann Coulter … here’s a taste:
“Catholics aren't short on rules, but they couldn't care less if non-Catholics use birth control. Conservative Jews have no interest in forbidding other people from mixing meat and dairy. Protestants don't make a peep about other people eating food off one another's plates. (Just stay away from our plates -- that's disgusting.)
But Muslims think they can issue decrees about what images can appear in newspaper cartoons. Who do they think they are, liberals?”
But for the entire piece head Here

WAPO: VULGAR AND OFFENSIVE
That paragon of tree waste, The Washington Post, has called the cartoons of Allah making their way around,"vulgar and offensive" and noted they were published as a “calculated insult by a right-wing newspaper in a country where bigotry toward the minority Muslim population is a major, if frequently unacknowledged, problem.”
Remember: This is coming from bird cage lining that printed an editorial cartoon OF AN AMERICAN SOLDIER WHO HAD LOST HIS ARMS AND LEGS IN COMBAT under the guise of editorial freedom. What scumbags!
This is how this waste of trees excuses what anyone with a mind knows and understands: this was instigated by terrorist Muslim clerics supported by terrorists from Iran and elsewhere who were touring the Mideast five months AFTER the cartoons were published, with cartoons that WEREN’T published anywhere ... they were drawn by the self-same clerics. Can you say "stone 'em?"
Thank God we’ve got the “we’ll-take-the-moral-high-ground” WAPO to set us straight!
“There are a legion of fools running amok these days trying to convince us that Islam has been provoked into attacking us by the poverty and misery that exists among its adherents ... because of exploitation by the West. That’s garbage. The poverty and misery is the result of Islam’s centuries-long refusal to join the modern world and bring its material benefits to its people … “ Phil Brennan.
Bomb Iran.

COOL TALE
Five WW II Pacific theater ex-POWs who had been meeting for breakfast for several years and had the tab picked up by an anonymous benefactor finally met the man who been responsible. William Blair, an Army vet and local businessman (Norfolk, VA), had seen the men’s cars with POW plates and asked about them at the diner where they met. He arranged to pick up the tab from then on. Nice guy, nice story. For the entire tale go to Military.Com

CARTOON CRUSADES: TAKE TWO
Apparently there is no end to this hysteria.
Iran’s Hamshahri daily newspaper has started a cartoon contest to see who can draw the best cartoon concerning the Holocaust. The winner gets two gold coins — a bit medieval, but appropriate for this lunacy.
Ya just can’t make this crap up.
Lost in the shuffle and excitement over who will win are stories such as Iran's continued daliiance with nuclear destruction, military deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan, release of the lowest unemployment numbers in recent memory, the best one liner of 2006 (Mick Jagger at the Super Bowl halftime show regarding the song "Satisfaction:" "We could have played this at Super Bowl One.") and other minor stuff.
Sufferin' succotash!

THAAAATS ALL FOLKS!
Media mavens have dubbed the hue and cry in the Muslim world over the cartoons of Allah that appeared in a Danish Newspaper five months ago a “Cartoon Crisis,” and I can’t even read that headline without laughing.
People are stoning buildings, setting fires, fire bombing things, etc., over the cartoons. Then they go about their normal business of flying planes into buildings, beheading people, blowing each other up over interpretations of a book written thousands of years ago, stoning women, etc., etc., ad nauseam.
Talk about cartoons? Islam is showing itself to be one joke of a religion. (I could be really crude and make a Porky Pig reference here, but I’ll demur.)

HAD WE ONLY KNOWN
If we’d have figured out that all we had to do to get the Muslim world in as frothy a frenzy as a dozen pilgrims in a Mecca riot was to draw some damn cartoons, we could have had them all at each other’s throats even earlier.
On top of that, they’d be so busy burning Western embassies they wouldn’t have time for IEDs or anything else.
By Jove, stop the presses! I think I’ve hit on the ultimate withdrawal strategy.
Beam “Sponge Allah Square Pants” down all over the Arab world. Those that didn’t choke to death on their goat steaks would be so busy stampeding over each other to throw the first Molatov, that our people could waltz the hell away and no one would be any the wiser. And when they found out we’re gone they could go back to blowing up each other again.
And that’s all for today. Till next time, kiddies, this is yer ol’ Uncle Gary saying ... Bomb Iran!!

DOES ANYONE IN HOLLYWOOD HAVE COJONES?
Apparently very few.
Here’s a story that appeared in the December 22, 2005 edition of USA Today, written by Martin Kasindorf and Steve Komarow, that certainly wasn’t picked up by the rest of the mainstream media. It actually names Hollywood celebs who have gone to Iraq and Afghanistan on USO tours.
All the BS Hollywood types show their true colors when it comes to leaving the world of make believe and giving something — ANYthing — back. And people actually listen to these phonies, simply because they appear on screen.
Some of the good guys names will surprise you. It’s just too bad this piece hasn’t gotten wider distribution.

DOONESBURY A HIT ... AGAIN
With all the hoo-hah about cartoons of Allah, this one may slip under the wire and deserves not to. Gary Trudeau, author of the Doonesbury cartoon which has drawn critique from just about everyone in the political spectrum (though he’s probably best known for skewering conservatives) has authored a new compilation of cartoons relating to the character BD, who’s been around since the Viet Nam days and is the soldier foil in Trudeau’s cartoons.
I have a copy of the 1971 book “But This War Had Such Promise” that follows the football helmet clad BD and his new friend, Phred the Terrorist, through the Viet Nam war. Like most things written during that time it’s slanted toward anti-war sentiment, but everything was slanted that way, and it didn’t detract from its popularity. Besides, it was hysterical and pretty much on the money.
Regardless, Trudeau was signing copies of his latest “The Long Road Home” at the Pentagon on January 31. The book deals with BD, now an amputee from Iraq action and how he deals with the loss after coming home. Accounts published on the Army News Service say it has been well received.
Goes to show that military men can still find the humor in anything, no matter how rough it gets.

THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED
Today marks the 47th anniversary of the day the plane containing Buddy Holly (22), Richie Valens (17) and J.J. “The Big Bopper” Richardson (28) went down sometime after 1 a.m. in an Iowa cornfield while en route to Fargo, ND. The long-forgotten name of the plane’s pilot was Roger Peterson.
The event spawned DonMcLean’s ode American Pie, in 1971, which became a number one album the following year. In turn, American Pie was the inspiration for Robert Flack’s Killing Me Softly With His Song (released in January 1973 and went gold the following month).
McClean re-released an American Pie album in 1991 in the UK, and Madonna re-recorded the famous song in 2000.

CALL CHAVEZ’ BLUFF
Big mouth (and unfortunately he’s an ex-paratrooper), political anachronist, and general all around Che-wannabe, President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela has threatened to cut off oil sales to the US (Citgo is wholly owned by the Venezuelan government, by the way).
So lets call this moron’s bluff. Go ahead big mouth. Cut it off.
Let’s see: you supply 15 percent of OUR oil, but we buy 60 percent of YOUR production. Hmmmmm, okay, you can sell the 60 percent to your trading buddies in Iran, Cuba and Russia. What’s that? Iran and Russia have their own and Cuba is still a wood and charcoal economy? Well, TS, Chavez.
Now shut up and go back to los llanos and re-read the Communist Manifesto.

Kerry Skis While Davos Demos Dive.
John Kerry unsuccessfully tried to organize a Democratic Party filibuster to prevent the nomination of Judge Alito to the Supreme Court from the — literally — rarefied atmosphere of Switzerland’s ski slopes. Finding that the Demo’s obfuscating arguments against Alito were getting their own people confused, the effort flopped and Alito became the newest Justice. The words “Davos Democrats” entered the vernacular for the first time (for those who spend little time on sticks: Davos is a ski resort in Switzerland), causing hysterics in most Republicans and making them change their underwear.
Bush, er, Bad. Bad Boy. Sit.
Here’s a surprise — virtually every talking head, newspaper and anyone with access to a computer was dissecting every adjective of the State of the Union speech and generally droning on about how bad it was. Energy policy — or lack thereof — seemed to have drawn a lot of flak, though apparently EVERYthing GB presented was wrong, incorrect, tepid, simplistic, farcical and otherwise unworthy. (Personally, I missed the national policy segment of the speech, because I just don’t care enough). The San Francisco Congressional and House contingents simply hated it en masse. Grave walking whacky Peace Mom — who should meet whacky Dead Bomber Sons’ mom and compare notes — was tossed, assuring that her 10 minutes of fame, which was up at least 120 minutes ago, continued.
Dysfunctional Diatribes Continue
The terrorist Mutts and Murderers Society has called for yet another jihad — get this — because a paper in Denmark had the audacity to print cartoons of Allah. They added Israel to the list as well, but no one can figure out why. The cartoons appeared in a SEPTEMBER 2005 edition here. Then, crazy ol’ President Ahmadinejad of Iran said the rest of the world should allow Iran to live in peace while it tries to destroy the rest of the world; Iran’s defense minister said Iran’s Air Force is ready to defend Iran (yeah, so was Iraq’s).
