Ho-hum.
Unfortunately he went for killing “only” 150 people.
But I guess if he’d been tried him for using WMDs on his own people, it might have gotten in the way of the liberal rant.
Oh, hell, why let the truth get in the way of bad reportage and obfuscating political opinion.
Have a safe and happy New Year.

45th ANNIVERSASRY of the SEALs
I had the opportunity to interview some World War II and post WW II Scouts, Raiders, Naval Combat Demolition Units and UDT members down at the UDT/SEAL Museum in Ft. Pierce, Florida, in 1997. These were the SEALs forerunners. I also was able to get a interview with Roy Boehm, the “father” of the modern Nay SEALs.
I was fortunate to have kept these interviews on tape. A story on the NCDU, UDT, Scouts and Raiders appeared in an issue of Sport Diver magazine (I was managing editor at the time) along with some excellent WWII photography. The full interview with Boehm appeared in Soldier of Fortune magazine not long after.
Here’s a snippet from the Boehm — who called me a Blanket Head when he found out I was an Army LRRP — interview regarding his take on Red Cell (OP-O6D: the “never existed” operational unit tasked with terrorism operations against US Military bases and assets, that may — or may not — have infiltrated the White House on one mission, and were fond of driving motor scooters up to Navy brass stationed overseas and putting a — to paraphrase — “You’re dead, asshole. Love, the Red Brigade” bumper sticker on their foreheads), its founders Admiral James “Ace” Lyons and Commander Richard “Dick” Marcinko, unconventional warfare and terrorism.
“In order to change a conventional Navy [to an nonconventional force] you had to break the rules. Marsinko and Ace Lyons broke the rules. He [Marcinko] went into Seal Team 6 and broke the rules … I admire Dick. He has the two items need to change a conventional Navy to unconventional warfare. He had balls … Ace Lyons came aboard had the guts to back him at CNO level … If they left that [Red Cell,] in force instead of watering it down because it was killing other people's careers. If they'd have left that in force we wouldn't have the terrorist problem we have today.”
Anyway … the present day SEALs 45th anniversary is January 1 (Teams One in the Pacific Fleet and Two in the Atlantic Fleet; 1962), so here’s to them that are, them that were and them that didn’t come home.

HE'S A FORD NOT A LINCOLN
President Gerald Ford uttered those words after his swearing in ceremony.
So here’s a salute to President Ford who died yesterday.
Say what you like about the man, he had dignity and cojones. He was the president who sent the military (and some civilian volunteers) in to re-take the Mayaquez , a freighter pirated by the Khmer Rouge in 1975.
And say what you want about the rescue, which ended up with three captured (and executed Marines), plus some 33 KIAs, he didn’t sit on his hands and worry about what the public might think.
I don’t think the USS Pueblo (taken by the North Koreans) or the USS Liberty (attacked by the Israelis) would have ended the same way they did had President Ford been the C-i-C.
So Hail to a Chief with Cojones ... and Godspeed.

AWWWWW
On a lighter note:
As per Media Bistro:
The New York Times correspondent Carlotta Gall says she was assaulted by Pakistani government security agents while reporting in Quetta, a Pakistani city near the Afghan frontier where NATO suspects the Taliban hides its shadow government. According to Gall, the agents broke down the door to her hotel room, after she refused to let them enter, and began to seize her notebooks and laptop. When she tried to stop them, she says one of the men punched her twice in the face and head.
Was that twice in the face and twice in the head, or twice, once in the face and once in the head?
And what part of “you ain’t in Kansas anymore” don’t you get? Let’s hear it for the Pakis on the border even if they are hiding that skinny f---er Osama.

WELCOME HOME
The Department of Defense POW/Missing Personnel Office (DPMO) announced today that the remains of two U.S. servicemen, missing in action from the Vietnam War, have been identified and will be returned to their families for burial with full military honors.
They are Maj. Frederick J. Ransbottom, of Oklahoma City, Okla.; and Staff Sgt. William E. Skivington Jr.; of Las Vegas, Nev.; both U.S. Army. Ransbottom will be buried in Edmond, Okla. on Jan. 13, and Skivington will be buried at Arlington National Cemetery near Washington, D.C., on Jan. 23.
Representatives from the Army met with the next-of-kin of these men to explain the recovery and identification process, and to coordinate interment with military honors on behalf of the Secretary of the Army.
On May 12, 1968, North Vietnamese forces overran the Kham Duc Special Forces camp and its surrounding observation posts in Quang Nam-Da Nang Province (formerly Quang Tin Province), South Vietnam. Ransbottom and Skivington were two of the 17 U.S. servicemen unaccounted-for after the survivors evacuated the camp. Search and recovery efforts at the site in 1970 succeeded in recovering remains of five of the 17 men. A sixth man was returned alive during Operation Homecoming in 1973 after having been captured and held prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese.
Between 1993 and 2006, joint U.S./Socialist Republic of Vietnam teams, led by the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command (JPAC), conducted eight investigations and four excavations in the vicinity of the camp site. The team interviewed former North Vietnamese officers and soldiers who participated in the battle. Some recalled seeing the bodies of U.S. servicemen near one of the observation posts, and U.S. eyewitness accounts placed Ransbottom and Skivington near the post.
During an excavation conducted in 1998, two U.S. servicemen who survived the battle accompanied JPAC to help locate the observation posts, but found no evidence of human remains. Later excavations conducted in the area yielded human remains, identification media and personal effects for Ransbottom, Skivington and several other soldiers.
Among other forensic identification tools and circumstantial evidence, scientists from JPAC also used dental comparisons in the identification of the remains.

HERE’S SOMETHING YOU’VE NEVER SEEN/HEARD
While every Liberal and Dem who voted to go to war is castigating the President in the middle of the war (I could go on and on about those blowhards, but I have work to do) … another side of the good ol’ religion of peace pops up.
On one level THIS borders on the hysterical. On another, I guarantee you’ll sit there watching with your mouth agape. On a third level, you’ll think that the guy talking is — as he says — a normal guy going about his daily normal job just like you and me. On a fourth level, it’s just plain FASCINATING.
It’s an interview wit Abdallah al Bishi, the state appointed executioner in Saudi Arabia.
Abdallah comes from a line of executioners. His father was an executioner and his son was just appointed the executioner in Riyahd. This brings to mind an Abbot & Costello routine about mudders, but I’ll pass.
You really have to watch THIS beginning to end. A little long (seems over five minutes), but believe me … you wanna see all of it.
No on-the-job action sequences, English subtitles, straight “News at 6”-style newscast and … oh, a pretty hot Saudi newsbabe (with her head).

TW3
As much as I would love to leave things alone this time of year … I just can’t.
The scumbags over at the NYT are busy distributing everything but architectural drawings and a blast point analysis on how to blow tunnels in NYC.
We killed some Mullar Omani or somesuch in Afghanistan. A big-time Taliban wog, and it was done by airstrike. Apparently those reward posters DO work, and apparently the wogs don’t get it yet.
Iran — you know, the country I want nuked — continues to tell the UN (and the US and Israel) to collectively go f--k themselves. And nobody’s nuking the f--ks.
A newspaper report about Democrat congressman under indictment neglected to mention what party he belonged to anywhere in the story, while one about a Republican under investigation led with the party name. (Pick a rag, any rag.)
On a more local rag front, the Times Review of Riverhead , NY, printed a revealing Freudian slip in its year-end wrap up. While speaking of incumbents winning local elections, they titled the story “insurgents” win. Oh, yeah, they’re fair and balanced … oh, and right, they didn’t mean anything by it.
Air temp in my area was as high as 60 degrees today. My wife and I ate al fresco at the local Mexican restaurant (one which I higly recommend: Funcho's).
Bush, Rice and Gates are discussing strategy, I’m not sure where I stand on the Marines charged with murder in Haditha, and I swear I won’t write anything else until … well, until I get pissed off again, which should be in about two hours when the news runs.
Until then … I really DO wish you a Merry Christmas, I really DO want you to pray for our troops and I really DO want Iran nuked.

Hey, don't get me wrong .... I still want to bomb Iran, but I'll put that on hold until December 26.
Meanwhile ... all you kiddies out there have a good Christmas and say a prayer for the guys and girls who are in harm's way.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

NEWS FROM THE WORLD OF MEDIA
Such that it is …
Judith Regan, the editor who was running with the If I Did It OJ confessionary tale, was canned by Rupert Murdoch. The original word was simply that, but spinners then let out that it had to do with anti-Semitic remarks she made in a phone conversation. Naturally, the rest of the press that is following this story could give a shit less WHAT she says. Anti-Semitism only counts as a negative if you’re a member of that most hard-pressed of species: the white, conservative male.
Keith “Jock Sniffer” Olberman is looking for something like a $3 million raise from MS-NBC. Keith really isn’t that good, preferring to deal in simplistic, un-thought-out liberal anti-American ravings rather than reality. But, hey, with everyone telling him how great he is, he’s come to believe it. Now if he’ll only hold out long enough to get canned.
There’s other stuff, but it’s so insider that it’ll be about as interesting to recount as watching … well, Keith Olberman.
Th-th-th-th-that's All, Folks.

HOW DUMB ARE THEY?
In other political news you won't read anywhere else: the new Democrat "leader" of the House Intelligence Committee, a Texas Congressman appointed by San Fran Nan, Silvestre Reyes, hasn't a clue about who the enemy is. When interviewed by Congressional Quarterly he answered wrong to which religious group al Qaeda belonged, nor could he answer who Hezbollah was (and DID ask, jokingly, "Can I answer in Spanish?").
To be fair, neither could the outgoing head of the committee, nor could the head of the FBI counterterrorism unit or just about anybody else having to do with the war on terror.
Answers: Al Qaeda is Sunni and was founded to "purify" Islam. Hezbollah, which has been around since the late 70s/early 80s (and along with Iran), is helping the Iraqi Shi'ites kill Iraqi Sunni.
You BETTER know WHO your f-----g enemy IS before you go and get bloody.
Betcha’ Rumsfeld knew the answer.

RUMSFELD FAREWELL MESSAGE
The entire text of retiring SecDef Rumsfeld can be found — among other places — HERE .
He did a better job that Gates will do, and he got tossed because he didn't give a rat shit what the press had to babble about his style and thus made them an enemy, which wasn't a politically bright thing to do, thus proving his entire focus was on kicking ass in a place where kicking ass is the only thing anyone understands. (And yes, not ALL of his policy ideas were great, but the majority were on the right track).

LAST LETTERS HOME
I don’t suppose anyone out there doesn’t know where I stand on warfare in general and the current wars in particular. That said …
Do not miss — and I know this has been out for over a year at least — Last Letters Home: American Soldiers . It’s an HBO documentary that goes to the families of 10 men and women killed in Action in Iraq, and has them read their sons’, daughters’ or husbands’ last letters home.
This is a true documentary — it isn’t purveying a point of view or political position — it simply relates through heartbreaking interviews with the wives and parents of these troops what was on their minds before they died.
I cried through the entire thing, but this is a movie not to be missed because this is also a big part of the warrior ethos — and one I have unremittingly avoided.
All of us who have seen real war, tend to shuffle the horror of it to the land where our nightmares dwell, but it’s something like this that is needed to shine daylight on those forgotten or disremembered happenings.
That doesn’t change my mind, but it does remind me of things I’m glad to be able to say are forgotten.
Regardless … do not miss this show: Last Letters Home: American Soldiers .

NOT EVEN GOD WANTS THE DEMS IN CONTROL
Not wanting to make light of Senator Johnson's (D-SD) medical problems (he suffered some sort of aneurysm during an interview on Wednesday and is in CCU as I write this),but Nancy Pelosi really must be the devil, 'cause it seems as if even God doesn't want the Dems to have control of the Senate. If Johnson is unable to fulfill his term, the governor of South Dakota, who happens to be a Republican, gets to pick his replacement. A new election wouldn't occur until 2008.
That would make the Senate a 50-50 split with the tiebreaker going to ... ta-dah ... Dick Cheney as speaker.
I'm waiting for the Pelosi/Kennedy/Kerry/et al, camp and the media to blame this on President Bush ... I expect that to occur as soon as Johnson's prognosis (which certainly doesn't sound good, despite all the Bphony semantic glad handing and well wishing) becomes more definitive.
I can't enjoy someone else's misfortune, regardless of who or what they are, so my prayers for him and to his family. Christmas is a shitty time for that kind of stuff to happen.
But, you gotta' wonder!!

AND SOME HOW OR ANOTHER I MISSED THIS
She came up in a conversation about women we’d vote for as president (Condoleeza Rice won), but if she was still alive she’d have been the front runner … Jean Kirkpatrick, whose passing I didn’t acknowledge on December 7.
A kick-ass broad, advisor to presidents, ambassador to that den on iniquity on the East River, former marxist/socialist and former Democrat who turned Republican when the San Francisco Democrats betrayed the heritage (and cojones) Truman left them.
Needless to say her passing was not terribly important to the mass media … guess she was had too much gumption for them.
My thanks to — heart be still — Massachusetts Kennedy-ite Chris K for pointing out her passing and my lack of coverage.

AMERICA BEEN BERRY, BERRY GOOD TO ME

Bill Clinton got $12 million for his memoirs. His wife Hillary got $8 million for hers.
That’s $20 million for the memoirs of two people who for eight years repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn’t remember anything.

SILLY STRING SAVES THE DAY
From an Associated Press report (and courtesy of Paul L who turned me onto the story):
Apparently, GIs and Grunts in Iraq have taken to using Silly String (that stuff that sprays out a string of some substance) into rooms before entering. If the string hangs up, it's a tripwire. COMPLETE STORY HERE

Pearl Harbor Day
A salute to all those lost in the infamous December 7, 1941 attack. In all, 2403 Americans lost their lives and 1,178 were wounded.
Let's hope we remember the victims of the September 11 attacks as long ... because it sure seems like we've managed to erase that from our collective consciences. And in case you are one of those who HAVE forgotten September 11, 2001: 2,948 dead; 24 reported dead, 24 reported missing.

WHAT IN GOD’S NAME …
What the hell is wrong with everybody? Iran is warning the Euros about not screwing around with their nuke program, and nobody has fired a shot yet? We know most of them are money-centered cowards masquerading as Give Peace a Chance idiots, but ...
When the hell did everybody start listening to a bunch of religious perverts telling the rest us how to run the world? AND WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH AMERICA? Is this administration so worried about what the Libs and Dems will say that it's frozen? Screw 'em ... launch a tatical nuke NOW.
The Dems and Libs will have plenty of time to drag our country into economic ruin while making us a laughing stock on the international stage if they assume power. Screw 'em.
Nuke Iran Now … or we’re gonna have a BIG problem. You heard it here first.
