Pakistan army says airstrikes kill 30 militants

It's time American troops Rock n Roll's there to. The extremist group believed responsible for the terrorists killings in Mumbai wrote a manifesto just months earlier warning it would launch massacres against Indian government and civilian targets. Accusing the Indian government of anti-Muslim behavior, the document warns, We warn you to end this hypocrisy or get ready for a bloody slaughter. It adds, We are watching you and our ground-work to gun you down has already begun. The little-noticed warning was signed by the Indian Mujahideen in the Land of Hind. Indian and U.S. intelligence officials believe this group is actually a coalition of Pakistan-based Islamic terrorists that includes Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT). Its suicide operatives killed nearly 200 in Mumbai last week in one of the worst terror attacks ever in South Asia. Almost all terror groups change their names for several reason. Almost all terror groups change their names for several reasons. One is to deflect responsibility to avoid retaliation. Another is for deception. It makes things appear as though their are numerous groups fighting for the same cause, whatever that cause is.

While I understand Indian anger and their desire for vengence, ramping up tensions along the India-Pakistan border is precisely the goal of these Islamist groups. Their none to transparent plan is to encourage Pakistan to move its forces to the Indian border in order to take pressure off the tribal lands. An escalation with India in order to and divert Pakistani troops from the Afganistan border was precisely the purpose of this attack. Let's hope cooler heads prevail and India and Pakistan's responses do not play into the terrorists' hands. Indeed, this attack is evidence that al-queda may be feeling our heat.

What they are thinking. "Why does Pakistan want to kill the people in Iraq?. It's not over our land. So what is it?. We are doing good now. Nuke Pakistan if they won't change."

The Palestinian community in Iraq - many of whose members have feared for their safety since Saddam Hussein�s ouster - is gaining more access to health care with a new medical clinic in eastern Baghdad.

The private clinic opened Nov. 17 with the help of embedded provincial construction team members and soldiers with the 4th Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, according to a news release issued by Multi-National Division-Baghdad.

Thousands of Palestinians fled to Iraq when Jewish forces took control of Haifa in 1948. Saddam, eager to boost his credentials in the Arab world, reportedly gave them financial support and other favors.

After Saddam was toppled, many Palestinians were forced out of their housing and became afraid to travel outside their enclave to receive medical treatment because of their ethnicity and because they're Sunni. The new government is predominantly Shiite, and some Shiites are resentful of the special status the Palestinians had under Saddam. Other Palestinians fled to refugee camps near Syria.

President Bush has done more to defeat these murders than any other leader in the world! Obama and the Dems are not going to wish this issue away! Clinton and Carter tried it and look what happened on 9/11. I hope America finally recognizes what a good leader President Bush has been, at least on this issue.

You are joking... right?

Ridgerunner is right! President Bush has fought and defeated terrorists more than any other leader in the world.
He is also right about oil exploration so we can become energy independant. He is also right about family values and having a strong military. He gave a tax cut that my family really needed. Obama will do none of the above!
