A throw-away question, or an important point about the stupidity of trying enemy combatants in civilian courts? This isn’t a silly question, and our political leaders shouldn’t be blowing it off. Remember that, in civilian courts, a failure to have Mirandized the accused before interrogating him/her is the sort of transgression that can get cases thrown out of court. As can interrogating...
He enjoys growing sunflowers, has daddy issues, and suffers from disabling blindness in his right eye. But this man is no sympathy figure — he’s the world’s most wanted terrorist Osama Bin Laden. “Growing up Bin Laden” follows the intimate inside st...
In an interview with the New Statesman, the fourth eldest son of the world’s most wanted man said that he “passionately wants to try to stop violence”. Asked whether he plans to enter politics or public life, Mr bin Laden said: “I do not believe that I [...]
What jihad? Another jihad bust in the war that doesn't exist in the minds of our betters. I hear Major Muslim Hasan, soldier of allah, will cop an insanity plea. Does that mean Islam is a mental illness? Or is it another jihad rape of the American justice system to advance Islam and get away with killing Americans in their war on the West. Meanwhile the State department is importing whole Muslim communities...
The Other McCain today has a post about South Park's latest episode, featuring Eric Cartman singing his lamentations over the rising tide of immigrant minorities to the United States. I watched the episode over the weekend at the South Park website . I have noticed that South Park appears to be titling leftward politically over the past few episodes. This is after years of tilting right -- there was...
The Justice Department announced Monday terrorism charges against eight people accused of recruiting young men in Minneapolis to fight for an al Qaeda-inspired organization in Somalia. For the past two years, authorities say, about 20 young men, all but one of whom are of Somali decent, have left their homes in Minnesota to go fight with al-Shabaab, which has pledged allegiance to Osama Bin Laden and...
Sometimes, I can roll through my dead-tree copy of Time in five minutes. Occasionally, it takes two hours. Sometimes there's stuff good enough to pass on to you. I like to get the actual magazine probably because I'm old-fashioned enough to enjoy reading stuff that's not on a screen. Also, I get access to their website. I'm not sure if non-subscribers get the same access to that that I do. Money saving...
David Beamer, the father of Todd Beamer, the young husband and father who stormed the cockpit of United Flight 93 on September 11, 2001, is on FOX this minute. I'm hoping the video will be up shortly, but until then, I have paraphrased a few of his comments. David Beamer - father of Todd Beamer Mr. Beamer attended the Senate Judiciary Committee meeting on November 18th, in which Attorney General Eric...
Photo: Hasan: One of many more attackers. Fort Hood: Terror's 'Third Wave' -- New York Post The Fort Hood killings were no isolated incident, but part of al Qaeda's "third wave." The 9/11 terrorists were the first wave: Their attacks culminated years of direct attacks on America and the West by al Qaeda operators -- a core group of Saudi, Yemeni and other identifiably Arab men. But Osama...
Speaker Pelosi won’t answer if Osama Bin Laden has to be read his rights when he is arrested. CNS News reported: Related… 9-11 terrorists look forward to their show trials in New York City and will use the occasion to air their grievances about US foreign policy.
Romenesko Memos Ryan Checkeye writes in his farewell note to colleagues that "this has been, without question, the strangest job I've ever had. ...Callers have threatened suicide, questioned my patriotism, reported UFOs, accused me (and Matt Tully) of stealing their thoughts, and peppered me with ethnic slurs. I once found an 80-year-old Pulitzer medal in a box of trash ... I've received mail...
Gordon Cucullu: The Fort Hood killings were no isolated incident, but part of al Qaeda's "third wave." The 9/11 terrorists were the first wave: Their attacks culminated years of direct attacks on America and the West by al Qaeda operators -- a core group of Saudi, Yemeni and other identifiably Arab men. But Osama bin Laden and his key assistants had long realized we'd take measures to guard...
By Nicholas Stix Did Eric Holder Get His Law Degree from the University of Phoenix? The more I see of Attorney General Eric Holder (ZANU PF), the more convinced I become that the average Tuscaloosa traffic cop knows considerably more about the criminal law, constitutional law, military law, scientific laws and Burke’s Law (not to mention traffic law) than he does. The only area in which I would...
Incendiary is based around a fictional terrorist attack in London, although the narrative is written entirely as a letter to Osama Bin laden by a mother who lost her husband and son in the bomb. Not really a promising start for a novel, but it was fantastic. I was looking forward to reading this as soon as I read The Other Hand, and I'd have to say I thought this was slightly better. It has the same...

That's what Bin Laden more or less said in his new published audio tape . Nope, don't blame him, blame the Israelites. They are the forces of evil, because they're jews. We know how terrible they've treated humanity. The thieving scum. The truth is more complicated than that, me thinks. As the saying goes "It's easy to blame others but not ourselves". I'm not just refering to Bin Laden. I'm also refering...
