This brave marine was a victim of a PC war. Cpl Thomas was following the alleged orders of his Sgt.that had decided to find and kill a known enemy. When they were unable to locate him, they allegedly took Hashim Ibrahim Awad and shot him. It was alleged by Awad's family and the military's prosecutor that the guy was a "friendly." Cpl. Thomas was the only accused not to take a deal. On the word of Awad's family these marines were detained in chains. Tough way for our boys to fight.
Our brave men should not be going door to door, day after day, looking for the enemy. They should instead be walking through ruble looking for a few surviving enemies.
I am surprised that since Cpl. Thomas is black the"2 Rev-Crew" circus must see him as an "Uncle Tom" and also hating G Dubba they were very quiet on this case. The LA Times did not post a picture of the Cpl. either.
Buried in the last two paragraphs is the most telling of this heroes character.

"Thomas, who is married with two children, served three tours in Iraq. He was wounded during the battle for Fallouja in December 2004 and received the Purple Heart.Master Sgt. Keith Backmann, his voice breaking, told jurors that Thomas refused to be evacuated after being wounded and continued to fight the insurgents. "That tells you a lot about his character," he said."

Russia: An A For Effort...And Energy
At least the Russians are willing to explore for new energy sources. Heck, tree huggers and politicians on both sides here in the states refuse to allow new drilling for oil and gas off our coast and in Alaska. It reveals the mixed up priorities of some who would put national security and cheap resources in the back seat behind the misguided notion that by tapping our natural resources we some how damage our environment. Here is the article and a line or two.
http://news.independent.co.uk/sci_tech/article2831111.ece
Russia has fired the first diplomatic shot in a really cold war. The new oil rush has been galvanised by the accelerated shrinking of the polar ice cap because of global warming, which has allowed exploration that had been previously unthinkable because of the extreme conditions.
Russia claims that the Lomonosov Ridge, an underwater mountain range crossing the polar region, is an extension of its territory. The UN has rejected Moscow's 2001 claim to the ocean bed, which it says is part of its continental shelf under international law but the Russians are due to resubmit their case to the committee administering the Law of the Sea.
A brains trust of 135 Russian scientists, led by a 68-year-old personal envoy of President Vladimir Putin, the explorer Artur Chilingarov, plan to map out part of the 1,240-mile ridge.
But yesterday's scientific achievement of dropping a titanium capsule containing the Russian flag on to the seabed could not conceal the political advantage gained by Mr Putin. Once again, he has demonstrated to the West Russia's determination to expand its energy empire.

Lib's Insanity Is Killing England
I recently posted this on The Hive a community blog located at mod.bee.com.
London's mayor sounds a lot like his American Lib bro's and sis's. Notice the sly "It is our fault line.....

"At the same time he criticized Britain over its ties with Saudi Arabia, which he said had fuelled intolerance in the past through its Wahhabist form of Islam, creating a "major problem."
"They have played a good and active and growing role in creating a multi-cultural society," he added
"Damn it Jim, I am a doctor not an Islamo-Terrorist!" Well, I guess Bone's line to Kirk was a little different. Check out the new and improved educate islamic thugs....doctors! Here is a link and a line....

SIX of the eight people arrested over a suspected al-Qaeda plot to detonate car bombs in London and Scotland are doctors, including one arrested as he tried to leave Australia, British media reported today.
Seven people arrested so far in Great Britain include an Iraqi doctor trained in Baghdad, a Jordanian neurosurgeon, an Indian medic, and a Lebanese man, The Guardian reported today.
It said five of the seven were doctors working and training in the National Health Service, and that all seven were foreign-born nationals.
The neurosurgeon, Mohammed Asha, 26, is currently believed by counter-terrorism investigators to have been the ringleader of the cell, it said.
Here is an article that is very interesting. The EU is telling England and others not to say muslim and islam. What a load of crap. Calling a spade... a spade is exactly what needs to be done. Treating muslim extremist kindly is a huge mistake, but progressives of the world are ignorant fools that will get many a good person killed. As the rise of islam continues the ones that are number one their list to convert and control are "progressives" Everything Progs hold dear will be gone, along with their heads.

Secret EU guidelines have been drawn up warning governments not to link Islam and terrorism.
The politically correct directives are believed to be behind ministers not using words such as “Muslim’’ about Britain’s terrorism crisis.
Yesterday the Daily Express reported how Gordon Brown’s ministers had been told to avoid inflammatory language when speaking about the attempted car bomb attacks in London and Glasgow.
Neither the Prime Minister in a major interview nor Home Secretary Jacqui Smith in the Commons referred to Muslims or Islam.
Last night critics pointed to a classified EU document sent out to all European governments offering “non-offensive’’ phrases to use when discussing terrorism.
Banned terms were said to include “jihad’’, “Islamic’’ or “fundamentalist”.

Illegal Labor Ain't Cheap
This article from 2005 shows that it cost legal taxpaying Americans a fortune every year to educate and give medical care to those who do not belong here. Of course, there are a few progressive thinkers who believe that rewarding criminals is a good thing, but they are also the ones that think socialism is great.
http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/immigrationnaturalizatio/a/caillegals.htm
"A new study from the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) examines the costs of education, health care and incarceration of illegal aliens, and concludes that the costs to Californians is $10.5 billion per year.
Among the key finding of the report are that the state's already struggling K-12 education system spends approximately $7.7 billion a year to school the children of illegal aliens who now constitute 15 percent of the student body. Another $1.4 billion of the taxpayers' money goes toward providing health care to illegal aliens and their families, the same amount that is spent incarcerating illegal aliens criminals.
"California's addiction to 'cheap' illegal alien labor is bankrupting the state and posing enormous burdens on the state's shrinking middle class tax base," stated Dan Stein, President of FAIR. "Most Californians, who have seen their taxes increase while public services deteriorate, already know the impact that mass illegal immigration is having on their communities, but even they may be shocked when they learn just how much of a drain illegal immigration has become."...."Nineteen ninety-four was the same year that California voters rebelled and overwhelmingly passed Proposition 187, which sought to limit liability for mass illegal immigration. Since then, state and local governments have blatantly ignored the wishes of the voters and continued to shell out publicly financed benefits on illegal aliens,"

Al's Big Sham
Good ol' Al still out there producing his own gas of lies. Here is an article that I am sure he will not even acknowledge. His concerts were also a flop!
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=070705191403.gahmdtoi&show_article=1
"Scientists who probed two kilometers (1.2 miles) through a Greenland glacier to recover the oldest plant DNA on record said Thursday the planet was far warmer hundreds of thousands of years ago than is generally believed.
DNA of trees, plants and insects including butterflies and spiders from beneath the southern Greenland glacier was estimated to date to 450,000 to 900,000 years ago, according to the remnants retrieved from this long-vanished boreal forest.
That contrasts sharply with the prevailing view that a lush forest of this kind could only have existed in Greenland as recently as 2.4 million years ago, according to a summary of the study, which is published Thursday in the journal Science.
The samples suggest the temperature probably reached 10 degrees C (50 degrees Fahrenheit) in the summer and -17 C (1 F) in the winter."

"Live Earth has been branded a foul-mouthed flop.
Organisers of the global music concert - punctuated by swearing from presenters and performers - had predicted massive viewing figures.
But BBC's live afternoon television coverage attracted an average British audience of just 900,000."....
"Critics said however that the public had simply snubbed what they saw as a hypocritical event.
Musicians including Bob Geldof, Roger Daltrey and the Pet Shop Boys pointed out that a concert highlighting climate change had itself generated huge carbon emissions."

Illegal Aliens Continue to Kill on the Streets
For those who refuse to deport these criminals..shame on you. Innocent men, women and children are being killed and what is sad it that it is preventable. No illegal alien behind the wheel equals a living breathing American working, playing and loving their family.
www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=55440
"If Luciano Melendres had been deported to Mexico following his 2006 arrest for driving drunk – or even if a judge last week hadn't suspended his six-month jail sentence and given him 12 months probation – Dacus Lamont Sims, 32, would be alive today.
As it is, Melendres is back in jail for a second offense, this time charged with DWI, felony hit-and-run, driving with a license revoked, not having insurance and a registration violation, the Charlotte, North Carolina, Observer reported.
Sims, who was hit while crossing a Charlotte street earlier this week, died at the scene".... "If this gentleman is an illegal immigrant, and he was charged with DWI, why did they not deport him?"

Are You A.....
Conservative, Liberal, or Southerner!!!! From an e-mail I received.
Are you a Liberal, Conservative, or Southerner?
Here is a little test that will help you decide.
The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children.
Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife,and charges
at you.
You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot.
You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?
...........
Liberal's Answer
Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
Does the man look poor! Or oppressed?
Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
What does the law say about this situation?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway,
and what kind of message does
this send to society and to my children?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
Should I call 9-1-1?
Why is this street so deserted?
We need to raise taxes, have paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
