With Little Fanfare, The Iraq War Ends

Iran Actually Hacked America's RQ-170 Spy Drone

This is looking bad, folks.  Reports initially said that Iran had shot down one of  America’s RQ-170 spy drones (the type of drone that was used to provide real-time data during the Osama Bin Laden raid).  And to be honest with you, that’s what we wish would have happened.  Instead, it looks like Iran actually [...]

Rep. Ron Paul: Sanctions on Iran are "an act of war"

Paul tell [...]

Will Iraq Be Obama's Gift To Iran?

What Happened and WHY It Happened President Barack Obama announced Friday, October 21, 2011, that the remaining thirty-nine thousand troops will leave Iraq at the end of the year.

The Cult of Excuse

Life is not fair. Anyone who has ever dealt with a government institution knows that government is inevitably less fair.

This idea of fairness has evolved into something particularly despicable recently, [...]

With Friends Like These…

Since the beginning of the War on Terror, the United States has taken on the task of forming hostile nations into allies in the Middle East. The best analogy I can think of to currently describe the way things have gone is likening our nation building efforts to the comic strip “Peanuts”. The nations that [...]

Now, an unverifiable report in the New York Times alleges that Erik Prince has [...]

Ahmadinejad Forced to take a Demotion or Resign

Word on the street is that Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is being forced to step down by the Ayatollah. While it couldn’t happen to a nicer guy, the real question is why.. now? First, the reports are coming from an unconfirmed second-hand source. This examiner.com article makes the claim: A few minutes ago on May 5, [...]

Middle East set to explode: Obama’s Failure to Support Israel Complicating the Situation

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: And [...]
