A Split In The Jihad Movement? Some interesting, and little reported activities in Waziristan and the Pakistan/Afghanistan border: You may remember a couple of months ago a report that al Qaeda and its affiliates had abandoned their training camps in Pakistan along the Afghan border. The initial report caused quite a blog storm but soon the mystery was forgotten. According to AI, which links to references for all of this, the US got fed up with not being able to reach al Qaeda inside Pakistan. Then a few months back the US government told the Pakistani government that we had the coordinates for twenty-nine terror training bases and in a week we will be destroying them (perhaps on Cheney's visit this summer). The intent was to drive the terrorists from those camps so we could get to them. I blame George Bush. Posted by Rand Simberg at September 29, 2007 11:57 AMTrackBack URL for this entry:

Mr. Simberg, I agree. I blame President Bush, too. This latest report is a clear indication of the failure of our President's policies to: -- get Osama bin Laden; Our President should redeploy our dope-smoking draftees in Iraq to Okinawa, and use them to provide a "rapid" reaction force for future use against the rebellious provinces of the American Empire. Like, say, the Duchy of Muscovy. Posted by MG at September 29, 2007 12:14 PM"when their terror camps were targeted by the US they had nowhere else to go" Awwwwww, da' poor babies. Posted by Barbara Skolaut at September 29, 2007 08:35 PMSounds Like Rand is Declaring Vicotry in the war on Al-Qaeda, what is that Victory number 57? Wow, so we won WWII at Midway, and 80 times after that? Looks like anon has a reading comprehension problem and probably lacks critical thinking skills as well. Posted by Bill Maron at September 30, 2007 05:22 AM"Probably" Bill? How about obviously. Posted by Cecil Trotter at September 30, 2007 06:06 AMSounds Like Rand is Declaring Vicotry in the war on Al-Qaeda It only sounds like that to morons. The rest of us can read for comprehension.

Posted by anonymous at September 29, 2007 09:01 PM Geez, is channeling Brian Squidwardski? IT's the Good News Explosion Posted by anonymous at September 30, 2007 11:04 AMBased upon the latest reporting we lost 40% of Afghanistan Good work Guys. Kandahar is in indian country. Posted by anonymous at October 1, 2007 08:36 AMI read this article the other day and it is certainly good news. Unfortunately I can't determine just how accurate it is. I read another article recently that described the brilliant job Al Quaida and the Taliban are doing with propaganda and psy-ops in Pakistan. According to that one, significant portions of the Pakistani army are simply no longer willing to engage Taliban forces and Musharif is being forced to abandon more territory to them. I read an article yesterday that talked about the shellacking the Taliban received during this year's Spring and Summer fighting. Then you read others that claim significant portions of Afghanistan are under Taliban control. Which is true? I know which set of stories I want to believe but sitting here in Houston I really have no way of evaluating them. Post a comment |
