Iran's Ramazan Corps and the ratlines into Iraq - The Long War Journal

Iran's Ramazan Corps and the ratlines into Iraq - The Long War Journal: "Tribal militias in Wasit province formed to help secure the Iranian border. 'The leader of the Migasees tribe here in Wasit province, acknowledged tribal leaders have discussed creating a brigade of young men trained by the Americans to bolster local security as well as help patrol the border with Iran,' the Associated Press reported. Tribal militias are forming in Maysan and Basrah provinces, Multination Forces Iraq told The Long War Journal in a recent inquiry on the status of the Concerned Local Citizens forces currently forming nationwide.
Iran’s complicity with the Iraqi insurgency has been a problem since the Coalition invasion of Iraq in March 2003. It was only in late 2006 that the US began to address this problem seriously. Whether Iranian intervention in Iraq is increasing, decreasing, or unchanged, Coalition and Iraqi forces must continue military and counterterrorism operations against the Ramazan Corps inside Iraq. While there have been several reports of Coalition special forces conducting raids inside Iran these accounts are unconfirmed. The Iraqi and Coalition governments must continue to pressure Iran both militarily and diplomatically to halt its terror operations inside Iraq in order for the central government to gain stronger control of the security of the country as a whole."

Hitler in modern middle east

PMW - Latest Bulletins: "This text is just part of the official Palestinian radio Ramadan quiz that was rebroadcast this past week, whose hero was Hitler. The full broadcast presents Hitler heroically, detailing his 2 Medals' of Honor in World War 1, his rise to power, his launching of World War 2 and specifies country after country that he conquered. His victories in 1940 are coined 'his golden year', while his defeat and death are coined: 'his bitter end.' Not surprisingly, though citing his victories and 'bitter' fall in great detail, the Holocaust is not mentioned. This is consistent with Palestinian education in general which erases the Holocaust from history. See recent full PMW report and bulletin on new 12th grade Palestinian history schoolbook, in which many pages are dedicated to the history of World War 2 and even to Nazi racism, but neither Jews nor the Holocaust are mentioned."

Flaws in the Iran Report

John Bolton comes out firing with both barrels! If you believed this NIE, after reading this you will have doubts. Why WAS the National Intelligence Estimate written by diplomats instead of intelligence analysts? Why was this handled by people who all dislike to upset terrorists? Something smells like Clinton around here...

Collactive: GIYUS.org - Flaws in the Iran Report: "Rarely has a document from the supposedly hidden world of intelligence had such an impact as the National Intelligence Estimate released this week. Rarely has an administration been so unprepared for such an event. And rarely have vehement critics of the 'intelligence community' on issues such as Iraq's weapons of mass destruction reversed themselves so quickly. All this shows that we not only have a problem interpreting what the mullahs in Tehran are up to, but also a more fundamental problem: Too much of the intelligence community is engaging in policy formulation rather than 'intelligence' analysis, and too many in Congress and the media are happy about it. President Bush may not be able to repair his Iran policy (which was not rigorous enough to begin with) in his last year, but he would leave a lasting legacy by returning the intelligence world to its proper function."

U.S. Intel Possibly Duped by Iran

I am glad that so many people have seen the 'flaws', if not outright lies, in this NIE. Read this to see many of them pointed out!

Newsmax.com - U.S. Intel Possibly Duped by Iran: "The NIE opined that the new assessment leads to the policy conclusion that the United States should offer “some combination of threats of intensified international scrutiny and pressures, along with opportunites,” in order to lock in Iranian good behavior. This carrot and stick approach has been the State Department’s preferred policy for the past 27 years, and has only strengthened the resolve of Iran’s leaders to continue defying the United States. “Those [countries that] assume that decaying methods such as psychological war, political propaganda and the so-called economic sanctions would work and prevent Iran's fast drive toward progress are mistaken,' Ahmadinejad said in Tehran in September at a military parade. By “progress” Ahmadinejad was referring to Iran’s recently-declared success at enriching uranium."

Israeli-Arab men brutally rape 'dirty Jew'

Yes, the Pallys need a state, just to lock them away in. A huge jail with three walls and a partial roof. Let them head into Arab lands if they want, or fire rockets into Arab lands. The Arabs won't tolerate this kind of stupidity!

Israeli-Arab men brutally rape 'dirty Jew': "A group of young Israeli-Arab men recently attacked and raped two intoxicated Jewish teenage girls near the coastal city of Netanya, the Israeli police released for publication on Sunday. The shocking attack took place two weeks ago, when the six Arab men happened upon the two Jewish girls as they sat drinking late at night in a public square in Netanya. According to Ynet, the girls resisted the men's advances, but were soon after were compelled, either physically or due to their inebriated state, to enter their assailants' vehicle. The girls were then driven to a nearby beach where one managed to escape or avoid being raped. The second girl was not so lucky, and though nearly unconscious, was beaten, raped and sodomized repeatedly by the young Arabs as they called her a 'dirty Jew.' All six men have reportedly been arrested, and at least one has confessed to the attack after being presented with DNA evidence connecting him to the crime."
