#2 This REALLY makes me mad. I know the timing is wrong...but I hope we are squeezing the nuts of the mada mullahs behind the scenes. I really want to see all of those black hats eat a 338 for breakfast.

#3 I think you'll be happy in the end - I believe they'll be eating TLAMS when the time comes.

#4 As far as the reconnaisance/saboteurs captured by the FBI, if and when hostilities commence, we should remember how we used to deal with them:

#5 bin laden, with his al qaeda organization, proved to iran that there can be a way for islam to register a profound, worldwide effect.

I believe that Iran thinks it can shore up the islamists under one umbrella. It has the money, it has the credibility (since it is a theocracy itself) and it has the will.

With al qaeda in disrepair at the moment, Iran, I believe, feels it can assume the leadership position that is currently missing. No doubt they think they can do it better. All it needs to do is to gather a little intelligence, spew a little hatred, organize a little and voila! -- a newly invigorated, worldwide, islamist terror apparatus.

I'll bet these guys just about drooling at the prospect of taking over for what bin laden started.

And this evidence is just the tip of the iceberg. They simply got sloppy because they hate Israel soooo much, and their zeal made them easy to spot. I just wonder what else they're plotting.

#6 I'm sure they are plotting as we are plotting. We will see little bits of data like this from time to time. We will have to run it through the sieves and anal-yzers to see what is real and what is posterior originated smoke.

I am sure we have alot going on behind the scenes. Unfortunately we will hear nothing until it happens, which is good. We sure as hell shouldn't tell our senators, or that would be like talking into a megaphone.

We wanted to win WWII. I'm not sure we want to win this war. We're more interested in having a sufficiently sensitive Secretary of War than in victory.

#8 Everyone in Congress in particular seems too concerned with making sure they can get Donald Rumsfeld to pay for their past decade and a half of bad decisions with regard to the defense budget.
