From AFP: US warplanes have violated Iranian airspace in the southwestern oil province of Khuzestan, the Arabic language channel of Iranian state television quoted a local military chief as saying on Sunday. However, a US military spokesman said he had checked into reports of an airspace violation and denied that any took place. “Two US aircraft trespassed into Iranian airspace northwest of (the port city of) Abadan before flying southwest

One step forward, two steps back for Brits trying to come to grips with the pernicious boutique multiculturalism the left intelligensia has insinuated into the European social fabric like so much razor wire.  Now, amazingly, horrifically, and—worst of all—dangerously, the Brits, in order to appease the “sensibilities” of Muslims, are willing to treat history itself as if it is a seminar in “tolerance”.  From the UK Daily Mail: Schools are

…rub a little dirt on the khaki’s, and when they ask you about the ‘surge,’ try to mock it with your ‘Eastwood eyes.’ McCain may have been a POW, but remember:  YOU’VE broken bread with real-live insurgents.  Hell, were Chuck Norris to cross you, you’d roll him over and bugger him like a horny koala.  Now, ready?  LET’S GO EAT SOME NAILS…!”* **** update:  “…And wash them down with a

From Powerline, a particularly dire assessment of the situation in Iraq, purportedly from a Human Intelligence collector (no name is given, so I’m going to take it at face value): We want to succeed in Iraq. Because we want to succeed we continually look for ways and opportunities to contribute. This desire to succeed also spawns an eternal optimism that maybe somehow someway things will get better. Wanting to succeed

From the New York Times: “ZOO,” the new film by the Seattle director Robinson Devor, arrived at this year’s Sundance Film Festival better known as “the horse sex documentary.” But as festival audiences discovered, this description, while not incorrect, was also misleading. The film revisits the true story of a man who died in July 2005 after a sexual encounter with a horse in rural Washington State but does so

The Sorosphere is trying to make a story out of Andrea Mitchel’’s comment on Sunday’s Chris Matthews Show that that Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, met “very recently” with the Senate Republican caucus to discuss their strategy on Iraq legislation. I suspect this story will fizzle.  Folks in the mass media do not want to discuss whether Mitchell’s offhand TV comments can be trusted.  And if

As you may remember, Jeff had intimated that he might be ceasing blogging regularly, due to a variety of circumstances.  Yesterday I inked a contract to purchase Protein Wisdom, after a long period of negotiation that unfortunately probably increased the strain in Jeff’s life (and mine).  Jeff will still be posting whenever the mood strikes him, and I’ll be relying on him for his expertise.  Inevitably, this will mean that

And you’ll never find me dating Dan Collins, or anyone like him ever again. I hope I’m able to meet someone who is really and truly available, and I want to be the same way if that time ever comes. Meh.  I can live with it.

*****Now Officially a “Flap”***** When Perugina, the Italian chocolate company that invented “baci,” chocolate kisses, expanded its repertoire to include chocolate vaginas (“peruvagine”), feminist outrage was swift and sure.  “It’s an insult to women,” said Amanda Marcotte of the website Pandagon.  “It represents an idealized image of the female sex organs, including a highly visible clitoris.  In point of fact, most men cannot find that article without guidance.” NOW was

****Cross-Posted from Bloody Scott**** Notorious for his admissions of not getting any, Ace of Spades reveals that he is in fact the inventor of pooter. One can only marvel that Al Gore prides himself on having invented the internet, considering the extraordinary impact of pooter on the recent development of societies worldwide. For example, Pooter Geek would never have been possible had it not been for this adventitious achievement. Of
