A MYOPTIC CLAIRVOYANCE . . .


    . . . Alan Caruba shares brilliant insight with us from his most excellent blog WARNING SIGNS:


    ". . . Egyptians, ten years or less into the future, might look back at his thirty years of dictatorship as 'the good old days.' "

    ". . . the Central Intelligence Agency . . . I seriously doubt could predict tomorrow’s weather. Reportedly, the news of Mubarak’s decision to step down came to the current CIA Director, Leon Panetta, from CNN.

    . . . they (the CIA) were taken completely by surprise when both Pakistan and India achieved nuclear weapon parity. I can even recall the debacle of the Cuban Bay of Pigs invasion. The fall of the Berlin Wall was a happy surprise . . ."


    Alan obliquely refers to a salient point I made in THE STORMBRINGER CONTROVERSY:

    "So it is left to imbeciles in the news media to tell us what is happening, why it is happening, and what is likely to happen.

    That’s how we ended up with Walter Cronkite reporting from Saigon that Tet was a huge defeat for the American forces when it was, in fact, a huge victory or Dan Rather’s utterly false report about George W. Bush’s National Guard history . . .

    Since the late 1980s, this mush-for-brains crowd has been telling us that global warming was real . . ."

    You gotta love it. I wish I could crank out brilliance like this even once a week but I'm a soldier - even in what I do now - not a journalist and the sad fact of the matter is there are only so many hours in a day, only so many days in a week. Necessity being the Mother of Invention, therefore, it is with great fanfare that Blog STORMBRINGER proudly presents:


    (drum roll)

    "Ta-D-A-H-H-H-!-!-!"


    BLOG ROLL:

    What is with this government? Every day there is another slur on American Culture, American Values. This time the agency is NASA . . .

    With allies like this who needs enemies?


    American Thinker Blog: Afghan Red Cross worker with one leg set to be hanged for conversion to Christianity
    Take note - this is happening in a regime that we prop up with billions of U.S. dollars and the lifeblood of thousands of our soldiers. Does anybody know the outcome of this outrage?

    This story comes from NPR no less . . .


    Iraqi Christians Flee Mosul after Series of Murders

    Sad to say; Christians had a better deal under Saddam Hussein than under the current management . . .


    Haunted by violence, Iraqi Christians flee to Turkey
    Judeo-Christian-based politics are better than Islam any day of the week.


    52 Iraqi Christians killed by al Qaeda after raid on church
    FACT: Christianity is the single most persecuted religion on Earth.





    If nothing else, this is a brilliant way to include politics without turning STORMBRINGER into a political site . . . same way I managed to incorporate the North American version of a Page Three Girl* . . .

HOMEMADE HELMETS IN EGYPT

    (Daily Mail)- Desperate times call for desperate measures. The anti-Mubarak protesters in Tahrir Square have resorted to a variety of headgear – at times comical – to protect themselves in the pitched street battles.

    Stones are the preferred weapon in this Old Testament-style fight within the Egyptian capital and the protesters have made use of whatever lies closest to hand.

EGYTIAN RIOTERS SACK & LOOT ANTIQUITIES MUSEUM

    MUMMIES DECAPITATED IN AN ATTEMPT TO STEAL KING TUT's TREASURES




    Egyptian police step up guard at its national monuments today after looters break into the National Museum in an attempt to steal King Tut's treasures including King Tut's gold funeral mask.




    While in the museum the looters smashed and broke many of the museums irreplaceable statues and historical pieces including beheading two 2,0000 year old mummies destroying them. Many of the display cases were destroyed and the contents are missing.

    Egypt’s top archaeologist, Zahi Hawass, told state television Egyptians on the street had tried to protect the building, but that the looters had entered from above. “I felt deeply sorry . . . when I came this morning to the Egyptian Museum and found that some had tried to raid the museum by force last night,” Hawass, chairman of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, said.
