Mixed war news


How is the war against the Jihadists going? Swings and roundabouts, really. On the one hand, Iraq looks to be more or less stable, Australia foils a Jihadist attack on an army base, and the Coalition is still pounding away at the Talaeban despite British equipment problems and foot-dragging NATO (for want of a better word) "allies". On the other hand, Yale University Press publishes a book on the Danish cartoons without the cartoons and burkinis are required even for infidels at British swimming pools.

With so many in the West so eager to surrender I sometimes wonder why the Jihadists even bother to plant bombs any more.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
