Bill Roggio has another report on the progress of Canadian Forces in Afghanistan;
The battle group receive their orders: the Zari and Panjwai regions south of Highway 1 are to be swept of large concentrations of Taliban believed to be in the area. Charlie Company and the Afghan National Army are the hammer, and Bravo Company and the Afghan National Police are the anvil, setting up blocking positions in an effort to seal the Taliban’s escape. Taliban commander Mullah Dadullah and two other senior leaders are thought to be in the area. Intelligence indicated the Taliban are armed with small arms, RPGs and mortars and there is the possibility an anti aircraft gun and even Stinger antiaircraft missiles are in their possession.
[…]
On Sunday, the battle group broke from lunch and proceeded east to begin the operation. The Canadian effort is part of an overarching operation called Mountain Thrust, which is designed to decrease the Taliban’s influence and military power throughout southeastern Afghanistan. Military operations are followed with an increased security presence and aid programs designed to win back local support. Mountain Thrust has been in action for several weeks now in Zabul, Helmand Kandahar and Uruzgan provinces. Over the past few days, Mullah Omar’s brother in law, Mullah Amanullah, was killed along with fourteen other Taliban fighters in Uruzgan. Ten Taiban were killed in the Sangin district of Helmand province
Bill’s work in the field is especially valuable, for it frees a Canadian media already stretched thin covering both the death watch and weekly opinion polling on the Canadian mood towards Conservative warmongering.
Publishing the battle plans of Canadian Forces on the internet is helping their cause how? How would Canadian soldiers have fared on Juno Beach, Vimy Ridge, and Kapyong Hill with media coverage like this? God bless our troops, may they all come home safe.

Someone mentioned the hand gestures. Where was the outrage at Parrish’s foot gestures as in stomping a Bush doll, or her mouth gestures when she said I hate those bastards. I remember the Finger by trudeau and his fuddle duddle. Harper hosted a garden party for the press last night. Did anyone go, they had all kinds of excuses re deadlines etc. Can’t find any mention of it in the papers this am.
Jim,
After the battle of Trench, Mohammad personally supervised the beheading of more than 600 Jewish men for the crime of refusing to join his army of butchers. He then taught his soldiers the finer points of rapine and unleashed them on the dead mens wifes and daughters. Afterwards he sold them all into slavery. He also married a six year old girl – Aisha – which was consummated when she turned 9.
And steve(duh),
Good point, huh? Oh, and of course the evil Christians have to be compared, as usual.
The Mohammadans strive to be like their prophet. Christians strive to be like Christ. Now lets look at both based on established evidence and historical fact:
Mohammad in words and deeds was a mass murdering, thieving, pedophile.
Christ in words and deeds preached peace and to love your enemy.
I’d say the Mohammadans are doing a far better job of following in their masters footsteps. Wouldn’t you?
History = Culture = Destiny (and by the way, Islam doesn’t mean peace, it means submission)
Apologies Kate, just can’t let misinformation go uncontested, especially when the LSM is already doing it.
From the quran.
“I have not seen any one more deficient in intelligence and religion than you women.”
Funny that’s exactly what I was thinking about the supposed author of the quran…
Here’s a column that just begs for it’s own thread – the truth finally comes out despite the leftards denials!

Ldd,
Making up quotes from your version of the Koran is really a simpleton thing to do. I have not provided “misinformation” about the Koran. If you want to join Irwin (and his “evidence”) and group all Muslims together, then I’m sure your ignorance won’t be bliss.
Now, I’m sure you’ll be tempted to reply with another insult or simple answer as you have done recently. Just know that it doesn’t prove your point any better. It is not difficult to have an open-minded logical conversation, but as soon as it starts reaching low levels, it’s done.

hee hee you wish!
That’s your assertion, I claim no such thing. Sometimes the cold hard facts are just to hard to beleive.
In that case, please provide the chapter and verse then.
