CBC radio this morning urgently reports another Canadian death. It then reminds us precisely how many have died, including those in road accidents. It then goes on to list all Canadians casualties over the last two weeks.
Then it announces a Taliban internet message “to call for the Afghan people to fight the foreign invader” or some such.
Given that very few Afghan people are likely to be on the internet, this message was clearly aimed at people who are: Canadians for example. Therefore, the CBC is purveying enemy propaganda.

CAIR Says ADL Seeks to Hinder Legal Rights of U.S. Muslims
Pro-Israel group ‘smears’ coalition advocating due process for Texas Muslim charity
A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group today accused the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of seeking to hinder the due process rights of American Muslims by using “smears and exclusionary tactics” that exploit growing Islamophobia in American society.
The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said those smears appeared in a recent ADL news release targeting members of a coalition defending the legal rights of officials of the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) Muslim charity currently on trial in Texas. In its release, the ADL falsely claimed that members of the coalition have been “tainted by their own murky associations with radical organizations and individuals.”
A CAIR statement issued today in reaction to the ADL’s allegations said:
“It is regrettable that the Anti-Defamation League, which claims to defend American civil liberties, would seek to exploit the growing level of Islamophobia in our society by using the same smears and exclusionary tactics that have in the past been used by anti-Semites to target the Jewish community.
I think everyone should read David Frum’s column in yesterday’s national post. To me it points out where the leftovers would eventually have us all wind up.

“Russia restores Soviet-era strategic bomber patrols – Putin-1
18:08 | 17/ 08/ 2007
Print version
(Recasts, adds Putin quotes, details in paragraphs 3-7)
CHEBARKUL (Urals), August 17 (RIA Novosti) – President Vladimir Putin said Russia permanently resumed Friday long-distance patrol flights of strategic bombers, which were suspended in 1992 after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
“I made a decision to restore flights of Russian strategic bombers on a permanent basis, and at 00:00 today, August 17, 14 strategic bombers, support aircraft and aerial tankers were deployed. Combat duty has begun, involving 20 aircraft.”
The president, speaking on the final day of military exercises involving Russia, China, and four Central Asian countries in the south Urals, said that on the first day of patrol flight, bomber planes would spend about 20 hours in the air, with midair refueling, and would interact with naval forces.”
If I hear any more Leftard sophistry about American “imperialism” when this remobilizing of the communist empires joint war machine is going on, I’ll bitch slap them back to reality.

unintentionally cutting between the mom and the cubs, and as a result mom

carrying bear spray. But I bet they don’t do it in person.

Was it just part of the boyscout-ification of our armed forces?
Yeah. wait for it, Jack-in-the-box and Asshat Dion will be popping up on a screen near you to blame Harper for the latest casualty in Afghanistan.
BC Conservative, it was the Mulroney govt that sold the Chinooks. They envisioned using EH101 is a tactical role and decided to get rid of the tactical airlift. Alas, Chretien cancelled the EH101, so nothing at all. Mulroney was just another long line of PMs who decimated the military, allowing it to rust out time and time again. He started to do something about it with the helicopter purchase, but in 93 after election, Chretien ensured our path of negligence continued. We have yet to see a replacement for the replacement to this day. No doubt EH101s would have come in very handy in Afghanistan.
Asshat Denie Cadour “Defence Critic” beat Taliban Jack and Dion to the media sqwaking about the soldier that was killed. The MSM are going on about the “Famed ” Van Doo regiment. What are they famous for, are the more famous than say the LDSH,PPCLI,RCR,RCD or any other CANADIAN Regiment? Check out any battle honours I would bet that they are no beter or worse than of the other CANADIAN units.
Just in case anyone didn’t read it at Kathy Shaidle’s, from worldnetdaily, this exchange between a lawyer representing a website owner and Dean Steacy, an investigator for the Canadian Human Rights Commission:
Kulaszka: “Mr. Steacy, you were talking before about context and how important it is when you do your investigation. What value do you give freedom of speech when you investigate one of these complaints?”
Steacy: “Freedom of speech is an American concept, so I don’t give it any value.”
Kulaszka: “Okay. That was a clear answer.”
Steacy: “It’s not my job to give value to an American concept.”
The Van Doos, what their fame is above and beyond any other regiment at any given battle, at any given time is no doubt documented and as a fighting force.
The Lefty MSM constantly refer to them as the “famed” Van Doos, they’re a fighting force so it’s hard to fathom how the Lefty Media can sing their praises when they’re all in Peace Keeping mode.
The big story is it’s a Quebec Regiment and it’s been widely reported that when Quebec soldiers start getting killed, Harper will take the fall in Quebec. Never mind it’s a Chretien/Liberal mission in the first place. This is the first tour of Afghanistan duty for them.
If the Quebec regiment is trained as combat soldiers,and are sent to a combat zone, they will have to fight and some may get killed, that’s war.
Otherwise, we’re training toy soldiers in Quebec and the regiments from the rest of the Canadian regiments can be the real thing.
God, the stupidity of the media wags in this country, boggles the mind.
I agree that the Mulroney gov’t was as harmful to the military as any librano regime. I mean, joe who, flora and the rest. Pure red tories. Us true conservatives/libertarians joined the reform party for a reason. Please tell us something we do not know.
