5 convicted of plotting to kill Fort Dix soldiers

Well a jury has convicted five muslims of plotting to kill U.S. soldiers at Fort Dix. The jury deliberated for six days before reaching the guilty verdict.

The yearlong investigation began after a clerk at a Circuit City store told the FBI that some customers had asked him to transfer onto DVD some video footage of them firing assault weapons and screaming about jihad.

The FBI then used two informants to infiltrate the gang and gather information. The defendant's lawyers, muslims and liberals are all screaming entrapment. They believe the government created the conspiracy with their informants. The five defendants bought guns and went to Pennsylvania to train. They also purchased and watched "inspirational" jihad videos. Muslims leaders insist that the men were just joking.

"I don't think they actually mean to do anything," said Mohamed Younes, president of the American Muslim Union. "I think they were acting stupid, like they thought the whole thing was a joke."

Overall this article from AP plays up the role of the FBI informants and points out the overall general failure of the U.S. to prosecute domestic terrorists in other cases. It is obvious who they are rooting for quoting one of the defendants' mother telling everyone what a good boy her son and his friends are. Maybe the jury didn't buy it seeing how willing the good ole Muslim boys were to consider killing U.S. soldiers even as a joke.

9/11 Lest We Forget

It was seven years ago today that terrorists attacked us by flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and flight 93 which was thought to be headed for Washington D.C. but was stopped by the brave passengers.

Ann Coulter had a great article today pointing out that there has not been a subsequent 9/11 type attack since President Bush started the war on terror.  And that is an important point.  Many American civilians lost their lives seven years ago but not a single one since.  And for that I am very grateful and thankful.  Thankful for the American soldiers who paid the price to ensure no more of their countrymen would would die as a victim of a cowardly attack or as a hero trying to rescue those who needed help.  Again I say thank you although those words are hardly adequate.

I just want everyone who reads this to take a moment and reflect on what price was paid and the benefit we have reaped for seven years because of it.  Then I want you to think of the liberal moonbats who want to get into office who don't believe in the war on terror, who think we are wasting our time in  Iraq and who refuse to acknowledge the role President Bush and his administration has played in keeping America safe for these past seven years. Think about them and remember them in November.

He's Getting Senile

Fox News reports: Palestinians: Carter Achieved Nothing which is what everyone said would happen. Carter is now claiming that SOS Dr. Rice never told him NOT to go, coming short of saying she lied about her statement. Hmmm. Everyone said it was counter productive and would undermine the efforts in palestinian relations but there was no clear signal from the state department that he shouldn't do it? I think Jimmy needs to be put out to his peanut pasture. What part of "It's a bad idea all around" did he fail to grasp? How infantile do you have to be to believe that when everybody tells you something is wrong, you still get to make the judgement call based on your own thinking that everything will be all right?

Now the legitimate palestinian spokesman has labeled Carter's trip a failure, accomlishing nothing. What do you want to bet it doesn't sink in to James Earl's thick skull? Up there in CloudCooCooLand where he apparently resides he is just basking in the warmth of his success and greatness. He'll probably want another Nobel Peace Prize.

So Why Is He Meeting With Terrorists Again?

Carter-Hamas Meeting Comes on 25th Anniversary of Deadly Terror Attack
So Governor Carter is at it again. (If you're a liberal and just took offense at me referring to James Earl as Governor, instead of Former President, you should learn the proper forms of address for EX-presidents.)  Yet against the wishes of the state department and members of congress Carter met with Hamas chief Khaled Meshal.

The U.S. State Department twice advised Carter against meeting Hamas leaders before he left on his Mideast trip earlier this week. More than 50 members of Congress also urged Carter not to meet Meshal, saying it would confer legitimacy on the group behind some 250 homicide bombings that have killed numerous Israelis.

Hamas officials say the meetings have lent their group legitimacy which means JEC is successfully undermining our efforts against Hamas and terrorism. Why? What does he think he is doing?  Well according to him he is laying the groundwork for Israeli-Palestinian peace. I guess memories of his Nobel Prize have lulled him into a sense of adequacy.  No one but Carter will talk to Hamas so how then does he think he will usher in this great dialog? The man is so full of himself it makes me ill.

On a cultural note I did write a Haiku about him for Haiku Friday on my other blog.

Jimmy E. Carter
The worst President ever
Please just go away.

I also have Haikus about Albert Gore, Barack Hussein Obama and Michelle Obama. Man I was really getting my poem on!
