Snapped Shot

Our favorite li'l Ronery dictator!



Here's a good shot of li'l Kim's office:

Charles at LGF has noted that in England, it's perfectly legal to call for the death of the Pope, but if you happen to dump a pig's head outside a mosque, you've got a world of hurt coming.

Gotta love that selective sleuthing.

The Pope makes a speech which was widely mischaracterized by the press, and used as a tool to fan the flames of Islamic anger. A week of anger ensues, including a very dramatic day of fluffy pillows (AND RAGE), after which the Pope clarifies his remarks and makes nice with a handful of Islamic diplomats.

Yet, after all of that, the head of the Iranian "Guardian Council" (mullahs, in other words) has the audacity to suggest that the Pope has disgraced himself?

Who's the extremist here?

Jannati said on Friday that Pope Benedict's recent remarks that angered Muslims were an 'act of madness' and said the leader of the Catholic Church had 'disgraced himself'.

I don't suppose that the good cleric thinks that the day of "Fluffy Pillows" was an act of madness... After all, madness is all in a day's work for the Religion of Peace (and death threats)!

It seems that now that things in southern Lebanon have started to shake out the way they were predicted to shake out, we're basically left with two groups monitoring the region: The UnTIEd Nations, which couldn't "peacekeep" its way out of a box, and the Israeli Defence Forces, which is doing the best it can to keep missiles away from its civilian populace (and is hamstrung at every step by the previously-mentioned bunch).

So, in light of that, when I saw this shot come across the wires this morning, it brought just a slight hint of a smile to my face. We've seen shots of the United Nations "watching" things down there, and now—the joy!—here we see a shot of the IDF doing some watching of their own.

They're smarter, though. Notice who they're watching?

Yep, that's right. Our "friends," the press.

In light of yesterday's confrontation between the IDF and the French detachment to the UN over a couple of journalists, the hand-wringing was in full force. The press needs to think about this a little harder though—They are electing voluntarily to go into a war zone, and they are actively being supportive of Hezbullah (intentionally or not) by submitting a continuous stream of positive reports about the terror group along with their endless load of anti-Israel reports.

If the press wants to present Hezbullah's side of the story as fact, that's fine. They have the right to do so. They shouldn't be surprised when the IDF recognizes their actions for what they are, and acts accordingly. Continue reading »

Just updated the site layout, so things should look much "cleaner" now. Be sure to let me know what you think!

...Ok, so the title's a stretch. The UN gets a whammy in any case.

AllahPundit and LGF are way ahead of me on this story, so I'll just recap briefly that the United Nations Peacekeeping Force (In Lebanon) has, to the surprise of nobody in the world, challenged Israeli forces.

Yep, gotta keep those peace-loving missile-lobbers safe from Israel those dastardly Zionists!

All in a day's work for Kofi's Kash-Yoinking Krew. Guys, never forget, I will always be

This really doesn't require any explanation, does it?



My question is: Who's dumber? Him for flaunting "western world resolve" (represented by the ever-flauntable UnTIEd Nations), or us for continuing to put up with the dictatorial terrorist regime in Syria?

Update 12:24 EST: Alright, I couldn't resist. Today's going to be a "twofer."



I kinda like the "wispy" look on Ahmad-whatever's face.
