I wonder how big a problem trolls and crapflooders are in the online militant forums. Like that dick who constantly follows every al-Zawahiri post with a reminder of that one time he said maybe not all infidels should have their heads cut off. Or that jerkoff who replies to every thread with something non-sexist, non-homophobic and not religiously bigoted just so he can get everyone to flame him.

President McCain thanks you Dan, well not so much for the dig at the US military, but the spin that Al-Qaeda is having trouble, rather than the war being their best recruitment tool, is certainly welcome.

Sounds like everyone is getting sick of war, except those who want to wage it but don't want to be in the middle of the fight itself. But, Al-Q wouldn't even really be recruiting Iraq if we weren't there, so...

Sorry, is this saying that felons were sprung from jail to serve in the military, or does it mean that the military is willing to overlook criminal records when recruiting?

"Two-and-a-half-hour message" and "online militant forums" are the parts that jumped out at me. God, talk about a circle-jerk. I have no idea what that forum must be like.

If the bad guys are losing, can our guys come home yet?
