Somalia, anyone?

[Eagle1]

Som-pun-map.2.jpg

Sort of a linky updater on Somalia here, spurred by a Counterterrorism Blog post and Bill Roggio's fine work.

One quote from the CT Blog post to set the tone:

However, Tehran et al are providing support for the Islamic Courts Union and that is worrisome. Besides the possibility of access to uranium deposits in Somalia, influence in Somalia gives Iran a foothold on the strategic Horn of Africa. This, combined with Iran's dominant position on the Staits of Hormuz, gives Iran leverage over two crucial shipping channels. Somalia is already a haven for piracy, and with professional help, this piracy could become a major international problem.

Re: Hangin'

James Hooker:

The vilest of bastards are liberals who proclaim their love for "Freedom of Speech"...and back it up with this:
This video may contain content that is inappropriate for some users, as flagged by YouTube's user community.

To view this video, please verify you are 18 or older by logging in or signing up.

Apologies to anyone who was "offended" by the video below.

But I'm curious - does the video appear in the entry below? If you click it does it play without a "warning"? Viewed at the YouTube site you do have to acknowledge you're over 18 - which is absurd.

Re: News from Afghanistan

[Greyhawk]

Number of times Afghanistan was mentioned by a Senator during this week's 4.5-hour Senate Armed Services Committee Hearing on Current Situation in Iraq and Afghanistan: 2.

Which is why I'm glad you're keeping us up with that story, Major T.

Hangin' Out With the Boys

[Greyhawk]

My buddy James Hooker's video on you tube:

More Hooker tunes available on his blog.

Looks like he's got a new album out too. (Ya see kids, back when I was young, we called 'em albums...)

Update: I dedicate Georgia Moon to the folks of the 3ID, who made the list today.

Smoke and whiskey, boys. Rock of the Marne.

Spit and Polish

[Greyhawk]

So, it's USAF recruiting video day eh? (Look - even B5's getting in to the act)

But here's one you might not have seen...
