POPSBBC Correspondent Comment I liked. People of good character can be wrong in the past, but right on the future. And for the record, I do not think Iraq was a wrong decision although I feel the execution of the post-Saddam era was beyond awful.

POPSMichael Yon on the Iraq War If you don't follow Michael Yon you should. He goes to the rough areas and reports as HE sees it. No agenda, no adherence to any party.

POPSWhy can't Obama admit the obvious Even USAToday (who thinks the world would be a better and safer place if Saddam was still in charge of Iraq) is baffled by Obama's reluctance to admit the truth.

POPSMedia reports Bush didn't lie In other news, Satan builds a ski resort and the car wash business is up sharply due to cars being soiled by flying pigs. Sorry for skimping on the AP quote, I hear they start charging at five words so I cut it down to four.

POPSBush made the world a safer place Bush was the right man for the presidency, at precisely the right time. I shudder to think of the mess we would be in had Gore or that other idiot been at the reins on 9/11.

POPSBush never lied to us about Iraq Oh....but the lie is so much more delicious and makes the "critics" sound so pious. If it will taint the "selected " President, then it doesn't matter if it's true or not.

POPSEat Crow, liberal Iraqi war skeptics If Democrats had won the White House in 2004, the jihadists might have succeeded. The idiotic liberals are still for retreat in the face of victory. The US decision to "stay the course" in the Iraq war, which was also widely mocked and criticized, served to thoroughly demoralize the jihadist movement. Another example of why liberals are unfit to run this country, unless you want to run it into the ground.

POPSIraq could be decisive victory over bin Laden I have always felt that Bush's plan to invade Iraq was the right thing to do, and was strategically brilliant. It was the way to rid the Middle East of a tyrant, draw in and decimate al Qaeda, and an effective way to ultimately defeat al Qaeda and jihadist philosphy, that could never have been done in Afghanistan alone. Once again the democrats have been proven wrong on Iraq and wrong on how to fight and defeat al Qaeda. History will provide Bush and his administration with a legacy as a brilliant war president who executed a brilliant, difficult and daring war plan successfully. And the title of this piece is telling - who has been trying to sell the American people with Iraq's Jihad Myths? The liberal mainstream media, that's who.

POPSAl Qaeda in Iraq Update - Jan 20 This clip is but a small portion of the presentation made by Rear Adm. Gergory Smith, Multi-National Force-Iraq. He provides a detailed brief of our efforts against AQI over the past year, including a slide show. You will never see this in the mainstream media or hear about it from the lips of democrats. It is a damning demonstration of how wrong liberals and democrats have been, and how unfit for any sort of leadership they are. I urge you to follow the link and read of our great successes against this evil enemy.

POPSDemocrats in Denial We are not arguing that one had to agree with the surge or the Bush decision to go into Iraq. Dissent is a deep tradition in U.S. politics, and this war has become a bitter subject. It is evident, though, that the opposition to Iraq after the Democrats won control of Congress in 2006 has put these candidates in a corner. For the past year, Democrats in both the Senate and House have enforced rock-solid party opposition to every jot and tittle of the Bush policy. They now have four candidates running for the U.S. Presidency who seem to believe it is to their political advantage to deny manifest reality.

POPS The Real McCain Record Mark Levin NRO
His supporters point to essentially one policy strength, McCain’s early support for a surge and counterinsurgency. It has now evolved into McCain taking credit for forcing the president to adopt General David Petreaus’s strategy. Where’s the evidence to support such a claim? McCain has repeatedly called for the immediate closing of Guantanamo Bay and the introduction of al-Qaeda terrorists into our own prisons — despite the legal rights they would immediately gain and the burdens of managing such a dangerous population. While McCain proudly and repeatedly points to his battles with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, who had to rebuild the U.S. military and fight a complex war, where was McCain in the lead-up to the war — when the military was being dangerously downsized by the Clinton administration. Where was McCain when the CIA was in desperate need of attention? McCain was apparently in the dark about al-Qaeda like most of Washington, despite a decade of warnings.

POPSReally Bloody Awful WW1 photos of DEATH Be Warned. Some of these will SHOCK! After WW2m the German citizens were brought to the death camps to see the horror practised in their name. Any advocating war against ANYONE - Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, Cuba, whoever - should first have to view such photos. There are worse on the site, if you dare.

POPSIn Memoriam to a soldier, not unknown This is the conclusion of Hitchen's essay on the death of Mark Daily, a young man who was inspired by Hitchens to join the army, and gave his life in Mosul, Iraq. The essay is a very interesting and introspective piece, and was one of David Brooks' picks for best essays of the year. It is well worth reading to contemplate the reality of the war, separate from the propaganda and politics. A very refreshing change.
