* TIMESOnline UNCOVERS HOME-GROWN HATE

by LITTLE BABY GINN and MONDOREB

Mr ul Haq, 36, was educated and trained at an Islamic seminary in Britain and is part of a new generation of British imams who share a similar radical agenda. He heaps scorn on any Muslims who say they are “proud to be British” and argues that friendship with a Jew or a Christian makes “a mockery of Allah’s religion”.

According to an investigation by TimesOnline (UK), and reported by Reuters, almost half of Britain's mosques are under the control of a hardline Islamic sect whose leading preacher hates Western values and has called on Muslims to "shed blood" for Allah:

* Petraeus Report: The Only War Democrats are Willing to Fight

by LITTLE BABY GINN and MONDOREB


The Left's usual, reliable poodles are yapping again. This time, they're nipping at the heels of the upcoming report by General Petraeus on the situation in Iraq.

Fueled by this MoveOn.org ad in the New York Times this morning, the LA Times, Yahoo News, and like-minded MSM toadies, the 'surrender drums' are beating louder for a US defeat in Iraq, by any means necessary. It's a steady, unrelenting, unyielding, never-ending 'BOOM, BOOM, BOOM' from Leftards desperately needing, yearning, aching for a US defeat--any US defeat. They would support another invasion of Viet Nam if they were assured that US troops would die and we would run away.

That was what we were talking about at DBKP one year ago today: September 10, 2007.

Same as it ever was.

Foreign Companies Rushing to Invest in Iraq

We Won!



The rest of the world apparently doesn't read the U.S. Mainstream Media.

Or listen to Congressional Democrats, Harry Reid or Code Pink, either.

Companies from around the world are rushing into Iraq to do business, due to the improved security climate in that country. Over a half-billion dollars worth of investments from countries that, in many cases, didn't support the U.S. in its efforts to improve Iraq's security.

European and Asian companies are beating their American rivals into Iraq now that security has improved the investment climate, Iraq and U.S. officials say.

"It's starting to turn … and the people who are getting in on the ground floor are not American," said Paul Brinkley, the Pentagon official who is leading U.S. efforts to help Iraq rebuild its economy. "It's ironic."

Foreign companies, including U.S. investors, have committed to deals worth about $500 million so far this year and Brinkley expects at least $1 billion in foreign investment by the end of the year.

What about China, who hamstrings the USA in the United Nations every chance it gets?

Even China is reaping profits from the U.S. investment in troops and treasure in Iraq.

USA Today goes on to note that "China has also aggressively pursued the Iraqi market, selling machinery to the government and electronic products to consumers."

Why aren't we celebrating this good news from Iraq?

Or, the questions should more properly be: Why isn't the MSM celebrating the good news from Iraq?

Millions of readers know the answer to that question. Or, rather: Millions of MSM ex-readers.

Apparently, that includes the CEOs of many foreign companies.
