Video: E Patrol at Edendale Vintage Crank-up Weekend
E Patrol drove 9.5 hours South to Edendale to join the Hochgebirgsjager 4 Unit from MRS for a weekend of display, battle and fundraising for RSA and Rannerdale Veterans' Hospital.
Hochgebirgsjager 4 was very hospitable and made us feel incredibly welcome!! Their display was top notch and they were not afraid of getting their kit dirty; Fighters, every man of them! Damned good sports, we appreciate the effort they go to despite the negativity surrounding their chosen side - in re-enacting SOMEBODY has to be a Jerry and we fully respect and appreciate those who have the skin thick enough to do it!!

Egypt and that huge sucking sound!...........from Rico
This was a fast, easy 'read' and it pretty much tracks with what I've seen and learned during many-many years in the Middle East.
Egypt can go from 'equally bad' to 'much worse' but it will NEVER have a Western-style democracy.
- Our pro-anything-bad-for-us MSM bless their pointy "progressive" heads is battling to keep from telling us what we already KNOW. Even their prattling casnnot drown out the HUGE sucking sound coming out of the Middle East and Egypt today.
The Muslim Brotherhood?
- Extremely BAD NEWS for all concerned. When our Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Clapper says they are secular, he is demonstrating that he is just as CLUELESS a 'tool' as when he was head of DIA (Dummies In-Action as I am wont to say from experience, and not the Defense Intelligence Agency as they call themselves...they who believe their own inflated/conflated FITREPS). Yes, James Clapper is a monumental shithead in a city full of them.
And the LAST bit of cheery news? Soetoro-Obama is a freaking Marxist who wears his heart on his sleeve for Islam and Muslims.

Is Islamic Barbie in a burkha is a positive tribute to muslim tradition or, does it promote the enduring subjugation of women by a repressive misogynistic ideology?

Hell Hath No Fury Like Thomas Friedman Scorned...............by Dan Friedman
[I’ve been receiving a lot of mail today about St. Thomas Friedman’s latest anti-Israel rant. It’s been ages since I read his column or his paper and I only visit the website to download and print the puzzle, which I get for free. In that same spirit, I’m not going to supply a link. If you want, you can find them without my help. But below are a few well-chosen words from comrade-in-arms Richard Baehr of the indispensible American Thinker who still seems to let Friedman get under his skin.
Richard, the thing to remember about Friedman (no relation, thank G-d) is that he thinks the world of himself, but the world just won’t reciprocate - especially a tiny part of it called Israel. This in turn makes Tom furious because for at least 25 years the Jewish state has defied his prognostications and made him look the fool. Worse still, the product of his compounding rage is all there on the record in black and white. May Israel continue to confound Thomas L. Friedman and make his blood boil. The sooner the piece of poison burns himself out the sooner we can forget him. df]
Richard Baehr writes:
Tom Friedman, the single most overrated journalist in America, has been obsessed with Israel and settlements for three decades. In mid 2010, he accused Israel of behaving like Syrian mass murderer Hafez Assad, who put down a protest in the city of Hama in 1982, by killing most everyone in the town, 20,000 in all in a single day. Somehow, Israel's behavior reminded Friedman of this atrocity, since he accused Israel of following Hama rules in the 2006 war with Hezbollah, and the 2008 war with Hamas in in Gaza . Friedman believes the events in Egypt represented a great opportunity for Israel to drop its qualms and just make peace with the Palestinians, since the deal has been out there for a long time, and especially since he exchanged peace plans with the Saudis over sweet tea. . And of course, for Friedman, Israel's concern over what might follow Mubarak, and the stability of the 31 year peace treaty with Egypt that has prevented a land war between the nations after they fought 4 in 25 years from 1948 to 1973, is dismissed as Israel choosing to protect the pharoah, rather than stand for democracy, and disappointing the Obama administration which was such a paragon of virtue, speaking so forthrightly and consistently during the crisis.

Middle East Protests Spreading
The Protests are spreading throughout the Middle East. Algeria,
Sudan, Nigeria, Jordan, Yemen, Libya, Egypt, Tunisia... Who's next?
In Bahrain they are handing out cash worth over $2,500 to every family to keep them calm
Don't Forget the Muslim Brotherhood -
The Muslim Brotherhood has taken a greater role in organizing the protest against the Egyptian regime as it unfolds its independent political agenda. Rashad al-Bayumi, the Brotherhood`s second-in-command, announced in an interview with Japanese TV that the group would join a transitional government in order to cancel the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel, as it "offends the Arabs` dignity and destroys the interests of Egypt and other Arab states."
He further stressed that Egypt does not need American aid.
The Muslim Brotherhood does indeed participate in political activity and defend the democratic process. That is not, however, because it has accepted the principles of Western democracy, but rather because the democratic process can be exploited to establish an Islamic regime which will then render democracy unnecessary.
Muslim Brotherhood Supreme Guide Muhammad Mahdi `Akef told the Egyptian daily Al-Karama in 2007 that only Islam was the expression of true democracy.
"Islam and its values antedated the West by founding true democracy, exemplified by the Shura [the advisory council under the Caliphs]."
The Brotherhood`s official website notes that jihad is Islam`s most important tool in effecting a gradual takeover, beginning with the Muslim countries, moving on to reestablishing the Caliphate over three continents in preparation for a conquest of the West, and finally...

Rico writes: I am mindful of Jimmy Buffet's "love from a slightly different point of view' after watching this video.
- It's an interesting perspective, point-of-view.
While it is always good to have a 'plan'...Conventional Wisdom most often is NOT the 'plan' you want to have.
- Yeah, repeat after me: "I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help."
