re: #581 Wishing

Just saw on Drudge that the jihadis have taken to burning down forests, setting fires as *terrorism*. Religion of peace. Your text to link…

This is not directed at you.

BUT,

I’m glad Drudge has noticed that the jihadis have suddenly taken to doing something that they have been already doing for decades in Israel.

It’s an friggin’ annual event in Israel.

It is incredibly frustrating as an American/Israeli that has closely followed events in Israel long before even living there for over a decade when again and again tactics that have been used FOREVAH are called “new” tactics in this country or other countries.

If the world didn’t ignore the “tactics” when used elsewhere, they wouldn’t be shocked by these “NEW” tactics when they are used against others.

I’ve posted many times before, that there wasn’t ONE NEW TACTIC used against the US and Nato in Iraq and Afganistan that hadn’t already been used against Israel in Lebanon, “Territories,” etc.

Well, there was one new thing. Road-side bombs suddenly became IEDs.

Our budding officers sitting at West Point, Citidel and Annapolis study military tactics used throughout history.

The jihadis do the same thing. Once a tactic is ALLOWED to be successful, it’s used elsewhere.

So excuse me if it pisses me off when we’ll start hearing about the NEW TACTIC of setting forest/bush/wild fires as terrorism.

Yes, if a tree falls in the woods and no one reports on it outside of the woods, it still makes a friggin noise.

This also pertains to non-military tactics.

As in MSM manipulation, Israel had Jenin Jack way before you guys had Bagdad Bob.

Abu Graib and Gitmo are the Meggido and whatever the effen name of that Israeli security prison that was in S Leb when Israel needed the buffer zone, of today.

It’s a broken friggin record that plays over and over again and is sold as new.

The MSM (and western govs) will bend over backwards to convince you that the Islamic terrorism against Israel is somehow different than the INTERNATIONAL Islamic terrorism against the rest of the west.

Rant suspended until further notice.
