Oh we've got a pretty good idea of what probably caused the blast.

Per Fox News, the State-run NET television is reporting that eyewitnesses say they heard an explosion inside the embassy's main building.

This message brought to you by your friendly MSM

From BBC:

An explosion has been heard in the US embassy compound in the Greek capital, Athens, reports say.
Police have surrounded the building and cordoned off the nearby area as they begin to investigate the disturbance.

There was no immediate information about what caused the suspected blast, and no word on any damage or possible injuries.

Fire engines rushed to the scene, amid reports of a third floor blast shortly before dawn, AFP news agency said.

Not terrorism.

/State-Bush

Sounds like we've pissed off someone again! Maybe the help we are giving the Ethiopians is getting to someone? In Greece, it's hard to tell, because there has always been a pretty hardcore group of anti-American types, well before the Islamofascists showed their ugly heads! Whatever group is responsible, I hope they die very, very painful deaths!

To be fair, this could be old-fashioned EuroCommuTerror. I'm sure some of the old geezers are getting all misty-eyed and sentimental watching the jihadis get all the glory striking at our capitalistic-imperialistic-hegemonic-diplomatic buildings. But I would not be shocked greatly if a Mohammed were involved either.

Erbil payback? Loose the lazer pointers in Iran.

No injuries. It was about 5 am.

Hmmm, I wonder just who could it be?.....

It won't be long until the "progressive" element labels it a "justified" attack.

The democrats only got sworn in last week! Whomever launched this attack, however large or small it turns out to be, sure isn't wasting any time.

What our policy needs to be and must be for our survival:

Islam, as it is a religion of individuals, is not to be interfered with. Islam, however, insofar as it is directed by governments, and as a measure enforced from above by any government, is to be done away with.
Totalitarian Islam, an ideology that merges state power with religious belief, must go.
Islam, however, insofar as it is directed by governments, and as a measure enforced from above by the government, is to be done away with. People [will] not be taxed to support Islam and there will be no place for Islam in the schools.

Islam as a state religion—National Islam, that is—will go . . . Our policy on this goes beyond Islam . . . The dissemination of Islamic militaristic ideology in any form will be completely suppressed. Middle Eastern Governments will be required to cease financial and other support of Islamic establishments.

Does the above sound extreme? It is the actual text of a telegram sent on 10-11-1945 to the Supreme Allied Commander in Japan, outlining the US policy following their surrender.

This is not a clash between civilizations; it is a clash between civilization and barbarism. Until civilized people assert themselves with a depth of moral confidence exceeding that projected by those who submit to the “will of Allah,” America will remain permanently on the defensive, in a state of moral dhimmitude, and the war will continue to its logical conclusion: a mushroom cloud over America.

The telegram is an excerpt from “No Substitute for Victory”
The Defeat of Islamic Totalitarianism by John Lewis

"zorkmidden," the Greek-American gal who co-runs Discarded Lies, commented there that anti-Guantanamo protesters demonstrated around the U.S. Embassy in Athens just yesterday (10 January), and there is already speculation in Greek media that the explosion might be connected to that.

Police officials at the scene said that whatever caused the explosion damaged the official embassy sign outside the mission, but there was little other indication of the extent of damage inside.

I have a friend who, in a phone conversation last weekend, said the unsayable. Come to think of it, this friend makes a specialty of saying the unsayable. That is one reason he is invaluable.

He said, “The Democrats have to win in 2008 — I mean, the whole enchilada: House, Senate, and presidency.” You ought to know that my friend is a staunch conservative Republican. “Why?” I said. “Why do they have to win?” He answered, “Because that’s the only way they will be fully onboard the War on Terror. They won’t fully support it otherwise, because they will always be trying to trip up the Republicans. If you want the Democrats onboard the War on Terror, they have to be in charge. Period.”

ATHENS (Reuters) - An explosion ripped through the U.S. embassy compound in central Athens on Friday, police said.

It was not clear what caused the blast and there was no immediate word on whether there were any casualties.

"We are investigating the cause of the explosion. We are not ruling anything out," a senior police official told Reuters.

Dozens of police cars surrounded the embassy and police cordoned off all roads in the area, including a major boulevard in front of the mission.

"Police have cut off all traffic. I am standing right here but there does not seem to be any damage. Greece's anti-terror squad are now investigating inside the embassy," a U.S. embassy employee at the scene told Reuters.

The senior police official did not say whether the explosion was set off inside the compound or whether something might have been thrown into the embassy grounds.

Police officials at the scene said that whatever caused the explosion damaged the official embassy sign outside the mission, but there was little other indication of the extent of damage inside.

The tightly guarded building is surrounded by a 3-meter (9-feet)-high steel fence. Guards are posted at every entrance and at street corners around it.

Embassy officials could not immediately be reached for comment.

Local residents called in to state television saying they had felt the explosion, which shattered some windows.

Greece's biggest domestic security threat, the leftist November 17 guerrilla group, which had in the past killed U.S. and other foreign diplomats in Greece, was dismantled in 2002

Seems like no one was hurt, and it was a minor attack. I am hearing maybe...grenade?

It may or may not have been the Greeks. There are a few "organized" terrorist groups over there that have always had a hard-on for American targets, but most of the groups were pretty small. November 17th took a big hit in the Greek crackdown before the 2004 Olympics. The other one that comes to mind, the People's Revolutionary Struggle (or something like that) fell apart back in the 90's. I'm sure there are still remnants of both agitating every now and then.

But I agree, 24 hour rule should probably be in effect.

Nordlinger misses a crucial distinction. The Democrats must be in power in order to appear to be onboard the War on Terror. Otherwise they will make their opposition to it plain. Either way, they never will actually do anything to crush the enemy.

"November 17" terrorists admit to 1996 US embassy rocket attack

The "November 17" terrosist [sic] group in a new proclamation has assumed responsibility for the rocket attack on the United States' embassy in Athens, back in February 1996.

The terrorists' proclamation, the third sent to Athenian daily ELEFTHEROTYPIA in as many days, says that they did not issue one at the time of the attack on the US mission because "the reasons were so obvious and understood" and it relates it to the Imia crisis between Greece and Turkey in January 1996.

Police sources said yesterday that American police authorities have offered the use of state-of-the-art electronic equipment to assist in the hunt for the terrorist group.

Anyone care to wager it's the same group?

#76 Saltmarsh

Nonetheless, the fact that there are even worse appeasers than Bush does not change the fact he is an appeaser.

Blast at U.S. embassy called 'terrorism'

ATHENS (Reuters) - Attackers fired a rocket at the U.S. embassy in Athens on Friday but no one was hurt, police and the U.S. embassy said.

Greek anti-terrorist officers were on the scene.

"This was a rocket attack launched from a building across the street. It landed inside a toilet on the third floor of the embassy," a senior police official told Reuters.

"There are no injuries from the blast," a U.S. embassy spokesman said.

The senior police official said Greece's deputy police chief and Athens police chief had gone into the building together with officers of the national security and anti-terrorist squads.

Dozens of police cars surrounded the embassy and police cordoned off all roads in the area, including a major boulevard in front of the mission.

This is NOT a practice run before the real thing, this is LIFE!

Well said, and I totally agree, especially for the reason you gave at the end. This is life -- our life. It's not enough to say, "But we're trying everything we can" or "Let's tweak our plan a little and add 20,000 more troops" or "Let's give Iraq more time to build a democracy and maybe it'll spread around the Middle East." No, life is too precious to be wasted on fantasies. Political policy must be based in fact. It must recognize the nature of the people involved, without regard to wishful thinking or blissful ignorance or one-world mush.

We must deal with foreign nations by objective standards, chief among them being man's life. We need leaders who understand that man has a specific nature. That his only means of dealing with the world around him is his reasoning mind, and in order to use his mind properly, he must be free to think for himself. He cannot get his identity from his tribe or by substituting someone else's mind for his. Our political policy must be constructed to defend such a basic fact: that government's most sacred charge is to protect man's right to live as he can and should.

Those who say that we have to support the lesser of two evils ignore the fact that they are nonetheless supporting evil, and evil is not our only choice. It only seems that way because we settle for it. If we're ever going to get back to living free, as a proper capitalist society, we must reject this false dichotomy of Democrat-Republican and support those who will really defend us with everything we've got. Two-hundred years ago, we had men who knew the meaning of freedom and individual rights, and our country put its trust in them. We could have them again, if only we're willing to support those ideals. We have everything to gain, and lose.

Could be more retaliation closer to home.

Taking out an American Standard at long range is a chilling capability we have seen displayed here tonight.

"The truth about the courageous, brave resistance fighters in Baghdad is ...

Call for faith-based NHS services

"Male infant circumcision should be available throughout the NHS... Professor Sheikh said.
He also said hospitals needed to accommodate Muslims in other ways.
"Many Muslims, to maintain modesty, prefer to see a same sex clinician. Such choice is typically unavailable despite the higher number of women doctors in the NHS.
"Another important service is to enable Muslims to avoid porcine and alcohol derived drugs."
added Muslims should be given better access to prayer facilities and advice over how they should modify their treatment for chronic conditions during Ramadan.

A contract possibility for London just popped up. I figure it's a long-shot, as I'm sure they would rather have somebody local, but we shall see.

I aint no spring chicken... but I hear ya, it takes some getting used to

There was an anti-war demonstration in Lubbock today. About two dozen local moonbats showed up for the MoveOn.org sponsored event at a park that also hosts the local veterans memorial. They waved the usual retread 60s signs at passersby and got (mostly) the one-finger salute in return.

This is quite reminiscent of 1970, and the antiwar movement's massive outburst against the incursions into Cambodia. At that time, too, hinterland hippies and their trend-conscious allies staged demonstrations in many areas that had not seen them before. It really marked the mainstreaming of the anti-war movement, at least according to the standard dogma of the media prophets.

As I have been saying for a couple of days, I think current leftist tactics are consciously following the Cambodian invasion script from 36 years ago and will climax with some kind of attempt to repeat the Kent State drama. The latter was probably the far left's single greatest propaganda coup of the Vietnam war, at a cost of just 4 dead, none of them significant leaders.

Meanwhile, a broader range of Congress-critters have jumped aboard the anti-war bandwagon.
They are betting the ranch that Bush's revamped war plan will fail.
Today, a Rep. Abercrombie (D-Beirut) was raving that the new plan was "dumbest" thing he had ever heard of, or words to that effect. Dennis Kucinich (D-Pluto) and Keith Ellison (AQ-Mecca) have called for immediate unconditional withdrawal of all US forces from Iraq, with Basra apparently to serve as a new Dunkirk. Similar screeds have been heard from Rodent-infested districts all over America.
They know that their 2008 opponents will re-play these reckless pronouncements ad nauseum if the Bush plan actually works. They would look like fools, cowards, and worse in that case; but they are sublimely confident that it won't happen.

There is a lot they don't know about the reasons for Bush's confidence, either because they and their staffs cannot understand the importance of the relevant data or conceivably because a security conscious administration has chosen not to share it.

There are some things very few people know----for now.
Stay tuned.

Revolutionary Struggle has claimed responsiblity.

Scott's last letter to his wife goes on display.

Out on the quivering tip of the limb:

I could still be wrong, but my particular background and recent associations, allied to a confluence of objective evidence, lead me to believe that this war really does have its own analog to the WW2 atomic bomb, a stunning technical surprise that will seem all but miraculous when it does become public knowledge.
There could also be several lesser, but still remarkable and potentially decisive, innovations. It is quite likely that one of them has gone into action during the last few days.

If so, remember that you heard it here first.

Revolutionary Struggle:

The group, which espouses communism, has continued its anti-Western stance after the Cold War. November 17 bitterly opposes Greek participation in NATO. It also favors ousting U.S. military bases from Greek territory, severing Greece ’s ties with the European Union, removing the Turkish military presence from Cyprus , and launching an anti-capitalist popular uprising against the Greek middle and upper-classes. In December 2000, after killing a British general, the group released a communiqué defending itself against mounting public criticism by trying to appeal to populist, pro-Serb sentiments and urging Greeks to defy the government’s counterterrorism efforts.

Referred to inside Islamic Iran as the Regime's version of Kissinger, Abbasi works directly as special advisor for the dead or dying Supreme Ruler in Iran - Ali Khamenei.

London Mosque DVD: Jews Face Mass Extermination

A leading mosque in London is selling DVDs that proclaim the coming mass extermination of Jews around the world on a "day of judgment." It also attacks Christian groups and the United Nations.

The London Central Mosque, also known as Regent's Park Mosque, is "the spiritual focal point for Muslims" throughout Great Britain, the European Jewish Press reported. It is also home to the Islamic Cultural Center, which educates Muslim children.

The report said that a British television station will air on Monday a documentary on Muslim extremism in Britain, and will report the selling of the DVD.

The DVDs are being sold at the London Central Mosque Shop. One excerpt shows a preacher, Sheikh Feiz, imitating the sounds of a pig and referring to the Jewish people who will be killed on the "day of judgment."

Another preacher, Sheikh Yassin, states that United Nations missionaries and Christians conspired to inject an AIDS virus in inoculations against diseases in Africa.

Faced with charges of selling the DVDs, the manger of the shop at the mosque said there were only 10 DVDs and all of them have been sold. He claimed that the supplier asserted the excerpts were taken out of context.

The television documentary discusses Muslim extremism and the July 2005 attacks on London's transportation system, which killed 52 people.

Bad news from China - not enough girls around there to marry a surplus of men - result of the one child policy

China will have 30 million more men of marriageable age than women by 2020, making it difficult for them to find wives, according to a national report.
The gender imbalance could lead to social instability, the report by the State Population and Family Planning Commission warned.

It found that around 118 boys were born to every 100 girls in 2005.

A traditional preference for boys, in a country with a one-child policy, is the root of the problem, the report says.

Not good news if you're a baby boy now in a poor family in the sticks in China

Worse still to be a young woman in that country. The rapes, bride-abductions, and other acts of violence against women by frustrated young males has already begun in some places, and will be a widespread plague for generations. Look for more aggressive militarism, too, as Chinese authorities try to figure out what to do with tens of millions of unmarriageable males. A lot of them will probably wind up in your country and mine (U.S.); unofficial talk is that China will try to export as many of them as possible for education as a temporary safety valve.

And that 118-100 is a Chinese figure. In reality it is certainly worse. I just returned from a 3-week trip to China, and the absence of baby girls was striking, especially outside the big cities.
