As any military person or military wantabe knows good warfare starts with good solid  intelligence. Just ask Mr Decider, George W. Bush. He will tell you how imperative it is to have good recon and superior intelligence information on hand before starting an aggressive first strike war.

Now you don’t have to be foolish and trust your government to get it right. Launch your own reconnaissance plane and get first hand photos of your neighbors secrets. With clear photos taken from your own spy plane you will get the right lintel and be able to strike them before they can strike you.

The Remote Control Reconnaissance PlaneThis oversized remote control model plane has a detachable digital camera that takes still photos from hundreds of feet above the ground.

Even if you don’t plan on going to war anytime soon your spy plane may well take some highly interesting photos of the activities that go on behind your neighbors fence. Especially the neighbors with the three teen ago daughters who spend the entire summer at their swimming pool.

Get your spy plane now. Be the authority on all activities in your neck of the woods.

Be the first in your neighborhood to have your own UFO. While everyone else are searching the sky hoping to see one you can launch your own UFO at will and establish aerial supremacy of your street.

Start your own UFO air force and become dictator of your neighborhood now. Who can oppose you with your UFO fleet always at the ready?

You easily will rule your own street. Then on to bigger things. It’s a big world out there. Wouldn’t it be fun in the best spirit of the neo-cons to rule it all?

Note that the UFO’s do not come armed. You have to supply your own bombs and ray guns.

Four-Motor Remote Control UFO  Lightweight remote control UFO has four individual motors, a gyro-stabilization system, and a streamlined shape for versatility and precise movement.

Brave words from a defiant and still arrogant Bush administration.

I was watching Hardtalk on BBC today. I enjoy Hardtalk as indeed the presenters ask tough hardball questions of their guests. No Larry King style pandering interviews on Hardtalk. The presenters have completed their research and are well prepared for the interviews, armed with information and quotes put forth at some time by the guest.

If you don’t want to appear as a complete fool or as being dishonest about your positions you had best be fully prepared prior to appearing on Hardtalk.

The guest on today’s program was the United States State Department’s advisor for Iraq. I apologize to the gentlemen as I failed to jot down his name. He was quite professional although rather abrasive in manner as a defender of his boss, Connie Rice, President Bush, and of the Bush administration’s new policy strategy towards Iraq. 

On several occasions he stated that “failure in Iraq is not an option”. He refused to speculate as to what the US would do if it does fail to accomplish it’s main objective of a free, stable, and democratic Iraq.

Of course, if he values his job he could hardy do otherwise. Those who are not team players and who don’t read from the Bush play book don’t last very long in the Bush Whitehouse.

I couldn’t help but think that the Bush team is still living in dreamland if it truly thinks the new strategy is going to produce different results than other offensive operations it has conducted in Iraq. In the end 21,500 additional temporary “surge” US troops is not nearly enough to suppress a well entrenched and growing insurgency even if the Iraqi army performs reasonably well.

Here is a handy device for all of you iPod fans. And as popular as iPods have become that means at least several millions of you.

The device allows you to preserve your audio and video memories without having to rely on a conversion service or risk long-term damage to the original medium, and no computer or special software is required.

The converter plugs into any audio or video device equipped with RCA connections and S-Video (standard on nearly all A/V components) with its included audio/video cables. Now you can easily add loads of your favorite audio and video sights and sounds to your iPod and take them with you everywhere you go.

You do have an iPod don’t you?

The One-Touch Any-Media iPod® Uploader.  This device, the first of its kind, converts any type of video or audio, including cassette tapes, vinyl records, television shows, and VHS tapes, directly to an iPod at the touch of a button.

The Jan. 23th news from Iraq that five “civilians” were killed in a helicopter crash in Baghdad, Iraq warranted closer investigation. Here is a far more accurate description of the event, as detailed by a Blackwater employee and the brother of one of those killed.

Within Iraqslogger.com there is another item that states that according to the Department of Defense there are now over 100,000 private contractors employed in Iraq. Over 20,000 of these contractors are reportedly employed by Blackwater. Blackwater is owned by Eric Prince, a former US Navy Seal, who is now a billionaire and is one of the Iraq war’s greatest profiteers.

Blackwater now owns more than 7,000 acres around Moyock, N.C. USA and conducts training operations for law enforcement officers, military, and for it’s own mercenary forces. As you might guess Mr. Prince is a huge fan of George W. Bush.

Blackwater even manufactures an armored personnel carrier, the Grizzly and sells military gear and clothing from it’s website. The scope of Blackwater’s training and private military operations are amazing as well as disturbing. Take a look at Blackwater’s website and see for yourself.

The use of private contractors to provide services that used to be only provided by the US military within a US theater of war is unprecedented. It is one way the Bush administration has tried to hide the full extent of the cost and extent of our involvement in Iraq as well as personnel levels within the combat zone.

Blackwater is a true mercenary army. Most of its employees are former special forces military personnel who are attracted by the prospect of earning from $500 up to $1,000 a day, tax free, for their “service to their country” in Iraq. Not only does Blackwater employ former highly trained US military personnel they also employ a host of foreign nationals, like former special forces personnel from Chili and The Philippines.
