LGF just posted this image of the Palestinian version of a “polite request“.
What I find especially funny, and telling, is that the thug – I mean requestor – in the foreground is carrying an Uzi. That’s made in what country, pal?
Too bad he couldn’t get one of those fine small arms of Middle-Eastern manufacture.
I keep having Footfall flashbacks.
That’s the punch line to a classic lawyer joke, and a good description of the latest al Qaeda news from Iraq.
Coalition forces in Iraq have delivered a series of stunning blows to al Qaeda in Iraq in the last 48 hours.
A key aide to Abu Ayyub al-Masri, the man who replaced Abu Musab al Zarqawi as the leader of al Qaeda in Iraq, has been captured south of Baghdad. As A.J. Strata notes, the trail to the al Qaeda leader is fresh: the captured aide admitted to meeting with al Masri yesterday.
There’s more good news. Read the whole thing.
Update:
Michelle Malkin rounded up a bunch more.
Edwards is a boob.
WASHINGTON — Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards said Thursday he was personally offended by the provocative messages two of his campaign bloggers wrote criticizing the Catholic church, but he’s not firing them.
I wonder just how offensive one has to be to be fired by the Breck Girl.
This is great news, of course, because this idiotic decision will haunt him through what remains of his campaign. But for a guy who is supposed to be in tune with what juries want to hear, this strikes me as spectacularly tone deaf.
It took four guys to write this article for the Financial Times and not one of them knows the difference between DRM (Digital Rights Management) and copyright.
Apple’s demand that record companies do away with copyright protection for songs they sell online has set up a bitter battle between the two camps as they prepare for broad-ranging contract negotiations.
Lordy, where does one start? Maybe by reading what Jobs actually wrote and noticing that he never mentions the word copyright?
Nah. Too much research to expect from four guys in three countries.
