Once again, it's time for our weekly trip around the blogosphere.
Because I missed the last Democratic presidential debate, I didn't feel comfortable blogging about it. Barack Obama launched a whopper of a tall tale about how our military allegedly, and I must emphasize, allegedly, is scanvenging supplies from the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Aaron at Lifelike Pundits has the video and his take of things here.
The phrase about Israel, "A Land without a People for a People without a Land," didn't come from Zionists, although those opposed to the Jewish state, and many others, like to think so. Martin Solomon of Solomonia explains, and he scores an exclusive interview with essayist Diana Muir, who explores the origins of the phrase in the latest, but not online yet, edition of Middle East Quarterly.
Billy Dennis at Peoria Pundit posted his 10,000th entry last week.
Anthony H. Cordesman is one of the Democrats' favorite military experts--because of his pessimism. Now, as Flopping Aces reports, he's much more optimistic about our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Quick--tell Barack Obama!
I'm not the only one disturbed by what I call Barack Obama's "Cult of Change." So is Right Wing Nation, and he digs a bit a couple of other personality cults for some context.
More odds and sods next Sunday.
