Rule 5: Girls With Guns

A not-unfamiliar sight in Israel. Certainly would improve the landscape here.

Our inept Navy

You could blame Obumbles. Lots of people are. But it was our allegedly mighty Navy that made the mess he only stepped in. Presumably the immediate, on-scene commander of this humiliation has been relieved and is awaiting courts martial and a ruined career. They do that to commanders whose boats merely run aground. Not to mention the chatty noncom who ought to be booted.

UPDATE:  Instead of competence, this is what they focus on.

Omar, you naughty boy

“Omar Faraj Saeed Al Hardan, who came to Houston from Iraq in 2009, was indicted last week on three charges, including attempting to provide support to a designated terrorist organization. He pleaded not guilty to all three charges during a court appearance on Wednesday.”

Another lone wolf, so called. The main charge was planning to bomb a Houston shopping mall. Much more logical target than Wall Street, I must admit.

The president who won’t

“President Obama finally acknowledged last night that the attack in San Bernardino was an ‘act of terrorism.’ Yet, as a Journal editorial observes, “the President devoted most of his speech to defending the strategy he has pursued for 16 months against Islamic State without much success. He cited his bombing campaign, but he didn’t mention that the vast majority of sorties drop no bombs because of the limits he has placed on the military.“

Or maybe the headline should be the president who can’t. Can’t admit he was wrong. Keep making those range trips, guys. Keep practicing hitting center mass. It’s for sure the feds aren’t going to be of any help.

Never a better time for firearms training

Of course our half-wit president and his lapdog media cronies will do their best to use the San Bernadino murders to try and disarm the law-abiding. Oh, yes, that will help, no doubt. Common sense has never been one of His Putz’s strong points. Nor of his pals at the WaPo and NYT. Fortunately neither the congress nor the courts will follow their, uh, leadership on guns.

In fact, this is probably the best time ever to go out to your local range, indoors or out, rent a gun (pistol or rifle makes no difference) and learn how to defend yourself and your loved ones. Most ranges will “rent” the weapon for free and only charge you for the ammunition it “eats,” as well as normal range fees.

Mr. B. and I are headed out to Liberty Hill (apt name) on Sunday for the second meeting of the Jewish Rifle & Pistol Club of Central Texas. Weather forecast is good enough. We’ll get in a little dry-firing beforehand so our aim won’t be so far off this time and, as usual, pretend the paper target is a Jihadi come calling. Or, in the case of San Bernadino, a Jihadi husband-and-wife team.

Nowadays, with a Muslim-lovin’ twit in the White House, you never know. Better prepared than sorry. They’d be crazy to try it in Texas, but they’re crazy to begin with.

UPDATE:  Go get ’em, Ted: “You don’t get rid of the bad guys by getting rid of our guns. You get rid of the bad guys by using our guns.”

MORE:  Time to get a concealed-carry permit. But the laws are complicated.

Pallywood’s modern miracle

Just days from the Jewish Chanukah, the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians are preparing to celebrate a modern miracle of their own, as they struggle to make their pretend democracy look real—lest the bundles of cash from their Western supporters should dwindle or, god forbid, stop altogether:

On Jan. 1, Mamoud Abbas, the so-called president of the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians, will begin the 11th year of his reign. Uh, make that the near-tripling of his first 4-year term of office. What Obama and Netanyahu may only dream about, Abbas does.

“So the legend is that there was only enough corruption, incitement and farce to last four years…” explained local historian Yoni K. as he looked for sufganyot and potatoes in the Shuk Ha Carmel. “But through a little luck and maybe even a miracle, his four year term has lasted ten years and counting!…”

Now that’s achievement. So what if the so-called president of the AWCTP is a little late in leaving office, or even in attracting a rival suicidal enough to oppose him. Stability. That’s the ticket, especially when you’re busy running a knifing intifada battle campaign. Stability. Yes ma’am.
