Birmingham Hit by 2nd Twister in Year!

This is very unusual. First of all - about 80% of the tornadoes in the world occur in North America (mostly in the US and Canada). MOST of the rest of them are in China. Euro-twisters are quite rare, and it's even wierder for the same location to have two within a short period.

Michelle Malkin has a very good note of remembrance via the above link - check it out and remember a bit of why we are fighting a war against Islamofascism.

Also, and H/T to her for also linking to this remembrance on the Stars and Stripes nilitary newspaper web site. The Chief HIGHLY recommends this one on this day - read it and remember.

Sheikh Khalid Yassin shares his worldview with the Australian public, then proclaims himself "not as radical" as John Pilger. Interesting reading, if you want to see what one Islamonutter thinks about AIDS and the fashion world, to name two examples....
