#1 contrast this with the tet offensive, which did have strategic (or perhaps the better term is moral? hmm, too many different meanings there)

the word you're looking for is morale.

#2 When I first saw how Dan had titled this, I thought he was alluding to the unusual use for toothpaste the the Gitmo Islamikooks were developing.

#3 Robert: you're probably right; it's just that morale gets used in other ways than the meaning I'm thinking of, too.

#4 Good post, Phil!
This Belmont Club guy is very good--the blogosphere's own Victor Davis Hanson.
I,too, posited on my blog that the new violence in Kosovo was linked to Spain's latest events.
Looks like it's open season for IslamoFascist terrorists in EUrope.
Damn. What an awful week.
If only the US, UK and NATO troops would change sides and help the Serbs!

#5 PROUFOUND PROUFOUND!!! How short sighted can we we be! We must MUST take a lesson fron the history books of the communist agenda to "take over the world" Lets all look at the profile that is now history "and remember history repeats itself" and take some pages out of Lennin for he was the "fire-brand" on the revolution ; Karl Marx was just the philosopher which agitated the masses: QUESTION? are we experiencing a parallell to the communist revolution but now in the name of dogmatic islamic (note the non capitalization) fundemalatist who belive that WORLD DOMINATION will be achived through murder and mayhem against civilized populations. In the early 19'hundreds Lennin, Trotsky, Bulganin, Beira, Stalin et-al would love to have been in the position al-quida is in today; the possibility of WORLD terrorisim, all they could hope for was what ended up as the ex "soviet-"NON" union" and that is all al-quida and their "rag-head" followers can hope for. I have but one lasting wish for them "GO TO FU%$#&)-HELL" JUST LIKE ALL YOUR FRIENDS: Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Idi Amin, and all the many others who thought that they could take over the human will to live and be free.
