One American special operations soldier was killed and four were wounded in a firefight with al-Shabaab terrorists in southwestern Somalia on Friday.

A Muslim living in Williamsburg, Virginia, who told an undercover federal agent he wanted to carry out jihad attacks was just sentenced to five years in prison after it was revealed he lied to try and join the U.S. military.

Chaplains in the 101st Airborne Division have fired the longstanding Jewish lay leaders at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, allegedly without providing any reason, effectively ending Friday night Shabbat services for Jewish soldiers and their families.

I have been informed there will be a special clemency hearing for Sgt. Derrick Miller on April 4th. Apparently, all the calls, emails and letters written by all of you on Derrick’s behalf led to this “special” hearing.

Eleven U.S. Marines were affected in a Hazmat incident at Fort Meyer, located in Northern Virginia near the Pentagon.

President Trump, I ask you again to show mercy toward Derrick and free him to go home to his family. Derrick acted to save the lives of his men.

Why we should be concerned about the attack on Bab Touma ?

Because the area attacked symbolises the very foundations of Christianity, and the incident was a reminder of how mistaken the government’s Syria policy is.

A man was arrested after he allegedly rammed his car into the gates at a Royal Air Force base used by the U.S. Air Force on Monday that prompted a brief lockdown and personnel to open fire.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, and especially to our Gold Star Families and all our Warriors serving now. We are so very grateful for your service and sacrifice. We pray for your safety.

U.S. troops deploying to Afghanistan were taught for years that child sex abuse is a “culturally accepted practice” in the country, and were provided no guidance that it constituted a violation of the law and human rights until late 2015.

Have a history of self-mutilation? How about bipolar issues? No problem — the U.S. Army will now take you, at least, for a limited time.

Today we honor the men and women who have fought for this nation. Pray for them.

Unbelievable. The powers-who-be in the U.S. Army are seriously considering awarding the traitor Bowe Bergdahl with $300,000 in back pay.

Authorities have been silent about this horror since it happened on October 6. Here is what we do know – a military vehicle ran into a formation of troops in a training area of the Army’s largest basic training center.” That’s it. The victims have been named – not the driver of the death vehicle.

Unlike President Obama, who aided and abetted the Islamic State, President Trump is vanquishing the enemy. Clearly it’s easier to dispatch the Islamic menace in Iraq and Syria than it is in the beltway, the media and academia. But they must vanquished here, too.

President Donald Trump has announced a ban on transgenders serving in the U.S. military.

Enough with the social experimentation ongoing in our nation’s military. Now females are expected to shower with males — all in the name of transgender equality?

America’s top military commander in Iraq warned that the ousting of ISIS from Mosul doesn’t end the war — that an “ISIS 2.0” could very well be lurking.

Three American Sons were murdered by a jihadi they were ordered to trust and train.

U.S. Rep. Brian Babin (R-TX) sent a letter to President Trump last week requesting a full review of each case involving any U.S. service member who is currently imprisoned in U.S. prisons for certain actions taken during combat in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Terrorists and their supporters are honored and heralded at universities, parades and media puff pieces while American heroes rot in prison. America 2017.

This day we remember the fallen heroes who died fighting for our freedom.

This is the very behavior that is causing the deaths of our Veterans in desperate need of care

I recently received this shocking letter from a man who has served as a contractor in Afghanistan. It reveals the appalling extent of sharia compliance in the United States military.

Sgt. Miller sits in Leavenworth Prison with a life sentence for premeditated murder for killing an Afghan he had stopped previously for surveilling his base in a hostile zone. These actions saved the lives of Derrick’s brothers.

Last week Green Beret Sergeant 1st Class Charles Martland was discharged for hitting alleged Afghan child rapist. It was an abomination. Martland said, “Kicking me out of the army is morally wrong and the entire country knows it.” Martland was not the exception but the rule. I communicated with a Sargeant who said. “I will…

Yesterday I posted an appeal to help the family of Sgt Derrick Miller’s family visit him in Leavenworth. Sgt Miller is one of the Leavenworth 10, serving time for his defensive actions on the battlefield in Afghanistan. More on Sgt Miller’s story here. Bev Perlson talked with Sgt. Miller’s mother last night at 8:30, she…

While Obama releases jihadists and Taliban senior commanders from GITMO, our soldiers who fought for our freedom in Afghanistan and Iraq are rotting in US prisons. I wrote of Derrick Miller here. And the Leavenworth 10 here. Help Derrick Miller’s family visit him this Christmas. I did. Go here. Donate. Bev Perlson wrote me this:…

While President Obama frees vicious jihadists and killers from GITMO and refuses to go after the murderers in Benghazi, many brave US troops still rot in US prisons for their actions in defense of this country in Afghanistan or Iraq. This grave injustice cannot stand. It’s enough. Let our sons, our brothers, our fathers, our…

The jihad for Taliban terrorists trade is illustrative of where Obama’s sympathies lie. A known deserter-cum-jihadist is a priority of the Obama administration. And Obama makes “no apologies” for this sedition. Meanwhile, brave and heroic US soldiers rot in American prisons for violating Obama’s pro-jihadi rules of engagement. Free the Leavenworth 10. The Leavenworth 10,…

Bombing at West Point. Go over to WND and read my take on Obama’s empty, un-American rhetoric at West Point. It makes more sense now in light of Obama’s traitor for Taliban trade.

Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum was mad busy today. So were all of the Fleet Week related events. I guess that we should be grateful that Dear Leader didn’t cancel Fleet Week again, as he did last year. But it was seriously pared down, with only three naval ships and two Coast Guard cutters,…

It took too long, but thank Gd, Behenna is free. Five long terrible years. But Michael Behenna was freed today. GITMO enemy combatants were freed sooner. Thirty-year-old Michael Behenna was granted parole in February after serving five years of his 15-year sentence for unpremeditated murder in a combat zone.

This is Obama's idea of victory in Afghanistan. Our sons and daughters……..so much collateral damage in the Obama's Post-America. Here's just one story. One terrible story replayed over and over and over. The killer of this great American hero in another green on blue attack was Aynoddin, the 19 year old "tea boy" of Afghan…

Obama is never going to lift a prayer mat to help Michael Behenna, but Mitt Romney might. Romney must be urged to act and right this godawful miscarriage of justice. Behenna is a hero; he shot a known al-qaeda killer. We are all safer because Lt Michael Behenna fought for us. Here is part of…

There is something horribly wrong in America when a soldier is jailed for killing the enemy. The criminalization of our heroes is the liberal wet dream and the goal of the enemy, Islamic supremacists. Indeed, they make common cause of their hatred of the good. Lt. Behenna shot a known al qaeda killer on the…

Tea Party Fort Lauderdale and AnyStreet.org invited me to Florida to speak yesterday. Johana Von Hohenzollern, Danita Kilcullen  and Jack Gillies organized the events. The house was packed, sold out. Joining me were spectacular Americans, my dear delicious friends Joyce Kaufman (who introduced me), Katie O'Malley, Bev Perlson (Band of Mothers) ….and other conservative luminaries,…

The latest development, a terrible twist, in an already gross miscarriage of justice. I have blogged periodically on the outrageous persecution of Lt. Michael Behenna. I thought he would at least get a fair trial with the new evidence. This wonderful soldier killed a known terrorist, a bloody savage in the war against the West…

I, too, had the great pleasure to hear Col. John T. Carney speak at the David Horowitz Center’s Restoration Weekend. Much thanks to J.

There is something terribly wrong in America when our soldiers' voting rights are systematically destroyed under this administration. These men and women are putting their lives on the line every day and dying in record numbers under Obama's crippling rules of engagement. And how does Obama thank them? By making sure their vote doesn't count….

I just got this emergency action alert from the magnificent Bev Perlson of the Band of Mothers, who bseeched us, "Please read my email below, sent to all military liaisons of the House Armed Services Committee (except for a few who either did not answer their phones Friday and one that would not give me…

Please check out my OBL oped piece at Big Government. I think it very telling that Obama insists to us that it is not about Islam (!) and that bin Laden is "not a Muslim leader," but he ensured that bin Laden's body was handled in accord with Islamic tradition; further, we are warned of…

The line separating mosque and state becomes increasingly blurred. Why does the government feel as if we have to buy Muslim garb, religious clothes, and Muslim books for children, if it's for our troops? Americans suffering over 10% unemployment, and this is where our looted hard-earned money is going? Who is this for? This was…

US forces have entered Syria. Not a surprise considering Syria, as a proxy for Iran, has been undermining our efforts in Iraq since the onset of the liberation of Iraq and decisive action was long overdue. Many of our boys have died because of the foreign fighters and border skirmishes Syria has been engaging in….
