And There's Other Stuff Going On In Real News, Too

Eh, you know the sites. Drudge, Lucianne, FoxNews, etc.

A lot of times I don't link big stories because 1, I imagine everyone knows about them, so why should I waste your time linking a story you already read? and 2, because I have nothing to add.

I mean, they rounded up nine bombing suspects in London. This is great news.

And that would be my comment: "Hey, guys, this is great news."

The suspected bomb-master has been detained in Zambia.

Again: "Hey, guys, this is really super news. I hope they hang him. That would be even more super."

So, nothing to add. Unless I could pull a Wretchard and analogize the capture of nine terrorist suspects to Darius' defense of Athens or somethin'. Which I can't. Was Darius even the king of Athens? I have no idea. So, right there, strike one.

Anyway... just letting everyone know, they're catching the terrorists. Yes, I know about it, and I'm not mentioning it because I figure you all do too.

Darius I, II and III ruled Persia.

Posted by: Bill from INDC on July 28, 2005 03:32 PM

Persia, by the way, was the arch-enemy of Athens.

You've essentially mistaken Stalin for a President of the United States. Good job.

Posted by: Pompous on July 28, 2005 03:34 PM

Still waiting for that Oliver Willis-Japanese fembot joke, btw.

Posted by: Bill from INDC on July 28, 2005 03:35 PM

Xerxes then. Who can keep them straight?

I sure can't.

Posted by: ace on July 28, 2005 03:36 PM

Me, a lowly Athenien? I shall crush you as the Spartans at Thermopylae.

Posted by: Xerxes on July 28, 2005 03:50 PM

Shame on you, Ace.

Posted by: Victor Davis Hanson on July 28, 2005 03:55 PM

Me, a lowly Athenien? I shall crush you as the Spartans at Thermopylae.

Whatever, Xerxes. An army of 120,000 retards could have defeated that picket of 300 man-touchers faster than you.

Oh, and your navy fought like pansies at Salamis, bitch.

Posted by: Themistocles on July 28, 2005 04:04 PM

Yeah, ok, I screwed the pooch on those.

Posted by: Xerxes on July 28, 2005 04:13 PM

Of course, it looks like they could have had him earlier but refused a US request to have him arrested while he was in South Africa CNN link. I'm sure the left will say it's really our fault, that but for Guantanamo Bay or Abu Ghraib or whatever, the British Government would have agreed to arrest him earlier. More here at ThoughtsOnline

Just want y'all to know that no matter which side wins, Athens is gonna blow it all up in less than a century.

Which is just one more reason why you never trust democrats with national defense.

Posted by: Thucydides on July 28, 2005 04:30 PM

Never fear, I shall come to Athens defense.

Posted by: Alcibiades on July 28, 2005 04:35 PM

Athenians are chumps.

Posted by: Lysander on July 28, 2005 04:43 PM

Everyone knows that Darius is the King of the Blowfish.

Posted by: Dman on July 28, 2005 05:12 PM

Darius was the Persian Emperor defeated by Alexander the Great which is (clears throat) an example of the 2000 years of war along the fault line between the East and the West running from the Bosporus down along the Euphrates to the Persian Gulf.

It is now time for the West to repeat the triumphs of Alexander and reclaim Constantinople, Antioch and Alexandria from the nomad sand naxis.

We've come for the women!

Posted by: Testiclese on July 28, 2005 05:38 PM

Holy shit, this comments section is like nerd camp.

Hey Bill, you know a hoplites second favorite activity? Bend over.

Posted by: Lycurgus on July 28, 2005 06:05 PM

I think it's HILARIOUS. Uh oh :)

Posted by: Dianne on July 28, 2005 06:47 PM

(rhythm: anapests; or, if you wanna look at it that way, iambic hexameter)

The feeble-minds who fill the board with taunts historical/

Would be more usefully employed behind a glory hole/

It's true that Athens fucked it up, the mob just got too greedy/

But still all good conservatives must not neglect the needy.

Fa fa faaaa.

Posted by: Aristophanes on July 28, 2005 06:49 PM

Pardon me. That's octameter catalectic, not hexameter.

My man Pericles had that illegal alien problem licked. Malkin would be all over him.

Hyperbolus BETRAYED Athens!

This is a DISASTER for our city!!!

Posted by: Albert F. Kleon, Jr. on July 28, 2005 06:57 PM

I went to nerd camp. Trust me, this is better.

For one thing, we can't smell each other.

Posted by: Knemon on July 28, 2005 06:58 PM

Hey, Lycurgas, you're mom's a Messenian helot.

Got a problem with that? You can have your butt-boy Cleombrotus meet me outside Leuctra after school to settle it.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

Podcast: CBD and Sefton talk Orban losing, but is it the end of Hungary? The Irish start a brawl, but is it enough, Pope Leo wades into politics, Trump calls Iran's bluff and blockades Hormuz, Artemis II! Swallwell is scum, and more!
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera
Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite

I wouldn't click on it, it's not interesting, it's just stupid clickslop. I just want to share my annoyance with you.
Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.
