Fake Military profiles on Yahoo
I have had a several people over the past 5 months contact me about fake military and fake police yahoo IDs. The major complaint is the person posing as police or military send disturbing and hateful messages to military personnel and their friends.
If you have been a victim of one of these hate mongers with fake IDs. Always feel free to contact me and I will do the best I can to help shut the haters yahoo page down.
I recommend leaving the hate message on your page and contact me and yahoo "report abuse" at yahoo report abuse be sure and mention it is a hate message and leave it on your page so they and I can see and investigate it. I would also say it may be good if you note a response weather it be in mypage comments or Blog comments leave a message adjacent to it and Note that you have contacted yahoo in regards to the message and for your friends to be patient and aware of why you left the hate message. Give us week sometimes longer.
Also do not contact or leave a message on a hate mongers site/Blog. They feed off that and you basically are putting fuel on the fire and giving them what they want. Put the profile on ignore so the person can not re-post to your page and let your friends know. Often times the hate mongers will target your friends list if you do leave a comment on their page. So you can see its best to leave it to reporting the abuse for you and your friends sake. One thing you can do is make a fake ID if you wish to expose a fake ID. Then they wont be able to go after your friends. Also if you get a second ID shut down well np eh..... you still have your main yahoo ID and your friends intact.
If you have any questions please ask. It is hard for me to write all the things to know and do, since I come from such a strange perspective and background. Often times I just take certain information that I may know for granted, and think it is common sense or public knowledge. So Please ask me questions. Even if its about how to start a business or just how to save money on taxes, or about military capabilities/tactics, or terrorists capabilities and tactics.
As always Best Wishes,

Michael Yon - Drilling for Justice
Baqubah
by Michael Yon
There is much work to do here, especially if the Iraqi Police continue to perform below expectations. The absence of strong local leadership is a large part of the reason AQI was able to move in and set up a shadow government in Baqubah, complete with its own court system, torture house and prison. These three pegs of the AQI justice system have been found here in the past week. The judges who administer Sharia law and issue fatwas are called Muftis. A Mufti is a âhigh value targetâ because he would have deep connections in AQI in order to have such a trusted position of power.
Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) had tarnished its name here by publicly attacking and murdering children, videotaping beheadings, all while imposing harsh punishments on Iraqi civilians found guilty of violating morality laws prohibiting activities like smoking. The AQI installed Sharia court had sanctioned the amputation of the two âsmoking fingersâ for those who violated anti-smoking laws. In part because local sentiment was shifting against it, AQI synthesized with other groups and undertook an image makeover, christening itself âThe Islamic State of Iraq.â But the new name was just lipstick on a pig here.

As Funding Increases, Afghan Forces Range From Ragtag to Ready
KABUL, Afghanistan â Faizal Karim, a sophomore at the National Military Academy here, stood outside a classroom holding his English-language homework assignment. For a group of cadets nearby, a lecture in physics was ending.
Bright-eyed, articulate and in a four-year course modeled after the United States Military Academy at West Point, Mr. Karim is a hopeful face in Afghanistanâs nascent national security forces. He is 21 and rejects the Taliban. âI want to serve my countryâs people,â he said, speaking in confident English.
But several days before, an altogether different side of Afghanistanâs security forces was evident when a Dutch and Afghan patrol visited a police compound in Oruzgan Province. The police officers there were cultivating poppy within the compoundâs walls, openly participating in the heroin trade. The Afghan Army squad that visited them, itself only partly equipped, did nothing.
These wildly contrasting glimpses of Afghanistanâs security forces illustrate the mix of achievements and frustrations that have accompanied international efforts to create a capable Afghan Army and a police force after decades of disorder and war. They also underscore the urgency behind the renewed push to recruit and train these units, which is now under way with an influx of equipment and training approved by the Bush administration last year.
Yet, even after several years of efforts to create new army and police units, it remains difficult to fully assess their readiness. Some units, especially in the army, are motivated and much better equipped than any Afghan forces were five years ago. Others, especially in the police, remain visibly ragtag, underequipped, disorganized, of uncertain loyalty and with links to organized drug rings.
American officials say it will take at least a few years before most of the Afghan forces become more ready and reliable, and perhaps a decade before they are capable of independent operations. But they also say that the resources and plans are now in place to make such ambitions possible.
