A Reality-Based

Online Journal

When war is declared, truth is the first casualty.
--Arthur Ponsonby

You must think I can't tell when somebody's pissin' on my boot and callin' it a rain storm.
--Annoymous U.S. Cavalry Officer

Rain Storm was created as a means to apply historical perspective and military experience to the political and military adventures of the previous U.S. administration.

It is written from the perspective of one who was once a soldier, who studied war, and who believes that those who would send American troops to shed blood on foreign soil should also know something about war themselves, and not just be think-tank weenies playing international power games. After the 2008 election, Rain Storm took a long break,

Legal notice: Nothing written on Rain Storm, an online journal of opinion and culture, was written with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person who visits this site.
Anyone who suspects they are becoming annoyed, abused, threatened, or harassed as a result of reading the postings on this site is mistaken. They may, in fact, be outright delusional. We recommend such persons seek professional help immediately. The same goes for anyone who believes that George W. Bush was keeping us safe, or that Rush Limbaugh really would have joined the military if he hadn't had that huge boil on his ass.
