Does this crap sway anybody? The answer must be yes. Otherwise, San Francisco wouldn’t exist.

Avatar is the kind of movie you get when you liberate a bunch of crazed Hollywood lefties from all financial constraints. With a $240 million budget, James Cameron managed to squeeze  every last Marxist fantasy into three hours of boring propaganda.

With the plot conveniently available on the Internet and no first rank stars, the balk of the money went into producing the special effects, with very impressive results. Not impressive enough, however, to offset the endless flow of anti-American, anti-capitalist, global warming claptrap.

The plot goes something like this. Capitalism, global warming and war destroy earth. Capitalists, aided by the Military, try to do the same to the beautiful, breath-taking planet Pandora. They are after – wait for it – unobtainium, because it sells for $20 million dollars a kilogram on the open market- about the same as a Hollywood star. We’ll never know why Earthmen need  unobtainium or why they are willing to pay so much for it. Apparently, it is just one of those things evil capitalist do. Read more >

Are you worried that a deeply disloyal soldier, who openly confessed allegiance to the Islamist enemy, managed to attain the rank of Major in the United States military? Chris Matthews isn’t.

Given the predisposition of the media against anything American, Christian or Israeli, it is not surprising that a Jihadi attack on an army base in Texas, by a devout Muslim, inspires (P)MSNBC to worry about rampant Islamophobia. It is impossible to miss Chris Matthews’ pandering to the Muslim overlords. The smirk on Nihad’s face, at the end, shows that he recognizes a subservient dhimmi when he sees one. Read more >

So, another Muslim stealth Jihadi shoots up an army base,  kills 11 soldiers and injures 31. Every sane person is thinking “Sudden Jihad Syndrome” or “Islamic terrorism”. Watching Fox News, we wait for the name. Does it start with an M? Two hour later Shlep Smith still refuses to reveal the identity of the attacker. We become suspicious. We check online. Jihad Watch and Debbie Schlussel both reveal that, yes, the shooter’s name is Major Nidal Malik Hasan (close enough). Now we know.

The cable channels, including Fox News, are twisting themselves into pretzels to avoid being accused of Islamophobia. Lou Dobbs invites a post traumatic stress disorder specialist to explain how combat can destroy a man’s mind. Too bad, Lou, Major Hasan served at Walter Reed Hospital. No combat, until today. On Fox, they are focusing on Nidal’s unhappiness at being deployed to Iraq. As if he is some sort of anti-war activist.

Col. Terry Lee (a co-worker), interviewed by both Shlep Smith and Sean Hannity, tries to explain, without invoking a fatwa, that Major Hasan is a Jihadi. Still, they twist it into a job dissatisfaction issue. Sean keeps stating the Hasan “did not want to go to war” and was “very upset about it.” Hasan, obviously did want to go to war. That is precisely what he did in Fort Hood. He conducted Jihad, a holy war, against America. He did not want to go to war against his Muslim brothers.

Inside Shlep Smiths empty mind there hides a really dumb news reader (think Ted Bexter), but he did let Col. Lee tell his story. Sean Hannity gingerly danced around the Jihad angle. Gretta did the best job, opening with Jihad as the likely motive. Will the media ever figure it out?

Major Hasan, who is apparently still alive and in custody, turns out to be a lousy psychiatrist. Read more >

Islamic extremists in the United States have traditionally set up shop in big cities with large Muslim populations: places like New York City, Dearborn, Michigan and even Washington, DC. But one secretive group is doing just the opposite.

They call themselves Muslims of America. They’ve established compounds throughout the rural U.S.A. They are said to have close ties to a violent Pakistani group named Jamaat Al-Fuqra. Both groups are led by the same extremist cleric: Sheikh Mubarak Gilani.

Enjoy two great video clips showing Israeli soldiers in action. Compare with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Saudi Arabia’s Shariah Police and the suicide bombers of Hamas.

Environment minister Jairam Ramesh asserted on Sunday in the presence of visiting US secretary of state Hillary Clinton that India would never take legally binding commitments to cut down on emissions.

“India’s position is clear and categorical that we are simply not in a position to take any legally binding emissions reductions,” Ramesh said at conference on climate change he addressed along with the visiting secretary of state to mark the opening of ITC’s Green Centre building in Gurgaon.

His remarks came against the backdrop of growing pressure on India and China from the US-led bloc of developed countries to take quantifiable targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh alluded to the growing US insistence that India relent on its stand not to accept targets.

Ramesh drew the red lines clearly. “There is simply no case for the pressure that we, who have been among the lowest emitters per capita, face to reduce emissions. And as if this pressure was not enough, we also face the threat of carbon tariffs on our exports to countries such as yours.”

An Israeli friend sent us these links to a performance by Shuli Rand. We have not heard of him until now, but if you understand Hebrew, this is quite a treat. Enjoy!

Thank you Senator Barbara Boxer for reminding us that Liberalism is at best soft Fascism. Liberals control your life, redistribute your wealth, beat you down, rape and pillage, then demand gratitude. They want to hear you say you love it. They want you to love Big Brother. Read more >

The Koran teaches that Muhammad was the perfect man, a role model for every believer to emulate. This is not some long forgotten abstraction that has been interpreted and re-interpreted for modern times. Pius Muslims in the twenty first century, as true believers have throughout the ages, follow this basic tenet of Islam. The problem is that, notwithstanding Obama’s apologetics, Allah’s lone prophet shared neither the Laws of Moses nor the compassion of Jesus. He raped and pillaged. He slaughtered and beheaded. He married and consummated sexual relations with a child. Then he recited Koranic Surahs teaching that his god had sanctioned all these vile acts. Read more >

We first heard it on the Hugh Hewitt radio show and found the link on Michelle Malkin’s Blog. It is possible to be pompous and ignorant at the same time. Senator Barbara Boxer, unlike Dr. Evil, does it gracelessly.
