Did you hear the one about the Gaza Jihad class? Teacher, strapped in a suicide belt, “Listen up, kids! I am only going to do this once.”

The long term problem Israel faces emanates from the demographic realities on the ground. With 65% of the Gaza population consisting of crazed teenagers, nursed on Jihad ideology from the crib, it is not possible for any leader in Arab occupied Israel to sue for peace. Read more >

Bill Clinton was preoccupied with dropping his pants in front of strange women in hotel rooms. Tony Blair was a typical spineless eurocract (but not spineless enough for the position of EU President). George w. Bush – oh, how it pains us to say this – should have stuck to heavy drinking and never run for political office. As leader of the West during the early stages of a no-holds-barred struggle for survival, he failed to name the enemy, did not articulate a strategy for victory and could not unite the people in battle.

Bush’s mismanagement of the the war did more damage to America than his eight-year spending spree. Fiscal conservatives say that he spent like a drunken sailor. At least sailors spend their own money and when they are not spending they defend us from crazed Jihadis. They know the enemy and are not afraid to name him.

Since the Islamist attack on 9/11/01, many Western leaders have been telling their people that “Islam means peace”, that the terrorists have hijacked the religion and that there are no Islamic terrorists. More recently, Barack Hussein Obama decreed that there are no terrorists. According to Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano, Americans are the terrorists.

So what is the truth about Islam? Is it peaceful or is it violent? Is it a religion, like Judaism and Christianity, or is it a cult with a dangerous supremacist ideology? Does it treat women with dignity and respect or does its institutionalize female subservience and wife beating? Is Sharia Law just or is it a savage dogma that codifies the inferior status of infidels? Does Islam promote Utopian multiculturalism or does it relegate Jews and Christians to Dhimmi status? In Muslim countries, are Jews and Christians accepted as equals or are they forced to pay the jizya tax to their Muslim overlords in willing submission? If Muslims become the majority in America will they really oppress everybody else?

Relying primarily on Islam’s own sources, the documentary What the West Needs to Know shows that Islam is a violent, expansionary ideology that seeks the destruction of all other faiths. Muhammad, founder of the world’s most violent religion, started his career as a prophet by exterminating the Jews of Yathrib (Medina). Later he banished both Judaism and Christianity from Arabia. He personally beheaded hundreds of vanquished Jews, distributing their wives as concubines to Allah’s holy warriors. On his dying bed, he ordered his followers to maintain an apartheid State in Arabia. Read more >

Eurabia supplanted Europe and kafiya clad Islamists replaced fascist Brown Shirts. Once again, European elites feel comfortable lecturing America on morality and shamelessly enabling Jew killing in “Palestine”. They want you to forgot that their parents slaughtered six million Jews because they feared racial and cultural “contamination”. Ironically, today’s self-righteous Euro wusses will soon be living under sharia, laboring as subservient dhimmis, second class citizens, in a caliphate run by bearded men from Arabia. God sure has a sense of humor.

An Israeli friend sent us a scanned copy of an illuminating Swiss caricature published in Nebelspalters, Zurich, November 18, 1956 with the caption Israel’s “Aggression”. In the wake of World War II, Europeans recognized the evil savagery lurking just beneath the cultured veneer of their old Civilization. For a brief moment they acknowledged the superiority of America and accepted Jews as human beings.

If you are under sixty, you may not recognize the cast. The Israeli character with funny hair surrounding a bald head is David Ben-Gurion, founder of the Jewish state and it’s first prime minister. The mischievous guy with the big grin is Gamal Abdel Nasser,  Egypt’s “President for Life” at the time. The audience consists of Arabs, Soviet Commies, Turks and other Muslims. The vicious dog represents the Palestinians. Enjoy.

If there is anything funnier than holier-than-thou German youths, whose grandparents murdered six million Jews and would have destroyed the planet if America didn’t stop them, preaching morality to America, it is sickening sanctimonious British metro-sexual dhimmis lecturing Jews on how to treat Arabs.

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.”

It’s been a mixed week for Obama, with his approval rating index in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll remaining in negative territory (30% strongly approve, 37% strongly disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of –7).

The economy is the overriding issue for most Americans, once again taking the top spot on a list of 10 important voter issues. But interest in health care has surged and is now at its highest level in nearly two years.

Opposition appears to be growing to the reform plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats: 49% of voters now at least somewhat oppose it, while 46% at least somewhat favor it. Just two weeks ago, those numbers were reversed: 50% were for the reform plan, and 45% were opposed.

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 >

Friends,

What’s in a word? While it is true that a “rose by any other name would smell as sweet,” as a writer, I believe that using the correct words are important. As George Orwell taught us, it is the difference between truth and lie, freedom and slavery.

And so, for years I complained about the euphemisms used by leftist journalists who couldn’t bring themselves to write the words “Islamic terrorist” when buses and Passover Seders blew up, even though that is who the perpetrators were.

They were called militants, or grieving brothers, or activists. You name it. Now it seems that the U.S. government is following suit, because fighting terror seems so politically incorrect these days. A great article from Susan M. Reyto, a lover of freedom, who survived horrific experiences in Communist Hungary. Go to the link and leave a comment. Naomi.  Read more >

Jewish wedding ceremonies – joyous occasions, are marked by sorrow over the loss of Jerusalem. The groom recites a biblical verse from the Babylonian Exile: “If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning,” and breaks a glass in commemoration of the destruction of the Temples.

Canaanite tribes were the first settlers in what was then appropriately named Canaan. In the second millennium BC, twelve Hebrew tribes, originating in Mesopotamia, settled in the land, establishing the Kingdom of Israel.

In 638 AD, Jerusalem was conquered by the Muslim Caliph Omar. In 691 AD, the Omaia Caliph Abed El-Malik built the Dome of the Rock mosque on the Temple Mount. After this theft of a holy site Muslims started claiming that it belongs to them. Jews, of course, have been hoping for centuries that the stolen property would be returned. Read more >
