Israelis arrest 82 jihadists in West Bank
The Gaza withdrawal has enabled Israel to move decisively against the jihadists: they have shown good faith, and it has been answered only with scorn, triumphalism, and violence.

Jerusalem Man Kidnapped and Murdered by Hamas
Hamas again indulges its taste for murdering innocent civilians — in this case, the owner of a candy factory.

D.C. Watson speaks truth to power: While many Muslims in the U.S. simply go about their business and mean no harm to anyone, many other Muslims are continually stating that they are offended by our policies and our behavior.
