And still over the target. The worst days of cancel culture seem to be past us, at least for now, but don’t be misled into thinking that the leftist establishment has suddenly grown respectful of opposing points of view and willing to let them be heard in a free marketplace of ideas, in which informed citizens determine which competing […]
Why the Media Is Desperate to Help Iran Win
U.S. dollar now worth 2 million Iranian rials. No, that’s not a misprint. Iran’s jihadist leaders keep declaring victory (and the media keeps declaring victory on their behalf) while their currency is approaching Venezuelan or Zimbabwean levels of viability. For the first time in history, the US dollar has reached 2 million rials as the Iranian […]
In Europe Today, Signs of Decline Are Everywhere
The French writer Guy Millière offers a tour d’horizon of Europe today, where the signs of decline are everywhere. More of his grim view can be found here: “Europe in Free Fall,” by Guy Millière, Gatestone Institute, August 23, 2026: On February 14, 2026, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a laudatory speech about Europe and […]
Somali Pirates Hijack Iran Tanker
I never thought that I would have anything good to say about Somali pirates. From Hitler vs. Stalin to Alien vs. Predator, from Shiite vs. Sunni to Al Qaeda vs. ISIS, in Tolkien’s high-minded words, “Oft evil will shall evil mar”. And so, Somali pirates have been making a comeback and their target of choice […]
More Nonsense From Erdogan
U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack has a number of strange observations about Israel’s strike on the Abu al-Duhur military base and more: “Israel ‘baited’ Turkey with Abu al-Duhur airbase ‘pre-election’ strike, US Envoy Tom Barrack says,” by Idan Kweller, Jerusalem Post, August 22, 2026: According to Barrack, US President Donald Trump recently asked Erdogan […]
Marvel actors want ‘Palestinian’ jihad mass murderer released
Moral inversion on a massive scale. These actors only know what their leftist handlers tell them, and have no idea what genocidal hatred and bloodlust they’re fronting for. They think, in their shallow and uninformed Marxism, that they’re standing with the oppressed against the oppressor. One day, those they’re enabling may turn on them. They […]
Feminist Palestinian Org on Campuses Fueling Antisemitism, Accuses Israel of ‘Organ Harvesting,’ ‘Dog Rape’
The Palestinian Feminist Collective (PFC) operates as a so-called “feminist” organization “committed to achieving Palestinian social and political liberation by confronting systemic gendered, sexual, and colonial violence, oppression, and dispossession.” It is not, however, committed to gender equality and human rights when it comes to brutality committed in Islam or in the Palestinian territories. The […]
Pakistan: Muslim cleric claims jihad leader sent 10,000 jihad terrorists into Kashmir
The dispute between India and Pakistan over Jammu and Kashmir is much like the dispute between the Israelis and the “Palestinians.” It’s not really over land in the sense of simply being an ownership dispute; instead, it is rooted in Islamic theology. It’s about the principle that any land once ruled under Islamic law belongs […]
Tom Barrack Has the Middle East Situation Backwards
U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack has had a lot to say about the Israeli strike on the Abu al-Duhur military base: “Israel ‘baited’ Turkey with Abu al-Duhur airbase ‘pre-election’ strike, US Envoy Tom Barrack says,” by Idan Kweller, Jerusalem Post, August 22, 2026: According to Barrack, Israel raised the concern with the United States […]
Indonesia: Crowd screams ‘harder’ as four people are whipped 100 times each for adultery
There is no compassion, much less forgiveness, in Islam. Muslims are to be “ruthless” to the unbeliever and merciful to one another (48:29), but when a Muslim transgresses against a Sharia provision, that mercy is seldom, if ever, in evidence. The fear that ensures obedience must be kept alive. “The caning so severe even the […]
