All the Troubles of the Middle East, In One Little Country
By: Sarah Stern and Kyle Shideler There is a country in the Middle East accused of a brutal decades-long occupation. A country where a blockade causes starvation among a civilian refugee population. A country which violently cracks down on those who oppose it, shooting into crowds of protestors, while it receives substantial aid money from the United States as an ally... »
Theater on the High Seas: Who in the Audience is being Duped?
by: Sarah Stern and Kyle Shideler Earlier this month we watched as the high seas had become the theater for staging yet another hate-infested anti-Israel drama, costumed in heart-rendering, humanitarian language. This premeditated performance had been cynically calculated to pirate the international sympathy for the people who in open and democratic elections, freely elected the terrorist group Hamas to lead them. It... »
Deporting the “Son of Hamas?”
In what is arguably one of the most lame-brain decisions coming out of a government agency, in our time, The Wall Street Journal Saturday warns that the Homeland Security Department is now attempting to deport Mosab Hassan Yousef, author of 'Son of Hamas' the best-selling autobiography about Yousef's time working alongside Israeli intelligence to break up Hamas terror attacks.

The public's image of spies has tended more towards Chevy Chase in the 1985 comedy, "Spies Like Us" than Sean Connery in "From Russia with Love." Indeed America's most famous intelligence officer, Nathan Hale, whose statue resides outside the CIA's Langley headquarters, is primarily remembered for... »

Sometimes in America, 2+2=5
"Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two makes four," writes George Orwell's protagonist Winston Smith in 1984. "If that is granted, all else follows." At around 2:30 pm Eastern Standard Time, Maj. Malik Nidal Hasan (alternately given as Nidal Malik Hasan) entered the Soldier Readiness Center at Fort Hood, and allegedly opened fire with two handguns killing thirteen, and... »
Hotels and Radical Islam
An interesting article in the Wall Street Journal (H/T NRO), on the subject of why exactly Islamist terrorists like to target hotels. The answer, of course, is ideological: Nor would any international hotel dream of privileging one faith over another. By contrast, under the radical Islamic worldview Muslims are entitled to special privileges. This worldview provides the underlying principle for such... »
