Obama the Diplomat vs. the NORK Reich

Kim Jong-il’s regime is even weirder and more despicable than you thought. - By Christopher Hitchens - Slate Magazine
Here are the two most shattering facts about North Korea. First, when viewed by satellite photography at night, it is an area of unrelieved darkness. Barely a scintilla of light is visible even in the capital city. […]



The start of a revolution or housecleaning?

Four arrested after Iran prosecutor assassinated
Four people have been arrested after an Iranian state prosecutor was shot dead outside his home in northern Iran.
Vali Hajgholizadeh, who reports say had a reputation for fighting corruption, was killed in the town of Khoy near the Turkish border.
I was thinking that the Mullahs had simply removed […]



Some things we take for granted.

With Iran On the Brink, A Young Woman Asks: Where Is the Western Media?
I cannot use my real name. If the freedom of expressive condemnation practiced in this article were associated with my name I would never be permitted to return home. Dozens of family members would be in danger of interrogation and […]



The new Shah in town.

It’s actually an insult to the Shah. Iran opposition leaders face execution - Khamenei aide
A representative of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Tuesday opposition leaders were “enemies of God” who should be executed under the country’s sharia law.
Not just “enemies of the State” or “enemies of the People”.
“If Britain does not stop […]



Moronic Dumbass

Iraq vs. Iran: Implications for U.S. Strategy - John P. Hannah - The Corner on National Review Online
A few thoughts regarding Friday’s seizure of an Iraqi oilfield by Iranian forces:

Critics of the Bush administration often assert that, in liberating Iraq from Saddam Hussein’s tyranny, America handed the country to Iran on a silver platter, making […]



Not At All, Is My Guess

Investors.com - The Taliban’s Shadowy Partners
“Saudi Arabia today remains the location where more money is going to terrorism — to Sunni terror groups and the Taliban — than any other place in the world,” testified Stuart Levey, Treasury undersecretary.
It is this sort of thing that leads intelligent Americans to wonder why morons like George W. […]



What Would You Expect?

Hijab in Bolivia - Mona Charen - The Corner on National Review Online
On Wednesday, November 24, Iranian demands that female nurses don the hijab in response to Iran’s providing $1.2 million for funding of the new El Alto city hospital in Bolivia sparked a national outcry among women’s rights advocates within Bolivia.
And did the […]



Saudi Wahabbia

How’s that Saudi Rehab Program for Gitmo Detainees Working Out? - Andy McCarthy - The Corner on National Review Online
At the Long War Journal, Tom Joscelyn has another success story rung up by the brilliant project to wean jihadists off jihad by sending them to … a “rehabilitation” program in Saudi Arabia (where Wahhabism is […]



Nuclear Blackmail: Coming Soon to a Europe Near You

IRAN: Outrage, and a warning, over Swiss vote to ban minarets | Babylon & Beyond | Los Angeles Times

An East-West clash over a Swiss referendum last week banning the construction of mosque minarets heated up today as Iran’s foreign minister warned of unspecified “consequences” if the ban were enforced.
It’s bad enough that these Muslim barbarian […]



Wouldn’t You?

Cold Fury » Liberal “solution” in full effect at Ft Hood
This government is of course promoting the insipid and dangerous Holy Writ of political correctness at all costs, up to and including American lives. And Congress will do no more and no less than it’s done all along: cheerleading the blockhead PC insanity and relentlessly […]



So What Happens If…?

Roger’s Rules » Where are the Purple Hearts? Some Truths About Fort Hood
New Yorkers, too, will be able to rest more easily now that the Obama administration has decided to remove 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other terrorist conspirators from the jurisdiction of the military and hand them over to a New York […]



Bottom Line

Same Old, Same Old at Fort Hood by Victor Davis Hanson on National Review Online
Mere mention that such killers typically voiced radical Islamic or virulently anti-Semitic themes often can earn one charges of Islamaphobia, racism, or other illiberal biases. Indeed, I expect dozens of angry, accusatory letters in response to this column.
So what? I’ve […]



What He Says

Let Them Fight or Bring Them Home: The Letter that Started Everything
President Obama has seen fit to replace the sitting ISAF commander with a General McChrystal (see Bio at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_A._McChrystal). Suffice it to say that Gen McChrystal’s understanding of the Warrior ethos is somewhat askew from the mainstream. Also let us cut to the chase […]



After 2002, The Fall of Turkey Was Inevitable

RealClearWorld - How Turkey Was Lost to the West
The Bush administration ignored the warnings of secular Turkish leaders in the country’s media, military and diplomatic corps that Erdogan was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Rather than pay attention to his past attempts to undermine Turkey’s secular, pro-Western character and treat him with a modicum of […]



Taliban Enterprising in Raising Money

Islam In Action: Official: Taliban Better Financed Than al-Qaida
“We assess that al-Qaida is in its weakest financial condition in several years, and that, as a result, its influence is waning,” Cohen said at the conference, sponsored by the American Bankers Association and the American Bar Association.
But Cohen cautioned that situation could reverse quickly because a […]



Feinstein Smacks Obama

Gateway Pundit: Feinstein Blasts Obama For Poo-Pooing Gen. McChrystal’s Troop Recommendations (Video)
Senator Dianne Feinstein (Dem.- Calif.) blasted the Nobel Peace Winner today for ignoring his top general’s troop recommendations as soldiers continue to die in Afghanistan.
I think Obama’s attempts to encroach on Congress’ control of its own agendas is generating some blowback, which is being […]



Did I Mention That Appeasement Never Works?

JammieWearingFool
Last week Barack Obama decided to defund an organization called the Iran Human Rights Documentation Center and it hasn’t taken long to see the effects. Yesterday the Iranians announced the sentencing to death of 3 people who participated in the street protests in the wake of the recent elections and today comes word that they […]



Appeasement Never Works

Michelle Malkin » Nobel Appease Prize fireworks: North Korea launches more missiles, Iran scoffs
History has taught us over and over again that appeasement of tyrants and agressors never works, but only encourages them to continue in their aggression, or even up the ante.
We have a gutless pussy in the White House. History will remember […]



The Likelihood Of The Dark(er) Side…

Over at the always-interesting Maggie’s Farm, Bruce Kesler posted a friend’s view on what seems an all-too-likely - and altogether darker - true rationale for the Nobel Committee’s undeserved award, calling it the “Taliban Peace Prize For Obama”.
Based on the description in the post, said friend seems rather well qualified to expound on the subject. […]



Stephen Green Explains “Muddling Through”

Vodkapundit » Muddling Through
Steve explains what he means by the term. I still don’t really think that he defines the meaning of “victory,” so much as he explains a strategy for remaining in Afghanistan and gathering intel and killing bad guys.
He describes Afghanistan as being “not so much a country as it […]



Bint Backs Boodle for Bribes

Pelosi says new tax is ‘on the table’ - The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room
A new value-added tax (VAT) is “on the table” to help the U.S. address its fiscal liabilities, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Monday night.
Pelosi, appearing on PBS’s “The Charlie Rose Show” asserted that “it’s fair to look at” the VAT as […]



Scum and Victory

Mud Men: Polanski & Le Miserable Patrick Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times @ AMERICAN DIGEST
To my mind, stealing a loaf of bread to feed a starving sister and your family doesn’t quite track with drugging and anally raping a minor. Perhaps it does to Goldstein who may well cherish an incident of being anally […]



Ed Who?

Instapundit » Blog Archive » ED BERNERO: Polanski Apologists Don’t Speak For All Of Us In Hollywood….
Yeah. Just all the people in Hollywood you’ve ever, you know, heard of.



Talk About Your “Dirty Bombs”…

I somehow previously missed this new technique in suicide bombing, courtesy of the Free Internet Press: Al-Qaeda Claims Attack That Injured Saudi Prince
How…interesting.
Not only for the fact that Al Qaeda claims to have originated this attack on the Saudis…in a Saudi palace…
But also for the particular technique of bomb concealment used:
Al-Arabiya, a Saudi-owned television network, […]



Shocked, Etc.

Reuters AlertNet - UAE seized N.Korea arms shipment bound for Iran
Diplomats said both North Korea and Iran appeared to be in breach of Security Council resolution 1874, which banned all arms exports from North Korea and authorized states to search suspicious ships and seize and destroy banned items.
Yeah, like anybody pays any attention to “UN […]
