To the Editor: By pointing to Islam’s respect for law, peaceful co-existence and human rights, Dr. Gomaa elegantly answers the West’s preoccupation with the question “Where are the [Islamic] moderates?” A number of questions loom, however. First and foremost: has this important statement been published widely in Arabic? I doubt it

The Human Rights Council at the United Nations has now banned any criticism regarding Sharia Law and human rights in the Islamic World.

Of Good and Evil – Solzhenitsyn on Appeasement

August 7, 2008

Solzhenitsyn died last Sunday at age 89, the Russian historian who singlehandedly documented the fascist excess of Russian communism and totalitarianism, a dictatorship of terror that caused the deaths of 60 million innocents. His book The Gulag Archipelago (1973) finally buried the West’s infatuation with things socialist, with politics Karl Marxian. With clairvoyant intuition that [...]

Obama – The Talk of the Town

July 31, 2008

Barack Obama – the toast of the intelligentsia from Malibu to Hollywood. I used to find his oratory impressive and commanding, his message of hope persuasive and compelling. Now I find my attention to his rhetoric wanes with every repetitive exhortation for change. Independents seeking political satisfaction come away frustrated with what they see as [...]

Negotiating with terrorists and with authoritarian regimes is often in the news these days. Opinions fly fast and wide about the relative merits of sitting down with this or that unsavory character. Yet we have only to glance at the latest news to receive a litany of reality checks. Robert Mugabe came to power using [...]

Exchange of Prisoners – An Absurd Imbalance

July 3, 2008

I read that Israel is giving up five prisoners including Samir Kuntar, the convicted Lebanese terrorist who received a sentence of 542 years in prison for his infamous role in the 1979 infiltration into the quiet coastal town of Nahariya where he butchered a young Israeli father, Danny Haran, in front of his four-year-old daughter, [...]

Obama’s Latest Gaffe

June 17, 2008

If Obama had his way he would replace the incomparably successful cult movie “Star Wars” with “Mary Poppins,” a sentiment clearly evinced by his recent video posted on his website http://www.BarackObama.com and by the Center for Individual Freedom (CFIF) on YouTube He seems determined to weaken our military as though that will appease our enemies [...]

Fitna Unveiled

March 27, 2008

The Muslim world that is vocal and vociferous in its demands for censorship in the West is going through a reenergized paroxysm of anger and hate – fatwas for the Fitna producer (Dutch politician Geert Wilders) and its distributors are flying fast and furious. The Fitna film, supposedly anti-Muslim and anti-Koran, (is it realistic to [...]

Wiretapping Neurosis

February 22, 2008

Wiretapping and surveillance of suspected terrorists are causing our liberal hearts to flutter with existential anxiety. We are as a result desperately concerned about our rapidly evaporating freedoms, are we not? Yet not a single citizen has proven same, not a single court case has successfully unearthed this overbearing fear of fascism, in spite of [...]

“Philandering Phili”

February 20, 2008

(RE: Wall Street Journal’s “Philly’s War on the Boy Scouts” by Kevin Ferris Feb. 16, 2008) I want to join a Mosque. Preferably a local Wahhabist Mosque. Our constitution as defined by left-wing liberals guarantees me nothing less – no discrimination, no exclusion from these hallowed halls of Jihadist purity. I am a gay female [...]
