Over at the NY Times, Jack Healy discusses the pipeline from Minnesota to militancy (hey, Jack, it’s called terrorism), but still does he utter Leftist best to soft-pedal the notion that this is really about modern Islam It was a friendship that began in high school and ended in militant jihad. As Minnesota teenagers growing […]

Have you heard the story of Don Morgan? He’s a guy from Salisbury, NC, who converted to Islam and then tried to join ISIS. He was in Lebanon for awhile, after being stopped in Turkey as he attempted to get into Syria, continued to write to ISIS and their leader, but, eventually ran out of […]

Juan Cole has long been a leading voice of Crazy within the Left-o-sphere (here’s an oldy but goody where he wants coal use criminalized). Here’s another example U.S. Public Worried About ISIL and Putin but Climate Change Is the Real Challenge This post originally ran on Juan Cole’s Web page. In a new Pew/ USA Today poll, […]

Good investigative work by the Washington Post’s Terrance McCoy Last week, as the forces of the Islamic State crept within 40 miles of Irbil, fear settled over the urbane Kurdish capital. People had heard of the militants’ brutality — of the crucifixions, the beheadings, the mass killings. They were understandably frightened, Kurdish journalist Namo Abdulla […]

Obviously, all the news outlets (most of whom are a citing this same AP article), are calling them “pro-Palestinian”. At the end of the day, though, they are supporters of the terrorist groups in Gaza, like Hamas, and want the destruction of Israel (AP) A sea of Palestinians and their sympathizers lined Manhattan streets Saturday, […]

There are quite a few idiotic stories on some group in Gaza firing rockets at Israel as the ceasefire ended, and the NY Times has the most idiotic. Here’s what it looks like on the mobile edition (both web and their app) front page Hey, I do that all the time on the golf course […]

This is entirely unsurprising. Ellison has vast links to the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR, which themselves have links to Hamas. He is also a hardcore Democrats, prone to Blaming Israel for the world’s, or at least the region’s, ills. End the Gaza blockade to achieve peace It seems as though each day brings new horrors […]

The NY Times gives an opinion platform to Israeli writer David Grossman, a long time critic of Israel’s dealings with the Palestinians, and an apologist for the terrorist activities implemented against Israel. In American terms, he’s much like our far left Progressives, who seem to hate Israel, find fault with everything America, and find comfort […]

Yesterday, we learned that the Washington Post editorial board put the blame where it belongs: on the terrorist group Hamas. But, you also had the LA Times printing a front page defense of Hamas terrorism against Israel. The Washington Post editorial was the outlier, as Leftists around the world seem to be of the opinion […]

I must say, this piece by the Washington Post Editorial Board surprised the heck out of me. Rarely should we expect them to take a position defending Israel in such a manner. This just isn’t done in Liberal World. On the WP web front page it is entitled “Hamas’s depraved strategy”, with the subtag “Much […]
