ACLU aiding illegal entry into U.S.?
ACLU aiding illegal entry into U.S.?
Of course illegals would have rights in America! And who better to defend them than the ACLU. You knew, of course, that the ACLU gets government funding, right? So YOUR tax dollars are going to an organization that is actively assisting illegal aliens to enter the US. Ain't that sweet!

EU shocker: Hamas are 'freedom fighters' - Official blamed terrorism on 'Israeli occupation' in secret meeting

Imagine, Europeans blaming Israelies for the problems of the Palestinians. Of course the Israelies are to blame, Jews have always been to blame haven't they? When was the last time Europeans were so down on the Jews?? Oh yes, now I remember - 1939. These folks never seem to learn.

This is the culture of Islam being taught to young kids in Australia. Are women really ready to go back to the 8th century? This kind of non-western thinking that justifies rape because of the way a woman dresses is at the heart of the clash with radical Islam, but these were not "radicals" bus mainstream Imams. Is a conflict coming between Islam and the West?

Imagine that, or soldiers aren't deranged, blood thirsty killers afterall. I hope the woman finds a way to clear her conscience - - no, scratch that. I hope she sees the face of Nicola Calipari every night in her dreams for the rest of her life.

The filibuster has become the weapon of choice in dealing with President Bush's judicial nominees to the appeals court. The first time in history this approach has been used. And, it seems this is simply the warmup round. The real target will be his nominations for the Supreme Court. It is here that liberals can enact those policies that the majority of Americans will not enact at the ballot box. It is time for the Republicans to take off the gloves and get the President's nominees voted on. Time is short, get your job done.

East of Eden
The American Spectator
The Far East is getting little in the way of global attention. Yet, events continue to move in the direction of confrontation in many arenas. China is very hungry and not shy about throwing its weight around. It is very questionable whether the forces of democracy and capitalism can act quickly enough to blunt the old ways of physical force. It is a region that demands attention.

Chirac pushes EU to drop hard line on Iran-diplomats
Chirac pushes EU to drop hard line on Iran-diplomats
Imagine that, Chirac is OK with Iran having a "small scale" nuclear enrichment program. I suspect there is a "nukes for oil" link somewhere here. I can't even imagine why he would be willing to go down such a terribly dangerous road.

The Clinton Crew take one more chunk out of our national security
Double standards for Sandy Berger
Clinton never took our national security seriously and neither did his officials. It appears that Berger's wrist slap will stand. It sends an incredibly dangerous signal to our enemies - and does not do much to build confidence in another Clinton administration.

More trouble for our neighbors to the south. Bit by bit, they become more unstable, certainly not good news for us.

The Calm Before the Storm?

9/11 turned a corner for the whole world, not just the US. While the attack occurred on US soil, the attack of a GLOBAL trade center should have sent the message that this was a threat to the world, to the western ideals that drive much of the international trade, to the ideas of freedom and Democracy.
This is a generational war. Our children will have to fight these animals. The fact we have not been attacked on our soil since 9/11 is do to our increased awareness, increased security precautions and simple luck. It will not hold forever. Someone will miss something sometime. That is why it is imperative that in the Mideast, where much of this is spawned, we do everything we can to bring freedom and prosperity, because that is the key to reducing terrorism. And, we must continue to take the fight to these animals and the governments that harbor and support them.
Iran comes to mind. It should be obvious to all world governments why it is not acceptable for Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon. I think many just assume that they are safe since the obvious target would be the US. But, recent developments if Islamic expansion in Europe should be enough to convince many of the European governments that they are as much at risk as is the US. As I said earlier, this is a global threat that must be met firmly, or else.
