http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/the-shadow-of-the-soviet-union-over-the-muslim-world/ It has been over two decades since the Soviet Union ceased to exist, but evil organizations cast a shadow over the world even when they are long gone. “The evil that men do lives after them,” Mark Anthony said in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. History has repeatedly backed up that oratory with facts. The evil […]
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/self-defense-in-the-post-zimmerman-world?f=puball Self-defense is hard wired into our genes. If your ancestors believed in turning the other cheek, you would not be here. But, that acknowledged, defensive tactics are forever changing as new threats and technologies emerge. Now for the latest self-defense update: the Zimmerman trial. If you paid close attention you now know that the […]
http://pjmedia.com/andrewmccarthy/2013/07/24/our-iraqi-al-qaeda-enemy-springs-our-syrian-al-qaeda-ally-from-prison/ The Guardian reports that al-Qaeda has just carried out bombing raids at two Iraqi prisons, freeing hundreds of prisoners, many of them jihadist fighters affiliated with the terror network. Hakim al-Zamili, a member of the security and defense committee in Iraq’s parliament concedes that “the number of escaped inmates has reached 500. Most of […]

Today, America heard threats from the increasingly predictable President Alinsky. “The position of the middle class will erode further,” Mr. Obama said. “Inequality will continue to increase, money’s power will distort […]

YOU CAN ADD THE TOMCATS TED KENNEDY AND CHRIS DODD TO THE MIX….RSK
When I was a kid growing up in fifties Manhattan, if my mother had told me there would be a flasher running for mayor of New York, my mouth would have dropped open. Flashers were those guys I was supposed to run away from in Central Park.
But now we have Anthony Weiner, a flasher of the Internet sort, who exposes himself to random women online, before and after having apologized publicly for it, actually (as of this writing) still campaigning for mayor of our biggest city and financial center.
Weiner is no mere adulterer as described by Flaubert, Tolstoy and thousands of lesser writers. Or even a compulsive womanizer à la Bill Clinton. He is a genuine weirdo, straight out of the pages of Krafft-Ebing’s Psychopathia Sexualis, the kind that really do jump out of the bushes in public parks.
Making this even more bizarre, his wife, Huma Abedin, appears to be standing by him in the face of this immense public humiliation.
Why she may be doing that, I will discuss in a moment, but it’s worth noting that Weiner is not alone among prominent Democrats these days in his assaults on women. San Diego Mayor and former Congressman Bob Filner [1] evidently can’t keep his hands off any female within a radius of three hundred feet and seems about to lose his job after only eight months. And we all know about Eliot “Client #9″ Spitzer, the great seeker of justice who prosecutes prostitutes while patronizing them, now back running for New York comptroller and, like Weiner, dragging his spouse along with him.
Here’s a thought experiment: Imagine a Mayor Anthony Weiner consoling someone’s teenage daughter with a hug after the next 9/11. Problem? Okay, maybe Comptroller Spitzer will do it.

We counted four mentions of “growth” but “inequality” got five. This goes a long way to explaining why Mr. Obama is still bemoaning the state of the economy […]
http://www.mideastoutpost.com/archives/changing-times-rita-kramer.html History abounds in ironies. Glimpses into the past, into what was thought and said by those who were present as events were unfolding, sometimes explain, sometimes exasperate, and sometimes mystify. For those of us dismayed by how the government and people of Israel are depicted in much of the world today, there are illuminating […]
http://www.theatlantic.com/health/print/2013/07/what-does-it-mean-to-kill-for-a-cause/277846/ Before any country can fashion an effective counter-terrorism policy, it needs a clear and purposeful understanding of “the enemy.” For the United States, especially after discovering so-many behavioral contradictions in the Boston Marathon bombers, an underlying task must be to look more closely and explicitly at issues of normalcy. On the cover of yesterday’s […]

HUMA, WITH HER MORE UNSAVORY MOSLEM TIES IS FAR MORE PERNICIOUS THAN HER PERV HUSBAND….WE KNOW WHAT HE SHOWS BUT WE DON’T REALLY KNOW WHAT SHE HIDES….RSK
After Tuesday’s revelation about his post-resignation sexting and the ensuing press conference to deny its newsworthiness, it seems unlikely that Anthony Weiner could win anything — the mayoralty, a seat on his co-op board, or even the New Jersey Powerball. The same cannot be said for his wife. Huma has won the hearts of many in the commentariat, not least Tina Brown, who tweeted Wednesday: “I say Huma for mayor. She has all the qualities he doesn’t.”
Why do they love Huma? After all, this is a woman who has been enabling the ambitions of a husband almost universally understood as mendacious and narcissistic. True, that’s practically the job description of the political wife. But Huma went beyond the customary conjugal responsibilities. She orchestrated the rehabilitation of her husband’s public image and his campaign to lead the world’s premier city, starting with a willfully deceptive spread in People in which she assured the public, “Anthony has spent every day since trying to be the best dad and husband he can be” — even as his fingers twitched in preparation for his next sext.
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/354298/closing-gitmo-still-terrible-idea-andrew-c-mccarthy Such unlucky timing for Senator Dick Durbin: He insisted on hearing today to push forward President Obama’s reckless project to close the terrorist detention facility at Guantanamo Bay. Apparently, al-Qaeda did not get the memo: The jihadist network has conducted bombing raids at two Iraqi prisons – including Abu Ghraib – in a successful plot to […]
