Latest horrific report on NHS standards must give UK pause for thought about its socialist medical system An independent health watchdog has found that more than half of NHS hospitals fail to meet optimum needs in care of the elderly: A fifth are so bad they’re breaking the law

Yet another report has found appalling shortcomings in the standards of care provided by Britain’s National Health Service.

On Thursday, the Care Quality Commission – an independent health and social care watchdog – released the findings of a study of standards in the treatment of the elderly in 100 British hospitals.

Specifically, the investigation focused on whether “essential standards of dignity and nutrition were being met”.

EUROPE’S LEADERS ARE CONTEMPTUOUS OF DEMOCRACY BUT ARE THEY EVEN SANE?

http://www.thecommentator.com/article/534/clearly_europe_s_leaders_are_contemptuous_of_democracy_but_are_they_even_sane_ After another shameful assault on democracy, EU leaders can now go ahead with their EFSF euro bailout plan. But it’s doomed from the start and could cost taxpayers trillions So, it’s all smiles in Brussels again. Slovakia’s parliament duly did as it was told on Thursday and reversed Tuesday’s rejection of the European Financial […]

WES PRUDEN: AN EVIL WIND IN THE “ARAB SPRING”

http://www.prudenpolitics.com/index.php/pruden/full_column/an_evil_wind_in_the_arab_spring

“From Paris, the patriarch was meant to travel to Washington to see President Obama, but his visit was abruptly canceled when the White House learned of the patriarch’s politically incorrect warning. Mr. Obama, who never sees a Muslim potentate without bowing low enough to bang his head on the floor, was eager to avoid the patriarch lest meeting him offend harsh Muslim regimes.

Saddest of all, self-satisfied pastors, priests, prelates, bishops and assorted other divines in the West have been uninterested in speaking up for their fellow Christians marooned in the Islamic world. Fear, indifference and cowardice reigns.”

We’ve “enjoyed” the Arab spring, celebrated by one and nearly all. But if you’re a Christian under the wheels of an Egyptian army truck, it looks a lot like winter.

“SPENGLER” AKA DAVID P. GOLDMAN: NEVER HAVE SO FEW BEEN BLAMED BY SO MANY

http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/MJ12Ak02.html

“Rarely in the course of human events have so few been blamed byso much for so many. There are precedents, for example, when Adolf Hitler claimed that a Jewish “stab in the back” lost World War I for Germany. The notion that the problems of three hundred million Arabs revolve around the governance of a few million Palestinians has the same order of credibility. ”

Here’s your final exam question in Middle Eastern studies:

A mass of Coptic Christians marches through Cairo to protest the military government’s failure to protect them from Muslim radicals. They are attacked by stone-throwing, club-wielding rowdies. Armed forces security personnel intervene, and the Copts fight it out with the soldiers, with two dozen dead and scores injured on both sides. Who is to blame?

The full credit answer is: Benjamin Netanyahu, for building apartments in Jerusalem. If that’s not what you wrote, don’t blame me if you can’t get a job at the New York Times.

MICHELLE MALKIN: THE WALL ST PROTESTS…TRASH AND MONEY PILING UP

http://townhall.com/columnists/michellemalkin/2011/10/14/costs_of_the_occupiers/print The trash generated by the “Occupy Wall Street” protests keeps piling up. So do the bills. Liberal media outlets claim the anarchic, anti-capitalist movement is more popular than the tea party. But wait until Americans across the country get a full picture of the costs of the aimless occupiers. In New York City, government […]

RAYMOND IBRAHIM: HILLARY TO THE RESCUE OF EGYPT’S CHRISTIANS?…NO WAY

http://www.jihadwatch.org/2011/10/raymond-ibrahim-hillary-clinton-promises-to-save-egypts-christians.html Raymond Ibrahim: Hillary Clinton Promises to Save Egypt’s Christians? Soon after Sunday’s Maspero massacre, where the Egyptian military slaughtered Christians demonstrating over the destruction of their churches—including by running them over with armored vehicles—some Egyptian media began reporting that U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, having seen enough, declared that the U.S. plans on […]

CAROLYN GLICK: A PACT SIGNED INJEWISH BLOOD

http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=241644
“Prisoner releases only embolden terrorists by giving them the feeling that even if they are caught, their punishment will be brief. Worse, by leading terrorists to think such demands are likely to be met, they encourage precisely the terrorist blackmail they are supposed to defuse.”

The writer of those lines was then-opposition leader Binyamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu wrote those lines in his book, Fighting Terrorism: How Democracies Can Defeat Domestic and International Terrorists.

Israel needs that Netanyahu to lead it. But in the face of the current Netanyahu’s abject surrender to terrorism, apparently he is gone.
At best, Netanyahu comes out of this deal looking like a weak leader. At worst, he comes out as a morally challenged, irresponsible, opportunistic politician.

MY SAY: THIS AND THAT

First: Where have all the troubadours of the “Arab Spring Gone”?—–silent are the KristolHammers. They were Eyeless in Gaza, Silent on Sderot as Hamas rockets rained from Gaza whose “liberation” made them giddy with excitement, and Clueless in Cairo where they hailed “the democratic revolution”…. and Putzy in Palestine where they trumpeted the two-state dissolution….huh?

Second: Why does the media treat the recent “foiled Iran terror plot” as if the only target were Saudi Arabia and its wormy little Ambassador? They were, according to all early reports targeting the Israeli Embassy as well.

Third: Qaddafi is not just another pretty face…he is a cruel monster…but the media shows a little ignorance here about his treatment of Jews. They report, among his other depredations that he was guilty of the great pogroms against the Jews that occurred in 1967. Well he certainly does not like Jews but the pogroms and expulsions of 1967 occurred fully two years before Qaddafi came to power in 1969….but then, the ignoramuses in the media thinks all Middle East problems started in 1967.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE TROUBLE WITH MUSLIM DEMOCRACY

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ The ultimate symbol of Muslim Democracy may not end up being the purple fingers of the Iraqi ballots but the smoke from burning churches and dead Coptic Christians in Egypt. While Iraq was tenuously balanced between Shiites and Sunnis, Arabs and Kurds, there is no such balance in Egypt. The average Egyptian is a […]

P. DAVID HORNIK: FREEING GILAD SHALIT

http://frontpagemag.com/2011/10/13/freeing-gilad-shalit/print/   On the eve of the joyous Sukkot holiday, Israel learned that Gilad Shalit—the soldier kidnapped and held incommunicado by Hamas in Gaza since June 2006—was soon to be freed in exchange for a thousand security prisoners. That number was already set by the previous government of Ehud Olmert when it started negotiating with […]
