http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3704/britain-radical-islam The planning of violent atrocities continues in Britain. The government has still failed to curb the spread of violent agitation, and a necessary, firm and united opposition to radical Islam remains lacking at the official level. If the U.S. authorities are beset by questions about their capacity for the prevention – or lack thereof […]

Shocked audience boos modern interpretation of Wagner’s ‘Tannhauser” that features gas chambers
BERLIN (AP) — A modern production of Richard Wagner’s opera “Tannhauser” has caused a stir in Germany because of Nazi-themed scenes showing people dying in gas chambers and a family having their heads shaved and executed.
A spokeswoman for the Dusseldorf opera house said Tuesday that members of the audience “booed and were shocked” by Saturday’s opening performance.
Monika Doll said the company of Deutsche Oper am Rhein is debating whether to tone down the provocative parts, added to the original by director Burkhard Kosminski.
The head of the city’s Jewish community, Michael Szentei-Heise, criticized the show as “tasteless.”
Adolf Hitler was a fan of Wagner, who died in 1883. Wagner was an ardent anti-Semite and his music is still widely considered taboo in Israel.

http://pjmedia.com/andrewmccarthy/2013/05/07/clintons-republican-guard/ With each new revelation, what has always been obvious becomes more pronounced: the State Department’s self-proclaimed final word on the Benghazi Massacre, the risibly named “Accountability Review Board” investigation, is a fraud. Yet, like the rest of the Obama administration’s obstructive wagon-circling, the ARB’s report continues serving its intended purpose: to thwart efforts to […]
On May 7, 1945, Germany signed an unconditional surrender at Allied headquarters in Reims, France, to take effect the following day, ending the European conflict of World War II. The New York Times published an Associated Press story under the headline “The War in Europe is Ended!” It reported, “[The Germans] were asked sternly if […]

Dobbins is a prominent exponent of the idea that America can live with a nuclear Iran, as well as an opponent of the use […]

This week’s Glazov Gang had the honor of being joined by actor Dwight Schultz, (DwightSchultzFansite.nl), Borek Volarik, a Chezh defector, and Nonie Darwish, the author of The Devil We Don’t Know.
The Gang gathered to discuss: “Un-American” To Ask About Benghazi? The discussion occurred in Part II and the guests shed light on the twisted world of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who is now questioning the “Americanism” of those who won’t accept that Benghazi was all about a film and just move on.
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/fjordman/the-uniqueness-of-western-civilization/print/ The Uniqueness of Western Civilization by Professor Ricardo Duchesne is a refreshing and original book that breaks with the current Multicultural consensus to argue that Western civilization is indeed unique and has been so for a very long time, probably far longer than most people realize. It is a daring text. Few other books […]
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/vladimir-tismaneanu/back-to-lenin-bolshevism-as-barbarism/print/ It has become fashionable among leftist circles to invoke a return to Lenin, to radicalism, to utopia. Among those who advocate such imperative to “retest the communist hypothesis” one can count French philosopher Alain Badiou, a former admirer of the Khmer Rouges, and Slovene thinker, Slavoj Zizek, the new idol of Western university campuses, […]
