STANLEY KURTZ: FOSSIL FUEL DIVESTMENT PART 3

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/342198/fossil-fuel-divestment-part-3-stanley-kurtz The fossil-fuel divestment campaign now sweeping America’s college campuses is a window onto much that is wrong with our culture and our politics. The fate of America’s free-enterprise system — long the engine of our prosperity and security — now hangs on a generation increasingly skeptical of the system’s premises. Surely doubts about capitalism […]

The Tyranny of Deceit: A Response to ‘Israel Apartheid Week’ by MARK SILVERBERG

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/the-tyranny-of-deceit-a-response-to-israel-apartheid-week In the aftermath of World War II, with the hideous revelation that two-thirds of European Jews had been systematically exterminated by the Nazis, anti-Semitism became unfashionable. But that is no longer the case. As the memory of the Holocaust fades into history, as we continue to transfer petro-wealth to our enemies; as Europe morphs […]

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/frontpagemag-com/threteaning-woodward-on-the-glazov-gang/

On this week’s Glazov Gang, Morgan Brittany, Ann-Marie Murrell and Dwight Schultz gathered to discuss MSNBC Hires Axelrod and Gibbs. The discussion occurred in Part II and focused on Obama’s continuing media puppet show. The segment also highlighted Hagel heading to the Pentagon and CPAC 2013 coming up. Part I focused on Threatening Woodward, dealing with the thought crime of a journalist in the Obama-era. The segment also included an analysis of Texas Kids Forced to Wear Burqa, shining a spotlight on the troubling Sharia education in Texas’ public school system. To watch both parts of the two part series, see below:

DANIEL PIPES ON LARS HEDEGAARD ****

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/daniel-pipes/a-stew-of-anti-muslim-bile-and-conspiracy-laden-forecasts/print/ At 11:20 a.m. on Feb. 5, Lars Hedegaard answered his door bell to an apparent mailman. Instead of receiving a package, however, the 70-year-old Danish historian and journalist found himself face to face with a would-be assassin about one third his age. The assailant shot him once, narrowly missing his head. The gun locked, […]

Obama’s Billion-Dollar Giveaway to the Muslim Brotherhood Posted By Arnold Ahlert

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/arnold-ahlert/obamas-billion-dollar-giveaway-to-the-muslim-brotherhood/ In the past few weeks, Americans have been subjected to a barrage of doomsday predictions regarding the disaster that would befall us should the sequester come to pass. Many were rightly incensed, then, that last Thursday, only one day before the “devastating” sequester cuts were scheduled to kick in, newly appointed Secretary of State […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: STALIN’S DEAD HAND WEIGHING DOWN RUSSIAN HISTORY

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/stalins-dead-hand/print/ Imagine if Hitler had ranked first in a current German survey of the greatest figures of history. While that did not happen, last year Stalin finished first among Russians in a Carnegie survey of the most influential figures of history, proving that people do not learn from history, they learn from the victors of […]

MATTHEW VADUM: HUGO CHAVEZ IS DEAD

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/matthew-vadum/venezuela-after-chavez/print/ After a long battle with cancer, Barack Obama’s less media-savvy comrade Hugo Chavez is finally dead. Venezuela’s Vice President, Nicolas Maduro, announced that the communist tyrant died yesterday after seeking medical treatment from the quacks and bunglers laughingly referred to as the Cuban health care system. Hidden away from the public for months, Chavez, […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: SIXTY YEARS AFTER STALIN’S DEATH

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ Somewhere in the first half of Moscow on the Hudson, a bedraggled Robin Williams huddles on the luxurious first floor of Bloomingdale’s clamoring in an unconvincing Russian accent that he wants to defect. Standing between him and a furious KGB officer is a minimum wage store security guard in a red blazer. The KGB […]

ANDREW McCARTHY: YOU ARE THE PIZZA POLICE

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/342260/you-are-pizza-police-andrew-c-mccarthy To find what is wrong with what passes for opposition to Obama-style Big Government, look no further than this afternoon’s confounding post, “The Pizza Police,” authored by two Beltway Republican leaders, Reps. Fred Upton (House Commerce Committee chairman) and Cathy McMorris Rodgers (House Republican Conference chairwoman). It is especially precious to find Rep. Upton […]

FRANK GAFFNEY: PUTTING POLITICS OVER PUBLIC SAFETY

Putting politics over public safety: Brennan’s backing of Shariah could cost American lives

An ominous pattern has been developing, particularly of late: The Obama administration seems determined to subordinate public safety to political expediency. If a course-correction is not effected promptly, the result is predictable. Americans will be needlessly harmed and, perhaps, killed.

The most recent and obvious example was the release last week of hundreds of reportedly dangerous illegal aliens from federal detention. The rationale given was that sequestration-dictated budget cuts made their incarceration unaffordable. The White House has disavowed any involvement in this reckless decision. It was certainly in keeping, though, with President Obama’s erstwhile mantra that extremely dire repercussions — including the disruption of critical public services — would flow from a fiscal train wreck that he has refused either to acknowledge devising or to stave off.
