BRUCE BAWER: OSLO’S EPIDEMIC OF RAPE

Oslo’s Epidemic of Rape Posted By Bruce Bawer

URL to article: http://frontpagemag.com/2011/10/28/oslos-epidemic-of-rape/

Back in May it was reported that every rape assault in the city of Oslo in the last five years had been committed by a person with a “non-Western” background – a Norwegian euphemism for Muslim. Now it turns out that there have already been twice as many rape assaults in Oslo so far this year as there were in all of 2010. At least one member of Parliament, André Oktay Dahl of the Conservative Party, calls the situation “critical” and is brave enough to acknowledge that many of the perpetrators come from cultures “with a reprehensible attitude toward women.”

The Conservative Party has proposed several measures to combat what is being described as a rape epidemic: more money for the police; more police in the streets and doing investigations; faster results from DNA tests; the introduction of volunteer auxiliary police. There is something to be said for these proposals. Policing in Norway is a scandal. This summer it was reported that police departments all over Norway were so short-handed that they were unequipped to deal with the armies of drunks staggering home from bars on weekends after closing time. It was also reported that only fourteen of 430 new graduates of Norway’s police academy had been offered jobs.

RAYMOND IBRAHIM: TUNISIAN ELECTIONS AND THE ROAD TO THE CALIPHATE

Tunisian Elections and the Road to the Caliphate Posted By Raymond Ibrahim

Tunisia, where the 2011 Arab uprisings began, remains an ominous model for where these uprisings will end.

The nation’s first round of elections are in, and, as expected, the Islamist party, al-Nahda, won by a landslide, gaining over 40% of the seats in the national constituent assembly. As usual, the mainstream media, interpreting events exclusively through a Western paradigm, portrayed this largely as a positive development.

Thus, a Washington Post editorial, “Tunisia again points the way for Arab democracy,” asserts how “the country’s leading Islamic party claimed victory—and that, too, could prove a positive example.” Other reports, perfunctorily prefixing the word “moderate” to “Islamist”—an oxymoron to common sense, an orthodoxy to the MSM—gush and hail “democracy.”

Such sunny depictions are not mere products of Western projection but augmented by conniving Islamists who spoon-feed the world what it wants to hear. Thus, an MSNBC report, “Tunisia’s Islamists Seek to Reassure Secularists,” optimistically talks of how the Islamists “said they would share power and would not try to push through radical measures.”

Of course they did.

NETANYAHU’S FOLLY: DEROY MURDOCK*****

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/281510 Netanyahu’s Folly The terrorist swap was a disproportionate and likely deadly decision.

Netanyahu recently ransomed a kidnapped Israeli soldier whom Hamas had held hostage since 2006. The price […]

TAYLOR DINERMAN: ON NICOLAS SARKOZY

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/281497
Francois the XVIII The 2012 French Restoration
Nicolas Sarkozy has a lot in common with Napoleon: He’s short, he likes pretty women, and he is a successful war leader (ask Qaddafi’s ghost). He lacks refined tastes and he continually rubs France’s establishment the wrong way. In his European economic policy he is also facing his Waterloo at the hands of an uneasy alliance of Germans and Brits. From an American point of view this is too bad, since he has been the least anti-American French leader since the Marquis de Lafayette.

After Napoleon’s downfall he was replaced by the “legitimate” king, Louis XVIII. The man who had been known as the Corsican usurper was gone, and the Bourbon dynasty was back. In 2012, France’s powerful establishment hopes to see the political demise of the man it considers the “Hungarian usurper” and his replacement by Francois Hollande, who, in the context of modern French politics, represents a “safe pair of hands.”

THOMAS LIFSON: TEN RICHEST CELEBS WHO SUPPORT OWS HAVE COLLECTIVE NET WORTH OVER A BILLION DOLLARS

Ten richest celebs supporting OWS have collective net worth over a billion dollars

Celebrity airheads who are supporting the occupiers are feeding Wall Street to the crocodile, forgetting that the beast quickly gets hungry for more. Celebrity Net Worth has a highly amusing article on the subject. The top ten:

#1 Yoko Ono Net Worth – $500 million.

Ono stated “I love ‘Occupy Wall Street’! John is sending his smile to ‘Occupy Wall Street’. I am sending my love to ‘Occupy Wall Street’. We are all working together. ”

#2 Russell Simmons Net Worth – $325 million

Keep in mind that on top of being a hip-hop mogul Simmons is the founder of a high fee credit card company called UniRush Financial Services.

#3 Roseanne Barr Net Worth – $80 million

Roseanne thinks anyone with over $100 million should be beheaded. Interesting that her net worth is $80 million. I guess she doesnt make “the cut”.

#4 Deepak Chopra Net Worth – $80 million

Chopra said #OWS is turning anger into awareness. The fortune he has made off his fluff filled books has just turned me to anger.

#5 Kanye West Net Worth – $70 million

#6 Alec Baldwin Net Worth – $65 million

#7 Susan Sarandon Net Worth – $50 million

#8 Michael Moore Net Worth – $50 million

#9 Tim Robbins Net Worth – $50 million

#10 Nancy Pelosi Net Worth – $35.5 million

Don’t forget that last week Roseanne called for beheading rich people. She should remember Danton’s words, “The revolution devours its children.”

STEPHEN MOORE: PERRY MUST BE ON TO SOMETHING…LIBERALS LOST NO TIME SWATTING IT DOWN

Flogging the Flat Tax
Tax fairness means everyone has to share equally in the burden of tax complexity.

Republican presidential hopeful Rick Perry must be onto something with his flat tax. Liberals wasted no time on Tuesday shooting arrows at the Texas governor’s proposal, labeling it a giant-sized tax cut for millionaires and billionaires that’s paid for with higher taxes on the middle class.

Obama administration spokesman Ben LaBolt said the flat tax “would shift a greater share of taxes away from large corporations and the wealthiest onto the backs of the middle class.” Mr. Obama’s team just can’t get away from the class warfare theme.

The Democratic National Committee was also on the warpath. It sent out an email claiming to “fact check” the Perry flat tax, which would offer taxpayers the choice of filing under the current system or paying a 20% rate. The DNC cites former Obama administration economist Jared Bernstein, who says “not only would [the plan] shift the tax burden from the rich to middle-class and poorer taxpayers, but it would also shift the burden of tax preparation away from the rich.” Apparently, tax fairness means everyone has to share equally in the burden of tax complexity. Now, there’s an argument that only a tax accountant could love……READ AT SITE
