Well, have a look at the charts below, which come from the Bank of International Settlement (hat-tip, Tim Clougherty). Let’s start with the three forms of debt in Britain, viz personal, corporate and government liabilities: There comes a point when […]

The time when the Obama brand still seemed like it might have something to offer the American people is long past. There will still be voters who go to the polls and pull the wrong lever, but they won’t do it because they seriously believe that another term will make America a better place. Rather they will do it for reasons of identity. Political identity, racial identity and because ‘anything is better than voting GOP’ is also an identity.
The emotion that Obama stirred in the hearts of millions, that illusory sense of history created by so many hours of media manipulation, the expectation that now things would be better, is gone. And it isn’t coming back. No one will ever look up dewy eyed at a giant projected image of the Beloved Leader and see the second coming of JFK. All they will see is the politician they’re stuck with.

The former […]

http://www.meforum.org/3030/muslim-radicalization Because the phrase “Muslim radicalization” has become increasingly popular in American discourse, it behooves us to establish once and for all what it means. Without an agreed upon definition, it may be that we are each talking about different things—or worse and more likely, nothing at all. Most dictionaries define “radicalization” and “radicalize” as […]

http://www.torontosun.com/2011/08/02/yonge-dundas-smackdown What constitutes a physical assault in Toronto these days? AUGUST 8, 2011
“The details: I was at Yonge-Dundas Square with my nine-year-old son. We ate pizza. We drank bubble tea. And I used my new Canon camera to take photos of this neon shrine.Suddenly, a woman wearing a hijab ran toward me. She was part of a group that included two women wearing full face-covering burkas. She was screaming: “We are Muslim! You do not take pictures of us!” (Odd. I can’t find the “no photos” rule in the Qur’an.)I informed the lady I was in a public square in a democracy. I can actually take pictures of whomever I please.And then: Ka-pow! Her fist collided with my face. Worse, she almost knocked my new camera from my hands.My son and I were then surrounded by a mob of about 20 people, many of whom were speaking Arabic. One kept demanding I surrender my camera to him.
It was surreal. Was I in Toronto — or Riyadh?”
