The Green Fascism by Ahmed Charai

The Green Fascism by Ahmed Charai http://www.hudson-ny.org/2156/the-green-fascism A historic tragedy is at play before our eyes: Another Munich, when some European democracies thought they could avoid the war by appeasing Nazism. Winston Churchill said: “You accepted shame to avoid war, now you will have both.” History’s verdict was merciless. Today, Arab — but also Western […]

ROGER KIMBALL: WHAT IS A TURNCOAT? SEE THIS VIDEO AT SITE

http://pajamasmedia.com/rogerkimball/2011/05/27/what-is-a-turncoat/ So, what is a “turncoat”? Colloquially, it means someone who abandons one side for another. Yet a “turncoat” is not quite the same thing as a “traitor,” someone who betrays his own side. A turncoat surrenders, but does not necessarily betray. Bill Whittle makes this point, among several others,  in the video below.  The […]

RONNI SHALIT: NATIONAL SECURITY ROUNDTABLE RUSSIAN PREZ UNCORKS A STUNNER ON US MISSILE DEFENSE SHIELD

NSR Friends, EXCEPT that in a meeting with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, just as Mr. Obama finished touting another “outstanding relationship” (days after ruining the one with ally, Israel), the object of O’s affection, Dmitry, uncorked a “stunner”! Turns out that Mr. Obama’s last “major foreign policy accomplishment,” i.e., START II (the nuclear arms reduction […]

ANDREW McCARTHY: ARIZONA AND THE SUPREMES: WINNING THE CASE LOSING PRINCIPLE

Winning the Case, Losing the Principle
Arizona won, but the sovereignty of states suffered a setback.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for the most politicized Justice Department in American history to drop its imperious lawsuit against the people of Arizona — those impertinent subjects who dare to demand enforcement of the immigration laws Pres. Barack Obama deems null and void.

It is true that this week, in upholding Arizona’s sanctions against employers who hire illegal aliens, the Supreme Court implicitly undermined the preemption-by-executive-fiat theory underlying the administration’s suit. By a 5–3 majority (with Justice Elena Kagan, Obama’s former solicitor general, having recused herself), the Court held that a state is not barred from enacting laws that are consistent with federal statutes and bolster congressional purposes. That is to say, the touchstone of preemption remains law, which is what Congress prescribes, not policy, which is a president’s political calculation about what laws to enforce or not enforce.

ROBIN SHEPHERD: TALK OF THE “ARAB SPRING” JUST SHOWS WEST’S IGNORANCE

http://www.thecommentator.com/article/186/talk_of_the_arab_spring_just_shows_the_west_s_ignorance Talk of the “Arab Spring” just shows the West’s ignorance The “Arab Spring” is named after the “Prague Spring” which ended not in freedom but in the Soviet invasion. Are we really this stupid? All right. First an admission, second an excuse, third a bit of a rant, and only then the serious stuff. […]

MELANIE PHILLIPS: FEEDING THE MEDIA MIDEAST DRAGON

http://www.spectator.co.uk/melaniephillips/6979365/feeding-the-media-middle-east-dragon.thtml The brazenness of the lie just makes you gasp. Obama’s attempted ambush of Israel over the ‘1967 lines’ has been boomeranging in all kinds of ways, including in Israel itself. Netanyahu’s magisterial and strategically shrewd resistance has resulted in Netyanyahu’s ratings back home going though the roof. Ha’aretz has reported that, according to an […]
