** Updates Continuing At End ** Man, mob think is ugly. I have been reading some of the most crude and disgusting comments on conservative sites the rank right up there with Ann Coulter’s ‘Raghead’ debacle. Made me proud to be an independent. My posts on the UAE port debate are here, here and here. […]

There is definitely a ghoulish sect of Islam that thrives on blood and butchery. 9-11 is its most memorable act, but it has many, many horrific acts to its name. The latest is in Nigeria, which Michelle Malkin rightfully says should be the top news story as radical Islamists butcher people with machetes. Americas defunct […]

I am so disappointed in how this Port-Dubai issue is playing out. Incorrect statements that derive from lazy writing, or worse a paraniod prejudice of all things Arab. The inaccuracies are always inflammatory. And the undercurrent is all irrational fear based on nothing concrete. I see phrases like this (emphasis mine): the sale of control […]

Folks, it is best to research a subject before going off in a panic of ineundo and incorrect information (which leads to wild conclusions). Port Operations are not security or ownership. It is traffic control, trash and clean up, etc. Security and the law are handled by the Coast Guard as part of Homeland Defense […]

Never a party to miss an opportunity to screw themselves, the Democrats are planning to offer America a plan for dealing with the war on terror and Iraq: Full Retreat After months of trying unsuccessfully to develop a common message on the war in Iraq, Democratic Party leaders are beginning to coalesce around a broad […]

If we deal with this latest round of violent protests by the radical islamists trying to light up World War III, we could lance this boil. Michelle has a great round up of the pictures from this week’s rioting. What I see is desperation and a faked hatred that cannot sustain itself. Like any riot […]

Powerline has word of a Fatwa out of Iran that can only be read as threat on the US and West of nuclear war: On the last subject, Michael Ledeen has been a close student of Iran for roughly the past 25 years. In his most recent NRO column, Ledeen observes: “When the French announced […]

UPDATE III: This is why Michelle Malkin is a class act blogger. Though we disagree a tad on this subject, she has linked here to add a different angle to the debate. My hat is off to you (again) Michelle. UPDATE II: Sea 2 Sea has done the yeoman’s work on investigating and communicating the […]

Now that we have Saddam talking about terrorism on the US and WMDs I guess all those people who claimed this madman could be controlled are now proven to be a tad naive. Saddam talks about hiding his WMDs from the UN and wishing he had launched more at Israel (that’s sane?). He admits he […]
