Iran Is Insulting To Humankind

Published by under All General Discussions

Iran is absolutely out of control. What better way to demonstrate maturity and self control regarding nuclear power than to put on a Holocaust conference highlighting ignorance, denial and irresponsibility: Leaders in Germany and Britain have sharply criticized the announcement of the conference and plans to invite notorious Holocaust deniers as a further example of […]

ABC Anchor Injured In Bombing

Drudge has word that ABC anchor Bob Woodruff and his camerman were seriously injured by an IED in Iraq. Our prayers go out to these folks, as they have for all fighting in Iraq. Journalists do perform brave and selfless acts, that is clear.
