I can’t add anything to this that you haven’t already thought of yourselves:
A solicitor who specialises in representing terror suspects and tells them not to cooperate with police was paid almost £1 million in legal aid last year.
Muddassar Arani’s firm represented Abu Hamza, dirty bomb plotter Dhirin Barot and three of the 21/7 bombers in [...]

I’ve been finding very disturbing the intense hostility that conservatives direct against John McCain. So much so that I wrote a very long rant on the subject, which American Thinker was kind enough to publish and which I reprint below:
Perhaps because I’m a neocon, and not a dyed-in-the-wool, native-born conservative, I look at John [...]

At this particular moment — 4:47 p.m., PST — the counter in my sidebar from The Religion of Peace records that terrorists acting in Islam’s name have committed precisely 11111 acts of terror since 9/11. That’s quite a number, both in terms of that string of ones, and in terms of what all those ones [...]

One of the things about conspiracy theorists is that they live in a hazy world of innuendo and speculation. There’s never any hard evidence to support their theory, just a lot of disparate facts that can be spun together into a tangled and usually nonsensical tapestry. As often as not, the beauty of the theories [...]

I will never again complain about having to throw away my unfinished drink before going through airport security:
A gang of alleged British Muslim fanatics plotted to cause “carnage on an almost unprecedented scale” with simultaneous suicide bombings on up to 18 transatlantic airliners, a court has heard.
Bombs made from hydrogen peroxide liquid explosives, and disguised [...]

Perhaps because he’s not anchored to a presidential campaign he rightly describes as “insane,” Newt Gringrich speaks honestly and frighteningly about the problems that face the Western world today and the ostrich-like behavior that characterizes our leaders. It’s only five minutes and I think it is a must-watch.
