I’m working on a post, but thought you all would find this interesting in the meantime:
From AJ Strata, something that’s not just interesting, but is also terrifying: the terrorists are out there and, having gotten the measure of our new president and his administration, they are massing for war.
If you needed a reminder that today’s [...]

From Keep America Safe, a video highlighting the distance between Obama’s rhetoric and his acts.
I love the way the video ends with a repeat of the statement Sen. Scott Brown helped spread widely through America:

The New York Times reports that, according to a Senate report, some American ex-prisoners who converted to Islam are heading to (or have already arrived in Yemen) to be part of terrorist forces against the U.S.:
Some American former convicts who converted to Islam in prison have moved to Yemen and a few may have joined [...]

Michael Yon, Joan Rivers and a little boy clutching the Play-Doh his grandparents gave him. That looks like a peculiarly disparate list of people but, in fact, all three people are bound together by one thing: the TSA Department of Homeland Security.
As you already know, on Monday, the TSA Customs detained and handcuffed Michael Yon [...]

Jennifer Rubin riffs off of a Politico article which comments on Obama’s peculiar reaction to the Flaming Panties bomber, but professes bewilderment was to why the reaction was as strange as it was:
The Obami don’t believe in their heart of hearts that we are on a war footing. The president wouldn’t label Fort Hood, where [...]

I got a letter from a good friend who not only linked me to this worth-reading Uncle Jimbo post, but who also added “Has anyone noticed that all of the airplane incidents since 9/11 have been perpetrated by muslims?” Since I live with a liberal, and I know the score, my response to him was [...]

By now, you’ve all heard that Janet Napolitano, the head of Obama’s Department of Homeland Security, is going around saying that the system worked perfectly when a guy on the US no-fly list, who had been turned in by his own father, boarded a plane and detonated a bomb, only to be foiled by a [...]

Yesterday I linked to a post at Pierre LeGrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar about another possible terrorist dry run. Melissa Clouthier now has more. I’ll blog later, but have to work.

This is an important story that’s getting almost no play in the American press: the Indian government believes that an American Muslim who was arrested in connection with a plan to attack the Jyllands-Posten paper, was not only behind the horrific Mumbai massacre, but was also plotting attacks against Indian nuclear power plants. The Jawa [...]

I don’t think the media has ever before been so blatant in its desire to divorce an evil act from its ideological origins, but this isn’t the first time we’ve seen that game played out. More than two years ago, a short lived comedy show on Fox used the occasion of an abortive bombing in [...]

These are a matched set, and you must read them, one after the other:
Janet Napolitano, the U.S. Homeland Security Secretary, having thought long and hard, decides that the real victims of the Fort Hood massacre are . . . wait for it . . . Muslims.
On the flip side, Cassandra, at Villainous Company, talks about [...]

It’s been two days since our Commander in Chief lost one of his own in an attack on American soil — and his silence is deafening. When an abortionist died, our CIC instantly issued a public statement and used federal marshals to beef up security at abortion clinics. When one of his own men died [...]

A local Marin woman hitched a ride with a peace group to stay with some Palestinians, and came back filled with useful information. Anna Rogers found “shocking . . . how much Arab land has been taken over and how crazily restrictive it is for the Palestinians.” That’s an interesting thing to say, of course, [...]

The following video draws heavily from a documentary KQED did about the Weather Undergroundbefore anybody really cared about Barack Obama. (I remember watching, and being revolted by, the documentary back when it first came out.) Then, the video neatly ties together the package of these very, very bad people and Barack Obama.
At the end, the [...]

I don’t have much time to write now, but I read a trio of stories at the Jerusalem Post that remind us why moral relativism regarding Israel is wrong. Israel, for all her flaws, is a better, more moral country that the surrounding Arab nations, and that’s regardless of any of their virtues:
Another Arab resident [...]

This is not a picture in America, but the top two pictures in this story illustrate perfectly why it matters that a nation’s citizens — the vast majority of whom are law abiding — can bear arms.
It is also interesting to note that, while the Beeb instantly tried to paint the Israelis as killers, this [...]

Honest Reporting captured the first spin that the BBC put on the terrible story of the latest massacre in Israel (a Palestinian versus Israelis, of course) — and, as always, it was Israel who was spun as the brutal aggressor. Orwell clearly understood something in the British psyche when he wrote 1984 — or, more [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Andrew C. McCarthy, author of the newly published Willful Blindness: Memoir of the Jihad, sat down for an interview at NRO, and voiced some unpleasant truths about our suicidal sensibilities:
Lopez: What’s the most devastating lesson from 15 years ago we still haven’t learned?
McCarthy: That the primary cause of Islamic terrorism is Muslim doctrine, and [...]

Niall Ferguson, whose book Empire: The Rise and Demise of the British World Order and the Lessons for Global Power was an excellent primer about the virtues of the British Empire (a tough argument in an anti-imperialist age), has written a rave review about Philip Bobbit’s newest book, Terror and Consent : The Wars [...]

I will never again complain about having to throw away my unfinished drink before going through airport security:

These are happy Palestinians:
You can see more wildly happy Palestinians here.
This is why they are having a celebratory party, complete with drums, bagpipes, guns and babies:
You can see more examples of the images and facts that give the Palestinians their jollies here and here.

I noted a couple of posts ago that the UN, predictably, is up in arms about the fact that Israel finally took action against the militants firing rockets at civilians. I’m sure, though, that the UN will greet with mind-numbing silence the fact that terrorists invaded a school in Jerusalem and killed seven (with [...]

I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for England. I adore British history, especially because I’ve always admired its trajectory towards true enlightenment. It had all the bad qualities of other European nations — serfs, Crusades, slavery, inhumane work conditions, etc. — but it always seemed to shake them off sooner [...]
