Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
The fact that Iran is the new epicenter of coronavirus irresistibly reminds me of Sennacherib’s abortive attack on Jerusalem in 701 B.C. Iran has a problem and that problem is coronavirus. Several different outlets, ranging from FrontPage Magazine to The New Yorker, have articles about the fact that Iran is

Aside from the fact that Bernie’s lying when he says Denmark is his goal, the reality is that Denmark is not an exceptionally happy or well-run country. Now that Bernie’s the frontrunner, Bernie and his supporters are assuring us that he’s not a real socialist. He just wants us to

With a connection between exotic meats and infectious diseases such as China’s Coronavirus, our habit of eating boring farm animals is a good thing. Zoonosis is a category of infectious diseases that start with animal-to-animal transmission, morph to animal-to-human transmission, and then leap into human-to-human transmission. They’re almost always scary

It matters that the Church of England came out in favor of heterosexual marriage, for marriage is a bulwark protecting girls from Islamic sex trafficking. A few days ago, news broke that Manchester had joined the list of British cities in which gangs of Muslim men (mostly from Pakistan) systematically

If only Harry and Meghan, whey they complete their divorce from the royal family, would follow Edward III and Wallis Simpson, and sink into deserved oblivion Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, I would have cared deeply about what’s been going on in England. I grew up

I continue to believe that Trump did the right thing vis-a-vis Iran by killing Soleimani, the terrorist, and these are a few random thoughts to explain why. At a base, reflexive level, I’ve gotten to the point at which anything the Democrats are against, I’m for. If they think we

Iran’s insignificant response to Soleimani’s death shows a weak regime that is looking to Democrats to help it out, but must still deal with Trump. Stuck between a rock and a hard place, Iran had to respond to Trump’s targeting of IRGC General Soleimani. They did so last night by

While the Democrats keep squawking about proportionality, the facts show that Trump’s targeting Soleimani was proportional to the risks Iran presents. Nancy Pelosi is leading the charge against Trump for targeting IRGC General Qassam Soleimani. This attack is purely political and designed to gather political advantage, irrespective of cost to

After 40 years on the receiving end of non-stop Iranian aggression, Trump changed the game and answered back in kind — and the Democrats are horrified. Trump just changed the game with Iran. Iran has spent the past 40 years as the single greatest destabilizing influence in the Middle East

Trump’s brilliant targeted strike against one of the world’s most evil men, while it offended the Left, may help bring down the Mullahs’ rule in Iran. So, let’s have a brief rundown, shall we? On December 27, a rocket attack on an Iraqi military base in Kirkuk, Northern Iraq, killed

Does Lt. Colonel Vindman’s uniform signal a slo-mo military coup and shouldn’t we be praising Trump for fighting corruption? (Plus a few more things.) (For those of you keeping track, this is the companion post to my No. 32 Bookworm Podcast.) On October 28 of this year, I wrote a

Warren proves her economic illiteracy; Biden’s anger is evil, not cute; and Trump was playing 4-D chess with his Syria pullout. (This is a companion post to the No. 25 Bookworm Podcast which I uploaded yesterday. The content is mostly the same, although not identical. It won’t matter much, I think, whether

Regarding Syria, Trump is fulfilling a prediction I made two years ago about the Trump Doctrine, a repudiation of Wilsonian and Obama foreign policies. More than 2 years ago, in April 2017, I wrote a post entitled Trump has a pro-American foreign policy that owes nothing to either Wilson or
