Just before I’m off…

Our Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, has come out and said what no one else had the guts to say: ‘ Islamist jihadists have “declared war” on Canada and other democratic countries leaving Canada no option but to “face that head on and deal with it,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper said...

Response-to-Comments Day – at least in part…

I’m a little busy today, and I’ll let you know why later… Today responses to three comments… The first one is by our Kabu, who writes in answer to my post ‘Twelve people killed at a Paris magazine…’: “There will be condemnation...there already is Naut. Not all the World is ready to lie down with... Sign in to see full entry.

I know only a few of you will read this – pity…

For what follows are some of the most important words uttered in a long time by one of the followers of that vile politico-religious ideology: Islam. Those who have read my blogs on this issue for a while will remember my contention that Islamofascism can only be overcome from within, that is to say... Sign in to see full entry.

How very nice…

Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.

A Courageous Woman…

If the people of this religion [Islam] are asked about the proof for the soundness of their religion, they flare up, get angry and spill the blood of whoever confronts them with this question. They forbid rational speculation, and strive to kill their adversaries. This is why truth became thoroughly... Sign in to see full entry.

The Muslim Social (And Other) Media Campaigns…

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture,... Sign in to see full entry.

This is especially for our TAPS…

…And of course for anyone else who wasn’t able to read (or didn’t bother to read) the post on my nomination for Most Courageous Man of the Year, that appeared a few of days ago in Thoughts. Because of some glitch, TAPS couldn’t open the link to the video, so I have transcribed the ‘conversation’... Sign in to see full entry.

Here’s the latest official declaration by Hamas…

The following appeared on a broadcast by Al-Aqsa TV, the Hamas TV station. The occasion was a military parade… Announcer: "This is an anti-aircraft Patriot missile. Dear brothers, we brandish our rifle today as we did in the past. It is the rifle that was carried by our leader and commander Abu... Sign in to see full entry.

Are some developments inevitable?

That’s strictly a rhetorical question – don’t even try and answer it; because if you did you would have to show me convincingly that you were right – regardless of whether you argued for ‘Yes’ or for ‘No’ – and you can’t. Some of you (very few, LOL) may remember my very early posts in ’06, when I... Sign in to see full entry.

The West has a short attention span…

…At least when it comes to history! ‘The West’ – a huge abstraction, of course – maybe I should say ‘Westerners’, just a trifle less so… What not just I but many others recognize is that Western peoples’ knowledge of history, their own and that of others is sadly deficient. They’re not interested,... Sign in to see full entry.
