You may have never heard of the Muslim Jihadist mouse named "Farfour", but he was very popular on a children's TV program in Palestine. The name of the show was "The Pioneers Of Tomorrow".

"Moderate" Jihadists Use TOW Missiles Against Assad

This is another facet of the religious-political madness in Syria. The US has supplied the "moderate" jihadists with highly lethal TOW wire-guided anti-tank missiles, to fight the Syrian Army.

Bite-Size Nuggets of Philosophy- Part 4

The "Consensus" of Islam....... last post, I wrote of the death-bed vision of liberal philosopher Richard Rorty, who wanted his descendants to live in a global civilization in which love is the only law.

Bite-Size Nuggets of Philosophy- Part 3

Revelations of a Death-Bed Vision..... last post, I described the post modern doctrine of "consensus" as a replacement for morality, in developing policies and laws in society.

And why we need to know and learn more about it..... because it controls our society and our lives, whether we realize it or not.

About this Blog
