  • Gaza, and Obama Derangement Syndrome

    Photo: Associated Press via Yahoo! News Caption: Muslim protesters wearing masks of, from left, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and U.S. President-elect Barack Obama, take part in a rally against Israeli air strikes on Gaza, in Jakarta, Indonesia, Sunday, Jan. 4, 2009. I didn’t vote for Obama, but I wish him […]

  • Zbigniew Zblows Smoke at Joe Scarborough

    I got a little carried away commenting on another blog, so to justify the research time I’m repurposing the comment here. 🙂 At Politics After 50 (having been born in 1958 I think this is a great blog title), the author had this to say about the video clip embedded below: I know this is […]

  • Moral Clarity on Hamas and Gaza, from Krauthammer

    Time and again, after reading a Charles Krauthammer column, I find myself thinking, “why couldn’t I have written that?” It’s a combination of my admiration for the man’s craft and my nearly complete agreement, more often than not, with what he has to say. Today’s column is headlined “Moral Clarity in Gaza.” It’s hard to […]

  • Slain Hamas Leader Was Raising Next Generation of Terrorists

    My satisfaction at the news yesterday that Israel had taken out a top Hamas leader was tempered somewhat by the fact that his family died with him — today’s stories put the toll at four of his wives and 10 of his children. On the face of it, that sounds like a lot of “collateral […]

  • Israel Turns to Social Media in Fight against Hamas

    Nick O’Neill has a good post at Social Media Today describing Israel’s use of social media in the current conflict in Gaza. Among other things, the Israeli Consulate in New York is engaging with supporters and critics alike, on Twitter. It’s reminiscent of Scott Monty’s efforts on behalf of Ford. Update: Also see this, at […]

  • Precision Strike Kills a Top Hamas Goon in Gaza

    “A senior Hamas leader, Nizar Rayan, was killed today with his four wives and two of his children in an Israeli air strike in Gaza, medics said,” according to an account in The National, an Abu Dhabi-based, English-language paper. (Photo: AFP/Getty, via CNN) The deaths of the wives and children are unfortunate, but Rayan knew […]

  • Good to See: Arab Leaders Criticize Hamas

    Via Taranto (third item) comes the welcome word that some Arab leaders understand the cause of the Gaza conflict better than the Episcopal Presiding Bishop does: Nimr Hammad, an adviser to [Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud] Abbas, told a Lebanese paper, “The one responsible for the massacres is Hamas, and not the Zionist entity, which in […]

  • Quick Takes on Gaza & Hamas

    Wired magazine’s Danger Room defense blog is covering the Gaza conflict — today comes the grim news that Hamas has obtained Chinese rockets with a range of 22 miles, doubling the terrorists’ reach into Israel. The rockets are also deadlier and more accurate (not that Hamas is concerned about precision targeting). Thanks for nothing, China… […]

  • I Stand With Israel

    Spare me from listening to officials of the thugocracy-infested United Nations complaining that Israel’s assault against Hamas is “disproportionate.” Of course it is. It should be. When a sovereign nation gets goaded into war by terrorist attacks upon civilians, its goal should be to destroy the terrorist infrastructure and kill as many terrorists as possible. […]

  • Eloquent Economic Commentary from Ayaan Hirsi Ali

    Ayaan Hirsi Ali, my hero, sings the praises of open markets in a tightly edited, 6-minute video on the Templeton Foundation site, part of a series of discussions about “big questions” such as “Does the free market corrode moral character?” English is at least her fourth language — she was born in Saudi Arabia, came […]
