Richard Cohen on Donald Trump
Mr. Cohen feels that Trump is betraying the principles that America stands for: It ['betrayal'] is the word that comes to mind almost on a nightly basis when I see some Trump surrogate defend his position on one of the cable news shows. How can you? I want to ask. Do you believe that the…

Why Trump Over Hillary?
In Kristol's Betrayal Gets Serious, David Horowitz explains why conservatives ought to unite behind Trump: Will he build a wall the length of the Mexican border? Probably not. But will he secure the border? Probably so. Will a Democrat – whether Hillary, Bernie or Joe Biden, secure our borders and stop the flow of illegals,…

Hillary’s Enablers on the Right
Stephen Moore lays into Michael Gerson here as I did here. In other 'enabling' news, French concert organizers ban Eagles of Death Metal. If you want to know how lost Europe is, how thoroughly it has abandoned freedom of speech, get this: two French music festivals have banned Eagles of Death Metal, the American rock…

Hatred of Apostates
Another similarity between leftists and radical Muslims.

Will the ‘True Conservative’ Please Stand Up?
Every morning I find a new batch of anti-Trump articles by so-called conservatives. These anti-Trumpsters clearly see the man's many negatives, but most of them refuse to come clean on the question: "Do you advocate not voting for Trump thereby aiding and abetting a Clinton victory? Yes or no?" Add to the list Michael Gerson…

Capitulation
Here: A town has voted not to fly the flag of St George in case it offends Muslims. Radstock in Somerset has a population of 5,620, 16 of them Muslim, census data shows.

Are Any Christians in the Middle East Safe?
Yes, the ones in Israel. ………………………….. UPDATE 4/15: J. S. writes: I happen to live in Beirut and feel safe enough in the Christian area, which is the eastern quarter of the city along with big chunks of Mt. Lebanon and the coastal area as far north asTripoli, which is a Sunni hotbed. I've asked…

The Religion of Archeological Preservation
If Islam is the religion of peace, then it is also the religion of archeological preservation. Modus tollens or modus ponens?

Islam and the Radical West
Bret Stephens: "The political orthodoxy of the left is the gateway drug to jihad." Quite so. See my Why the Left Will Not Admit the Threat of Radical Islam

Islamic Terror and Collective Guilt
Spencer Case concludes: If white moderates deserve blame for their inaction against Jim Crow, then perhaps moderate Muslims today can be faulted for failing to combat a culture of jihad. I would add, however, that while Jim Crow has been eliminated, the same cannot be said for the culture of jihad. I should think that…

How Islamists are Slowly Desensitizing Europe and America
You need to read it. My message to Islamists:

Zuhdi Jasser, Profile in Civil Courage
I have had the pleasure of hearing Dr. Jasser speak twice, a few days ago right in my own neighborhood. He is an outstanding American and a Muslim, one who demonstrates that it is possible to be a moderate Muslim who accepts American values including the separation of church/mosque and state. I have reproduced, below…

Europe at the Edge of the Abyss
Another outstanding essay by Victor Davis Hanson. I am tempted to quote the entire piece. I shall resist the temptation. Because of what Europe has become, it now has few viable choices in dealing with radical Islamic terrorism. Its dilemma is a warning to Americans that we should turn away from a similar path of…

Representatives of the ‘Religion of Peace’ Crucify Priest on Good Friday
Here. What's the big deal? These things happen. As compared to the number of traffic fatalities in Muslim lands over the last ten years the number of crucifixions is vanishingly small. You are statistically illiterate if you are worried about being crucified as opposed to dying in a traffic accident. I am of course being…

Brussels? What’s the Big Deal?
In the 22 March 2016 attack in Brussels 34 people (31 victims and 3 perpetrators) were killed and 300 injured. Why should anyone care about this? In 2013 in Belgium alone there were 746 traffic-related fatalities. And in 2010 there were in Belgium 197 gun-related deaths. Surely it can't be rational to get excited over…
