Great article. According to The Sunday Telegraph, on this week's whirlwind tour of the Great Satan, the Prince of Wales "will try to persuade George W Bush and Americans of the merits of Islam…because he thinks the United States has been too intolerant of the religion since September 11". His Royal Highness apparently finds the Bush approach to Islam "too confrontational". If the Prince wants to take a few examples of the non-confrontational approach with him to the White House, here...

MEDIA/DNC NICKNAME 'SCALITO' SEEN AS RACIALLY INSENSITIVE Mon Oct 31 2005 08:42:57 ET Before Judge Samuel Alito was even officially announced as President Bush’s next Supreme Court nominee, he met a wave of racial discrimination from numerous corners of the mainstream media and the Democrat Party. Because of Judge Alito’s conservative and Italian-American background he is often been compared to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and has been nicknamed by the mainstream media "Scalit...

That day has now been brought measurably closer by the publication of the report of the Senate's Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. This report, which comes with a vast archive of supporting material, was embargoed until 10 p.m. Monday and contains the "smoking gun" evidence that Galloway, along with his wife and his chief business associate, were consistent profiteers from Saddam Hussein's regime and its criminal exploitation of the "Oil for Food" program. In particular: 1)...

Great article on how hate and libel laws are being used by islamists. I was prevented from attending a meeting last weekend that I organized in the U.K. on "How to Combat Terror Financing." Had I gone, I would have been in jeopardy due to British libel laws. I have been sued for libel in London by the Saudi billionaire Sheikh Khalid bin Mahfouz because my book, Funding Evil, documents how his charity, the Muwafaq Foundation, "transferred at least $3 million, on behalf of Khalid bin Ma...

I found this article and found it to be an interesting read. This little controversy that is brewing over my remarks last week has been quite instructive, if not entertaining. As you know, I opined that in a time of disaster it would make sense to try to save those members of society who actually actually contribute to the economy, rather than drain it. Save the makers first, the takers later. Look at it this way. If you save the takers, and let the makers expire ... just who are the...

The terrorist leader al-zarqawi received a letter from the other terrorist leader alzawahri. Here is some noteworthy translations. You might ask an important question: What drives me to broach these matters while we are in the din of war and the challenges of killing and combat? My answer is, firstly: Things may develop faster than we imagine. The aftermath of the collapse of American power in Vietnam — and how they ran and left their agents — is noteworthy. Because of that, we must...

One of the lefties favorite arguements here on JU is "polls". A certain obsessive Bush hater swears by every poll that somehow supports his position. Although he seems to discredit any poll that shows the opposite. Now we have another post about Bush's approval ratings. Now every person, let me make that, every normal person should realize that media polls are biased and manipulated. Let's look at that recent CBS "poll". Total Respondents 808 Wow. 808 people polled. Yet you expe...

Since col wants to believe "battle hardened soldiers" from Iraq. Here is some letters from them. "Linda- Im very proud of you. Every day we are reminded how crucial it is what exactly we are doing. Countless IEDs, Indirect Fire and sporadic sniper fire are continuous reminders as well. As the news reports of the Iraqi constitution this and the constitution that, it is amazing they don’t even recognize that what they are reporting is a monumental thing called democracy in action.

NOVELTY pig calendars and toys have been banned from a council office — in case they offend Muslim staff. Workers in the benefits department at Dudley Council, West Midlands, were told to remove or cover up all pig-related items, including toys, porcelain figures, calendars and even a tissue box featuring Winnie the Pooh and Piglet. Bosses acted after a Muslim complained about pig-shaped stress relievers delivered to the council in the run-up to the Islamic festival of Ramadan. Mus...

On Thursday, following a full day of news coverage, 37% said the charges were based upon the facts while 39% said they were poli...
