Violence on campus

Even Arab Muslim journalists need police protection if they make a habit of writing what they see:

"…we should not be surprised if the next generation of jihadists comes not from the Gaza Strip or the mountains and mosques of Pakistan and Afghanistan, but from university campuses across the U.S."

Not that the problem is limited to U.S. university campuses.

Muslim beheading comes to New York

The Religion of Peace is at it again. It’s just changed venues. An old tale told in a new setting. Lucky us.

UPDATE: Meanwhile, this crime has become one more illustration of why American newspapers are dying. They could puff this guy – before he became a murderer in a typically-Muslim fashion – but now they not only can’t report what he did on the front page but they try to excuse his method on page twenty-six. Pathetic.

Stimulate this!

I’m actually of two minds on the issue of whether Barry’s client Big Media ought to be photographing the flag-draped coffins of fallen troops. On the one hand I do not like censorship, such as Barry’s congressional minions are preparing to practice in forging a new law that has the effect of quashing right radio.

On the other hand, the CNN questioner at Barry’s first presser put Big Media’s real interest out there when he asked if the policy of not allowing photographs of the coffins could be overturned by The One: "Ed Henry with CNN, who asked the President whether he thought the arrival of American coffins at Dover should be accessible to the media to ‘show America the real cost of the war….’"

If you want right radio to be allowed, then how can you argue for hiding the coffins? Well, one is free speech, the other is honoring the dead by not turning them into a political spectacle. Plus the coffin policy has been around since 1991. It was not created by Bushitler to thwart the NYTimes and Code Pink.

Those Iraq elections

We didn’t hear much about the Iraq elections. A few purple-finger photos, but that’s all. Why? Too quiet. Besides, making a big deal about it would only make W. look good and Big Media would never do that. But the Marine, MG John Kelley, who until recently ran Al Anbar province notes that, for its people, this was the first free election of their lives.

Hamas: Taking their children to work

Not just one special day each year, but every day. You can’t fire a rocket at a daycare center without one.

The enemy within

With Barry’s apparent plan to withdraw from the war on terror and the foreign jihadis, domestic jihadis could become more of a problem:

"…multiculturalism, political correctness and the greed for votes, makes our own government turn a blind eye to the poison within our ranks. I’ve written and spoken about these phenomenon myriads of times to point out that the Wahhabi/Salafi ideology is built on hate and spews a nasty political message, blatantly ignoring the spiritual message of Islam."

A long, a good read, a FrontPage forum with five women, all to one degree or another terrorism experts.

UPDATE:  Need proof? How about this: Hamas burned an Israeli flag on the steps of the Minnesota state capitol on Jan. 5. What in the world are they doing in Minnesota?

Barry to Pentagon: Cut 11 percent

Strategic retreat, indeed. B. Hussein Obama hinted at such a retreat in his interview with Al-Arabiya, looking back thirty years (the Carter administration) to a purported U.S.-Arab Golden Age. Not that the bloated Pentagon couldn’t lose its spare tire, but the times certainly are not propitious for dieting. With all that battered equipment from Iraq that needs replacing. Especially not with a trillion in civilian pork already moving through the Congressional intestine. ACORN could get a few billion. The military must cut fifty-five billion.
