Blog links

Now that three (or more?) blogs have me in their blogrolls, according to Technorati, I want to list them and recommend them to y’all as interesting places to visit because the proprietors are able writers with interesting turns of mind.

Top of the list, because he was the first, is Simply Jews, an Israeli satirist who goes by the nom de plume of Snoopy the Goon. His pose as an Elder of Zion, a director of the alleged Jewish conspiracy to rule the world, is pretty funny, if you like that sort of thing as I do. Next up is another satirist who uses a nom de blog, New Yorker Akaky Bashmachkin, at The Passing Parade. If his name doesn’t immediately remind you of something literary, do a Google on it. And, most recently, there is Deborah, of The Thought Mill, a Russian feminist with a Western view of life.

Among others who have linked to posts of mine, at one time or another, are the venerable Instapundit, Navy veteran Crazy Politico’s Rantings, the graphics-crazy Good Richard’s Alamanc, and Murky View, a Canadian blogger who recently decided (on the strength of one post at Instapundit) that I am "disconnected from reality." Given the opportunity, I would dispute that, of course. All are worth your time. 

What are we fighting for?

Deborah at The Thought Mill sums up one aspect of it very impressively–the rights of women.

"Miss America’s father is an engineer. Her mother is a teacher. Miss Afghanistan’s father was shot by a gang of Taliban militants. Her mother begs for bread scraps since she cannot work or remarry."
