They just finished distancing themselves from Rauf after he was exposed as anything but "moderate." That’s why they brought in Adhami in the first place. And now they "sought yesterday to distance themselves from Adhami’s comments and backpedal on his role in the $100 million project." Who will be next?…

The historical ground trembles beneath our feet. And at this critical moment, our Presidential Speechifier has still not risen to the task.
By insisting on the one-person-one-vote in Iraq, the U.S. unwittingly aided the ascendancy of the Shi’ites, who constitute a majority of the Iraqi population. In doing so, the U.S. helped create what Iran is working hard to turn into a Shi’ite client state of the Islamic Republic. Nonetheless, that was…

An "Islamist" is generally a proponent of political Islam. I generally tend not to use the word, because many draw a distinction between "Islamic" and "Islamist," implying (and sometimes asserting outright) that political Islam is a twisting and hijacking of the original, presumably non-political, non-supremacist Islamic religion. Since that is…

Over the years, I have lost at least 50 feminist colleagues and friends to the Grim Reaper. But, I lost thousands more when I committed the unpardonable sin of deciding that Islamic gender and religious apartheid, jihad, and politically correct Leftism are even more dangerous to our freedom than the most ferociously stereotyped anti-abortion Christian conservative could ever be.
Larijani sees an opening for Islamic rule. "Iran Sees Rise of Islamic Hard-Liners," by William Yong in the New York Times, January 28 (thanks to all who sent this in): TEHRAN — Hopeful that the protests sweeping Arab lands may create an opening for hard-line Islamic forces, conservatives in Iran…

On Saturday January 29, anti-Zionist organizations barred hundreds of Jewish and pro-Israel gatherers from attending an event on the New Brunswick campus comparing Israeli actions to those of the Nazis. The program, titled “Never Again for Anyone,” intended to coincide with the UN sanctioned International Holocaust Remembrance Day and “honor” the victims of the Holocaust.

I don’t go into network TV shows expecting conservative values or anything, but I am always surprised when they go off the deep end pushing the Left’s point of view with the ferocity of terrorized Scotts wielding a battering ram. Harry’s Law is so far left and over the top, it’s riotously funny for reasons the writers never intended.
