On Friday Iran will quite possibly execute a Christian Pastor who converted to Christianity from Islam. On at least three occasions Iranian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani was given the chance to "repent" ... Unlike the Apostle Peter, Nadarkhani has NOT denied Our Lord. Should Iran carry through with his execution the man will be a true [...]

The Palestinians are all pumped-up to meet the U.N. head-on and declare a Palestinian state for themselves. So who does the Palestinian Authority choose to send to the U.N. to speak out for a recognized state? The "mother of seven prisoners and of the Shahid (Martyr) Abd Al-Mun'im Abu Hmeid." Four of those sons are [...]

September 11, 2001 became the defining moment of my political life. All the never thought of lessons of patriotism taught by my parents and educators, and reinforced by a childhood filled with 4th of July celebrations, all the carefully chosen books, movies and culture I was exposed to crystallized that day. It was the moment [...]

In memoriam.

A video remembrance from The Daily Caller.
Ten years have passed since 19 men hijacked 4 commercial airliners, destroying the World Trade Center towers and part of the Pentagon. For many, September 11th, 2001 will always be remembered as a day that changed life in America. Most will disagree on what those changes [...]

September 11, 2001: “Today: Less humid. Sunshine. High 79.”

Last week, a series of audio recordings were released by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) that detailed the aviation response on that horrible day. The New York Times has created a page that allows you hear the tapes with a rolling transcript. Kudos to them for doing [...]

September 11, 2001 - I was watching the 13" TV on my kitchen counter while feeding breakfast to my then 18 month old Lizzie Rose. She had just started attending "Center Base" class for special needs infants and toddlers at the nearby county MR/DD school. It was an incredible morning, my doors and windows open [...]

I think Col. West has channeled Gen. McAuliffe in directing CAIR as to where he wants them to 'Bite me!'

What's funny is the TV station had to actually dig around to search for the World War II, General Anthony McAuliffe reference and wasn't aware of it ... and is apparently still clueless as to West's [...]

For nearly ten years the U.S. Military and the U.S. government has bent over backward (and sometimes forward) to accommodate not only the radical Islamic detainees being held in Camp Gitmo but the world/US media and the human rights groups ... Human rights groups that typically ignore the real human rights abuses happening not far [...]

Just before the long holiday weekend there was something so interesting that developed it had to be pretty much buried by the MSM with wall-to-wall coverage of the Casey Anthony murder trial. Just in case you were parked on your sofa watching the trial, or slaving over a smokey grill poolside, you should know that [...]

Yes, we are concentrating on the financial and employment disaster going on right now within this country. Rightly so that when the 2012 POTUS election cycle comes around the old question should be used by the GOP ticket: "Are you better-off now than you were four years ago?"
However, what's going on under the radar of [...]

Wow! So much has transpired since Tunisia and Egypt tossed out their nasty dictators, huh? Yemen is on the brink of ousting their leadership (and somebody that has been a strong ally to us in the hunt for terrorists) once again upon the demands of the Obama administration. Jordan and Saudi Arabia are literally tip-toeing [...]

He was exercising his First Amendment Rights and killed nobody. As a matter of fact, it was HIS own private property, and unless he tries to make an insurance claim, I have no problem with him burning anything that is his private possession. I am not a fan of this guy, or the practice of [...]

I found this quite interesting, and it lends a bit more weight to Iran being one of the major influences in the current 'rebellions' in the Arab/Muslim countries.
We have hashed-out Egypt. As "rebels" increase their protests in Yemen, the president is suggesting he might step down ... Yemen being not only one of our allies [...]

I'm not going to say a word (such as ,"I told ya so..."). Talk amongst yourselves.
I'll just go stand over here and keep an eye on Libya, Syria, Yemen ... Israel ...
CAIRO — In post-revolutionary Egypt, where hope and confusion collide in the daily struggle to build a new nation, religion has emerged as a [...]

I'm shocked ... Shocked, I tell ya.
CAIRO — Egyptian voters overwhelmingly approved a referendum on constitutional changes on Sunday that will usher in rapid elections, with the results underscoring the strength of established political organizations, particularly the Muslim Brotherhood, and the weakness of emerging liberal groups.
More than 14.1 million voters, or 77.2 percent, approved [...]

You see, the Islamists have their "useful idiots" just as the communists do. Be very wary of what is unfolding with Libya ...
CAIRO - Hundreds of Islamists hurled stones at secular opposition figure Mohamed ElBaradei as he went to cast his ballot in a referendum in Egypt’s capital on Saturday, an AFP reporter said.
"We don’t [...]

Apparently the indigenous communists in this country haven't primed the pump enough for the radical Islamists to swoop in with Sharia.

TBA, eh, Choudary?
More here.
I guess Lady Liberty will have to wait on her burka fitting.
Who do both these groups think they're dealing with in this country? The American people might be 'fat and lazy', but [...]
