Liberman has it right

Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman had this to say at a Jerusalem Post sponsored diplomatic conference in Israel the other day.

“My sense is that all the promises and commitments to Israel’s security are mere words. When push comes to shove, many key leaders would be willing to sacrifice Israel without batting an eyelid in order to appease radical Islamist militants and ensure quiet for themselves.”

United Nations sanctions and rewards hatred, violence, murder, terrorism, corruption and duplicity

The United Nations vote to grant observer status to Palestinians and therefore recognize a de facto Palestinian state was evil.

Uh-oh

Iran is crowing that Israel's accepting a ceasefire is a sign of weakness.

Is Israel setting up Hamas?

Israel made a big mistake by signing a cease-fire agreement with Hamas and not sending its army into Gaza to root out and remove the terrorist organization.

Should Israel sign a cease-fire agreement with Hamas?

Israel should not agree to a cease-fire. It should quit messing around, quit deluding itself that it can stop Hamas from firing rockets and launching terrorist attacks against Israelis with rockets of its own, invade, wipe out Hamas and re-occupy Gaza.

You really have to admire Israel

It is Hamas in Gaza that is responsible for the outbreak of the violence....There is no justification for firing rockets on Israel which are causing massive suffering to the Israeli population. The Chancellor of Germany urges those responsible in the Gaza Strip to immediately stop firing on Israel.

Palestinian rockets no surprise

Palestinians have launched massive rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza since President Obama was re-elected in the United States. The rockets are aimed at Israeli towns and cities in order to terrorize, maim and murder Israeli civilians and destroy as much infrastructure and property as possible.

Israel will be around a lot longer than Obama - America will too

President Obama’s antipathy for Israel is well-known and well-documented and so are his pro-Islamic, pro-Palestinian, pro-Jihadist and anti-American proclivities and policies.

Iranian jets attack the United States - America responds by sending a protest

Two Iranian jets attacked an unmanned American drone in international airspace over the Persian Gulf last week. The jets failed to bring the drone down even though they fired continuously until it managed to return safely to its base. Instead of responding militarily the U.S. responded by sending a protest to the Iranian government. Even though the attack occurred a few days before the November 6 presidential election in the United States the American public didn’t find out about it until November 8, two days after the election.

Blockheads of the day - Americans who voted for Obama

Americans who voted for Obama in the U.S. presidential election yesterday should have asked themselves some basic questions before doing so.

A message to Americans—get out and vote for Romney

Americans need to stand up for America and get out and vote for Mitt Romney in tomorrow’s presidential election.

Obama attacks Americans’ civil liberties

Warrantless eavesdropping on Americans by federal government agencies has significantly expanded during President Obama’s time in office. The American Civil liberties Union has reported that there has been a dramatic increase in warrantless electronic surveillance under Obama and that between 2009 and 2011 the number of Americans who were subjected to telephone wiretapping more than doubled.

Thanks Geert, we’re indebted to you

Geert Wilders is a Dutch parliamentarian who is a passionate defender of free speech and freedom of expression and a fierce critic of Islam because he recognizes that free speech and freedom of expression cannot exist in an Islamic society, because he understands that Islam is completely incompatible with free, democratic, secular, pluralistic western societies, because he sees the terrible effect Islam is having in his own country, Holland, the rest of Europe and the western world in general and because he knows that Europe and the west are becoming more and more Islamized every day and that this Islamization must be stopped and reversed if the west is to survive.

Dereliction of duty amounting to murder

Media outlets in the United States have begun publishing lists of reasons why President Obama should not be re-elected in next week's presidential election.

Islamic mothers love

Here is a story that recently came to my attention. While ostensibly sad, ironic and humorous and even though it is most likely apocryphal it is nonetheless indicative of Palestinian and other Islamists attitudes towards their children and martyrdom in the name of Islam.

The future doesn’t have to be like the past and the present

The Arab News is Saudi Arabia’s first english language daily newspaper and enjoys wide distribution in Saudi Arabia itself and throughout the Middle East. Three days ago the newspaper published a very courageous column under the byline of one Abdulateef Al-Mulhim entitled “Arab Spring and the Israeli enemy” which spoke about the utility and futility of Arab-Israeli wars over the years and asked whether or not Israel is the real enemy of Arabs, particularly Palestinians, and the Arab world. The conclusion was that the real enemies of Arabs and the Arab world are “corruption, lack of good education, lack of good health care, lack of freedom, lack of respect for human lives” and “dictators who used the Arab-Israeli conflict to suppress their own people.”

Passivity has lead to disaster and disaster will lead to catastrophe

Mitt Romney gave a speech in Virginia this morning about the foreign policy he would implement if he was elected President next month. He made the basic principle that his foreign policy would be based on very clear. It is ‘Hope is not enough...if you want something to happen the way you want it to you have to make it happen, not sit back and hope that it will.’

Red Line Deadline

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the United Nations that Iran would become a nuclear power unless it was stopped by next spring or early summer at the latest. He used a drawing of an exploding bomb to show everyone how close the Iranians are to developing nuclear weapons. As the drawing showed they are well past 70% of the way there and will reach 90% in the next 9 to 10 months...next spring or early summer. From that point it would only be a few weeks before Iran became a nuclear power.

Can’t say we haven’t been warned

President of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and President of Egypt Mohammed Morsi spoke before the United Nations General Assembly yesterday and reiterated the Islamic agenda yet again.

Countries that turn their swords into ploughshares get ploughed under

Former Vice President Dick Cheney has urged the U.S. to fight back against the protests which have been taking place in the Islamic world. Protests? What protests?
