The Immigration Disintegration

If someone were to argue that he could eat as much as he wanted and whatever he wanted without any ill effects, you would naturally assume that he was either stupid, a liar or a late night TV pitchman for some sort of miracle wonder diet powder.

A Misguided Faith in Evolution

Faith is at the heart of any belief system which fits a particular worldview, whether it be a Creator designed world or one that was produced as a result of a multi-billion year game of evolutionary solitaire. Now there's no doubt that animals adapt to their environment and that such adaptation can be favorable in the genetic lottery but the full scope of earth's biological diversity was not produced as a result of a genetic lottery that is the equivalent of putting a billion monkeys in a room with a billion typewriters and waiting a billion years until they produce Shakespeare.

Arafat and Mugabe: Diplomacy’s Monsters

Apocalyptic Liberals

"We'll be eight degrees hotter in ten, not ten but 30 or 40 years and basically none of the crops will grow. Most of the people will have died and the rest of us will be cannibals. Civilization will have broken down." --Ted Turner

A Choice of Freedoms

With the release of Fitna, it is a good time to consider the question of freedom in the face of Jihadist terror. Freedom is defined by choice. Choice defines us. The choices we make and do not make define who we are. On a global scale, the intricate webwork of choices that people make interact with each other to create the past, the present and the future.

WW2 and the Iraq War - History Repeats Itself

In many ways history is a cycle of repeating events and it can be instructive to look at WW2 and the Iraq War to see how they overlap and what lessons we should learn from it.

Civilization and the Noble Savage

What causes a culture, a people, a nation to hate itself? This is a viral question for those of us living in First World countries threatened by the rising tide of Islamic terrorism and migration because it is readily apparent that the growing threat we face would not exist were there not an active liberal and left wing agenda to encourage the destruction of entire nations and appease and apologize for their terrorist acts.

Idealism Without Ideas

The greatest triumph of leftist intellectuals in their attack on the vast body of knowledge and education inherited by the modern era from the treasury of ideas of Western civilization has been to fragment ideas and language itself until neither have any meaning, except as vehicles for emotional rhetoric or a specialized vocabulary

The Land is the Essence of a Nation’s Identity

When a nation loses touches with its agricultural identity, inevitably it loses touch with its national identity as well. It is no coincidence that in first world countries, those closest to the soil are also likely to be the most conservative, patriotic and nationalistic.

Kosovo and Islam’s Balkanization of the World

Even as the world rushes to embrace the newly manufactured Kosovo as a country, the rise of a splinter Muslim country in Europe can't help but give hope to Islamic terrorists fighting to create breakaway states in Thailand, the Philippines, Israel, India and Kenya among many others.

Reclaiming a Civilization’s Dreams to Save its Soul

The surest way to destroy a people is to kill their dreams because when you destroy a people's dreams, you also destroy their sense of self-worth, their ambitions, their principles and their goals.

Are We Already Living as Dhimmis?

Polls show that 40 percent of British Muslims want Sharia, Islamic Law implemented in the UK and the government has moved to accommodate them.

The Nanny State and the Red Queen’s Race

"Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else — if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing."

The Terrorist Cancer and the Cure for the Middle East

How do you fight cancer in an infected patient? Conventional wisdom would say that you do it by attacking the cancer cells in the body. When it comes to terrorism however, the West's prescription for fighting terrorism is to attack the healthy cells in the body instead.

Alfred Must Die so that Mahmoud May Live

There's always a price for everything, socialism though builds its promises on a government bureaucracy that will give you a free lunch. But the government bureaucracy isn't free and there's quite a tab to pick up for the lunch too.

In Defense of Waterboarding

The most common objections made to waterboarding are that

A World on the Dole

If there is one fundamental difference between conservatives and liberals, it's that conservatives believes in self-sufficiency while liberals prefer government control and social management. While many conservatives recognize this phenomenon on the individual and community level, fewer realize that this is the case on the national and global level.
