I posted previously regarding the efforts of Senators Evan Bayh (D-IN) and James Risch (R-ID) to press Obama to put pressure on the Arab world. Despite some rabblerousing by the leftist organization Americans for Peace Now, trying to stop the impact of the letter and trying to counter the initiative with a letter of... »

- Rolling Stone’s Bizarre Cheap Shot At Sarah Palin
March 28, 2011
I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...] - More Disgustingly Overt Reuters Bias
March 24, 2011
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...] - Bloomberg’s “Crash Tax”
March 24, 2011While reading last month’s issue of AAA’s Car & Travel magazine, I was surprised to discover that Bloomberg (with the FDNY behind him) is now trying to push a “crash tax” on anyone involved in a car accident, with such taxes ranging from $365 up to $490, depending on the severity of the crash. The [...]
- Obama’s Abu Ghraib
March 21, 2011The latest news out of Afghanistan is going to be really interesting to follow, if only to see how the media handles it. According to the Guardian and other (so far relatively few) sources, pictures have now made their way out of Afghanistan (courtesy of Germany’s Der Spiegel) showing brutal and psychopathic activities by U.S. [...]
- Sympathy For Israel? Time To Restore “Balance”!
March 16, 2011
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]

Al-Arabiya TV Deputy Secretary-General Calls for Resettlement of Palestinian Refugees
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009
Yesterday, MEMRI put out a special dispatch to highlight several articles published by the Daoud al-Shiryan, the Deputy Secretary-General of al-Arabiya TV, on the plight of the Palestinian “refugees”—those perpetual refugees still living in perpetual refugee camps due to the restrictive policies of their host countries. Al-Shiryan criticizes the way these countries have treated them... »
Health Care Mythology
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009
Dr. Clifford S. Asness has written a very interesting (and entertaining) essay on the common myths currently being thrown around in the health care debate. This essay is a must-read for anyone who wants a basic understanding of the debate today. (It is also available on his site in PDF format). Although I encourage... »
