Al Qaeda Summer Camp

Videos from Iraq recently show that Al Qaeda is training kids as young as 10 to be militants and hold people hostage, and pledge their allegiance to Al Qaeda.

International Law My Ass

Israel's court recently declared legal a cut in provision of fuel and electricity to the Gaza Strip, which is currently under the control of Hamas, a terrorist group that has vowed to destroy Israel, as a punishment for continued terror attacks on Israel. Meanwhile, Israeli "human rights" activists (more like "Hamas rights" activists) have declared this move as against international law. Well, guess what?! Hamas doesn't give a shit about international law! Stop having mercy on terrorists!

Walking a Thin Line on Race

Wall Street I-Bankers "Feel the Pain"

I'm sure the i-bankers' precipitous drop in bonuses has made making ends meet difficult.

The Real Huck

Republican candidate Mike Huckabee is showing two faces to the American public. He went on a talk show to play his bass guitar, portraying himself as a hip liberal, when people forget that in reality he is a conservative minister who holds anti-abortion and anti-gay marriage positions. People need to pay attention to who they vote for.

Annapolis Peace Conference

One of the things that worried me about the Annapolis Conference was the fact that basic facts were being overlooked. I support making peace with the Palestinians, but Hamas was ignored and it was assumed that Abbas, who is weak, would be able to assert himself over them. I believe Abbas was trying to get a lot of concessions from Israel on core issues such as Jerusalem, the settlements, and the return of Palestinian refugees (who Israel will never allow to return and should not, and I'm not sure they should be compensated either--let the Arab nations who have treated them as garbage for the past 60 years take responsibility for the results of the war they started themselves) without ensuring that he would be able to ensure peace or cessation of violence in return. It was a good start but we have to start talking about the real issues and looking at reality.
