Well. I’m impressed.

Hillary’s new diet is really working. I hardly recognized her in the photo!

More Deep Thoughts

Of course, frothing Imams don’t have the corner on idiotarianism. My guess is that this bundle of earnestness is a victim of US public education.

If the future is in his hands, kiss our civilization goodbye.

Meltdown

As if setting out to prove single-handedly that “Islamic thought” is an oxymoron, Imam Husham Al-Husainy drives the point home with the sledgehammer that is his dizzying intellect. Take a listen, and savor the subtlety.

English is the Lingua Franca

I just love saying that, because it’s a tri-lingual joke now. I’m reminded of it because the prissy busibodies in Brussells are campaigning to make French, the dying tongue of an irrelevant country, the de facto legal standard in the EU.

“Currently we have 23 official languages in the EU, that’s a true Tower of Babel. We need to chose a benchmark language for all judiciary texts, and we believe it should be French, for its precision and rigor,” said Maurice Druon, a French academic and a former Culture Minister.

I wonder if that was translated to English.

There’s little hope that this means they’ve rejected multiculturalism.

Selective Enforcement at YouTube

There’s a man from the Atheist religion who posts videos critical of other religions. YouTube, apparently being cowed by Islamic pressure groups, pulled down the anti-Islam videos and also cancelled his account. The anti-Christian videos? Oh, they’re just fine. I suppose the Christians need to start beheading people and strapping bombs to their kids or something.

Squeeze Iran

Kenneth Timmerman says that even our baby steps toward smacking down Iran’s influence in Iraq are having an effect.

“In Tehran, they are now referring to the United States as mar-rouye domesh vastadeh – the Cobra standing on his tail,” says Shahriar Ahy, an Iranian-born political analyst who helped build the post-war broadcasting network in Iraq.

The sea-change began on January 10, when President George W. Bush announced that the United States would no longer tolerate Iranian and Syrian intelligence officers using Iraq as a playground for their murderous games.

The difference between a Jihadist and a mule is that the mule responds to the carrot, too.
