Re:Re: Ridge declaration
I'd like to add a corollary to Derb's observation, with which I am in complete agreement, that "it is not obviously true in itself" that democratizing the Middle East (or at least Iraq) is vital to U.S. security. As Derb points out, we have indeed gotten on comfortably with gangster ...Read More...

Judge Dismisses Khobar Towers Suit Against Iran
Ken Timmerman, via Newsmax, has the story. Ken reports that the Judge refused to weigh testimony from former high-ranking FBI officials (including former Director Louie Freeh) which implicated Iran:

Whatever Happened to "Never Surrender"
If I watch 10 seconds of the World Cup, that will be 9 more than last time. But its imminence has stoked a controversy about patriotism in Great Britain, where elites — often intimidated by or pandering to Islam and its radical element — are ordering people not to fly or otherwise ...Read More...

When Comprehensive Is Bad, Phased Does Not Make It Better
Reading this immigration discussion, I'm reminded of the old line about how the difference between a liberal and a moderate is that the liberal says, "Let's burn down the town," while the moderate counters with something like, "No, let's torch three buildings a year over five years."
Something ...Read More...

Jackpot Justice in Oakland
You can bet our troops are not the only ones who will have to endure hours of sensitivity training. A state jury in Alameda County has awarded $61 MILLION in damages to two Americans of Lebanese descent (Edgar Rizkallah and Kamil Issa) after they won their harassment suit against FedEx.

CAN WE AFFECT TWO DEBATES WITH ONE SIMPLE QUESTION?
Given the news that Iran is talking about sharing its nascent nuke know-how with Sudan (where bin Laden just told all the jihadists they should head in last week's tape), I have a simple question I'd love to hear Congress answer:
Can the United States afford to take any action against Iran if ...Read More...

IMMIGRATION & GOVERNMENT � AN ODDITY
Here is what I wish someone who knows the immigration issue better than I do would explain.
I worked in government for many years. As even those who have not worked in government know, the general order of things is inertia, and that the urgent overwhelms the important.
Immigration “reform,” ...Read More...

The Way It Is
Obviously, I agree with the editorial elsewhere on National Review Online today that calls that the prosecution of Abdul Rahman in Afghanistan is an “affront to civilization.” I’m constrained to note, however, that if we are willing to live in a world where policy is premised on polite ...Read More...
