Liberated from the grip of Mubarak, the new Egypt is a land where the Israeli embassy gets attacked and ransacked, Christians get killed and their churches burned to the ground, female reporters for the western media are sexually assaulted in broad daylight, and for the rest of the gals a woman's place is in the clitoridectomy clinic. The difference between a dictator and a fanatic, is that the dictator will be satisfied if you pay your taxes and refrain from challenging his authority. The fanatic will not be happy until he completely dominates all aspects of your life.

I’m more of a bow guy than a stern guy. (Not that there’s anything wrong with it.)

for a "social media revolution," the principal beneficiaries seem to be remarkably antisocialThat's the case with most revolutions. Steyn understands that. The idiots who reported on that wonderful "Arab Spring" don't. Obama doesn't. Hillary doesn't.
We have the wrong people in charge. Some days it's annoying. Other days, it's downright dangerous.
