errorism: As in Paris, where the White House insists four Jews in a kosher market were randomly selected for slaughter, the statement condemning IS beheading 21 Egyptians omits a key fact: all were Christians. Speaking of the Chapel Hill, N.C., murder of three Muslims, President Obama, as his FBI began an investigation into whether it was a "hate crime," issued a statement saying that "no one in the United States of America should ever be targeted because of who they are, what they look like or how they worship." Indeed not. Yet, we could find no such sentiment or statement...

If once is an MSNBC aberration, is twice is a trend? Earlier today we reported on Ed Schultz getting surprisingly angry over the fecklessness of the Obama administration's weakness in confronting ISIS, calling the situation a "religious war." Just two hours later, Chris Matthews sounded a similar alarm, saying "if I were ISIS I wouldn't be afraid . . . the American people are getting humiliated . . . it sounds like we can't stop it." Have we reached a watershed moment among normally dutiful MSM supporters of President Obama? View the video here.

The 21 men beheaded on a Mediterranean beach in a video released by Islamist savages Sunday were killed because of their Coptic Christian faith, by men who proclaimed the reason for the murders before the whole world.

All beheadings are grotesque but Muslim beheadings are the most reckless, repulsive, and reprehensible because they are religiously inspired. Islamic hypocrisy is astounding. Well, the barbarians did it again! Islamic terrorists in Syria released a video Sunday of their beheading of American aid worker Peter Kassig, of Indianapolis, who had recently converted to Islam! The video also shows about a dozen Syrian military men being beheaded. Kassig is the fifth westerner to be beheaded. It seems modern Muslims are giving past decapitators a bad name! Alexander Blackwell (died 1747) was a British adventurer who was involved in a mysterious plot...

Boko Haram, the extremist Islamic group, reportedly beheaded seven people Monday in Nigeria in revenge attacks, which were described by one resident as the way butchers "slaughter goats."

About 15 fighters for Boko Haram died in the past few weeks, The Christian Post reported. The victims were found in the rural town of Ngamdu and were...

For months, Islamic State militants rampaged across Syria and Iraq, seizing cities, taking hostages and terrorizing all who dared to confront them. The tide began to turn in mid-August, when U.S. airstrikes pushed them from key Iraqi battlegrounds. Then, on Aug. 19, the group released a video that showed the beheading of American freelance journalist James Foley. The pattern continued. Within days of a military defeat, the group would release images of more beheadings — at least nine over six weeks — of Western journalists, aid workers and Muslim soldiers. The tactic signals that even as the Islamic State group...

You’re not the first who’s ever tried to kill me What makes you think I would turn and run? You underestimate these United States And the righteous might of people standing as one We exist to fan the flame of freedom We’ve fought and bled and died- we overcome Hey...
