After abusing her incapacitated husband, Dr. Jill was brought to tears as she praised Joe Biden for lighting the world on fire. The Biden-Harris Regime has destroyed the economy. Biden-Harris tax-and-spend policies have led to the worst inflation crisis in more than 100 years. More and more Americans are falling behind on credit card bills. US credit card debt has soared past $1.4 trillion as inflation crushes hard-working families. The world is on the brink of World War 3 as Biden reportedly discusses giving Ukraine nuclear weapons after he already gave them long-range missiles to use against Russia. Biden spent...

Russia's “partial mobilization” and its sham referendums to justify the annexation of four provinces in Eastern Ukraine create new sources of uncertainty about the future course of the war. Yet Russia's actions should also produce a rare moment of strategic clarity for Ukraine's partners: No viable path to negotiated peace remains, and any result short of Ukrainian victory will be, in the long run, a worse outcome for the rules-based international order. The third, and more politically significant, alternative falls somewhere between the first two. This camp decries Russia's barbarity and lauds Ukrainians' bravery while, at same time, worrying about...

Iran, the United States and other world powers struck a historic deal Tuesday to curb Iranian nuclear programs and ease fears of a nuclear-armed Iran threatening the volatile Middle East. In exchange, Iran will get billions of dollars in relief from crushing international sanctions. The accord, reached after long, fractious negotiations, marks a dramatic break from decades of animosity between the United States and Iran, countries that have labeled each other the "leading state sponsor of terrorism" and "the Great Satan." "This deal offers an opportunity to move in a new direction," President Barack Obama declared at the White House...

The Irony of Immortality By Norma Zager The recent scene in a West Wing rerun was startling familiar. It dealt with Iran’s pursuit of The Bomb and the United States’ warning to Israel to discontinue settlement activity. It could have been filmed this morning and yet it was ten years old. Is this a tribute to Aaron Sorkin and his fellow writers’ ability to foresee the future? Or is it merely a testament to man’s inability to evolve? Watching the story unfold I was struck by a great irony. Man’s driving force is his desire for immortality. This fuels his...

Little is said about President Ahmadinejad's background even his official biography lacks a lot of information. But by understanding who Ahmadinejad is, and where he comes from proves how dangerous this man really is. In the book, "The Bomb and the Koran," French journalist Michel Taubmann gives us some insight into the Iranian despots Ahmadinejad biography. Ahmadinejad and the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei practice the Hojjatieh's interpretation of Shiism. This type of Islam has a very messianic and apocalyptic view of the world. It predicts a period of universal chaos before the return of the Mahdi (the 12th imam,...

The editor of an Arabic daily newspaper published in London said in an interview on Lebanese television that he would dance in Trafalgar Square if Iranian missiles hit Israe Talking about Iran's nuclear capability on ANB Lebanese television on June 27, Abd Al-Bari Atwan, editor-in-chief of Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper, said, "If the Iranian missiles strike Israel, by Allah, I will go to Trafalgar Square and dance with delight." In the interview, Bari Atwan was asked if he thought there is a process of détente [vis-à-vis Iran] and an American-Iranian inclination to reach a deal on Iran's nuclear ambitions. "If there...

The choice facing the world is chillingly, hauntingly clear: destroy Iran's growing nuclear capabilities and overthrow its manic regime, or wake up one morning to a second, far more deadly 9/11, in which a North American city is reduced to rubble by an Iranian atomic bomb. So goes the stark argument, and the clear warning, issued by advocates of a military attack on Iran. "If Iran gets nuclear warheads, we will surely awaken to a morning much like Sept. 11, 2001, when it will have been cities, rather than merely buildings, that have been immolated," says David Harris, a former...

Saturday, February 25, 2006Iran, Hamas, and the Threat of Nuclear Holocaust The front page of the Arabic website of the military wing of Hamas, the Ezzedeen alQassam Brigades, features an animated graphic at the top on the right hand column. It's a black rectangle with a red Star of David. The Jewish star shatters with a nuclear explosion. This graphic is notably missing from the English language website. Only the Jerusalem Post and a few pro-Israel blogs found this particularly newsworthy. Interestingly enough this graphic appeared on the exact same day Iran offered to fund the Hamas-lead Palestinian government. For...
