FlyDubai – not
It seems that we had a Flight 93 situation with a happier ending. But then again, compared to 9/11, this time the terrorists didn’t have to slay both pilots to take over the plane. The terrorist was one of the … Continue reading →

Mamdani didn’t stop Netanyahu from speaking at the UN after all
Not that he ever could have done so. But Mamdani’s bluster was that he would arrest Netanyahu if he dared to set foot in the city. Here’s an excerpt from Netanyahu’s speech that I think encapsulates the irony of the … Continue reading →
In case you haven’t followed what Tucker Carlson’s been saying lately (and I can understand it if you haven’t), he seems to be heartily endorsing El-Sayed
And for anyone who has paid attention to him, that should not be a surprise. Nor am I exaggerating; take a look: Tucker Carlson has unexpectedly praised Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, calling his platform “literally Trumpian” and saying … Continue reading →
You may not be interested in Third-Worldism, but Third-Worldism is interested in you
In recent weeks I’ve heard the term “Third-Worldism” more and more often. Or maybe I’ve just noticed it more. Perhaps you’ve had the same experience. But what is it?: Here’s a piece on the topic [my emphasis]: … [T]oday’s condemnation … Continue reading →
Remember Hamas?
The peace deal has been limping along and supposedly has reached the point of Hamas agreeing to disarm, with a plan. I hesitate to comment or even to quote “experts” on it, because – if previous experience is any guide … Continue reading →
Why attacks on Jews lead to more Jew-hatred
I’ve got something like twenty drafts of posts dealing with different aspects of Jew-hatred. The topic is so multi-faceted and so overwhelming that most of them have remained in draft form and never been finished and published. But it’s a … Continue reading →

Crowds in Madison, Wisconsin, are claiming that Corey Ruiz is the latest victim of police violence against black men. Here’s the story: The Madison police officer who shot and killed Corey Ruiz should face criminal charges, civil rights attorney Ben … Continue reading →
Have Muslims and Jews been “at war” for “thousands of years”?
I hear or read that quite frequently. It seems to be a very commonly held belief. But I think it’s a misunderstanding or a lie, depending on the answer to the “fool or knave” question. First of all, Islam hasn’t … Continue reading →
And then there’s Mamdani
Kulak landlords beware: Mamdani’s plan is to have DCWP [Department of Consumer and Worker Protection] work with the City Council on new legislation that would stipulate landlords could require either a credit check — paid for by the landlord or … Continue reading →
More reflections on Vance – and also on Rubio
I already wrote a post on Vance’s Joe Rogan appearance, but it turns out I have more to say. The more I think about Vance, the more uneasy I become. It’s been cumulative, but the Rogan interview is somewhat of … Continue reading →
Vance reveals himself, and it’s not pretty
It’s been clear for quite some time that Vance has been flirting with the Tucker Carlson wing of the anti-Israel right. He’s refused to separate himself from Carlson by criticizing him, no matter how egregiously anti-Israel Tucker becomes; how many … Continue reading →
Leftists, Ukraine, and Iran
Commenter “physicsguy” asks a good question: Another conundrum trying to understand the mind of leftists. I know…an impossible task. But someone explain to me why the ones I know enthusiastically cheer every drone strike the Ukrainians make on Russia? Why … Continue reading →
