Here’s an interesting call to PsyWar arms: The Islamists have enjoyed a long run in which they have directed the most hateful imaginable propaganda and violence against Jews, Christians, Hindus, and the wrong kinds of Muslims…It is this article’s purpose … Continue reading →
Meanwhile, of course, real religious wars are going on, and it’s Muslim extremists/terrorists who are driving them: Islamist gunmen burst into a Kenyan university before dawn Thursday, shooting students and taking hostages in a terror attack that left 70 dead, … Continue reading →
…is that he’s a fool rather than a knave. It’s come down to that. There are still defenders (or at least partial defenders) of Obama’s Middle East policy, and they’re not even all liberals. Ross Douthat, one of those partial … Continue reading →
