NYT Fires Back at Bloomberg: 'Absurd'

On Tuesday afternoon, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg called the New York Times racist for their failure to cover the killing of Alphonza Bryant, a 17-year-old black teenager shot in the Bronx. “"There was not even a mention of his murder in our paper of record, the New York Times,” said Bloomberg. "'All the news that's fit to print' did not include the murder of 17-year-old Alphonza Bryant. Do you think that if a white, 17-year-old prep student from Manhattan had been murdered, the Times would have ignored it? Me neither. I believe that the life of every 17-year-old and every child and every adult is precious." 30 Apr 2013

European Muslims Traveling to Syria to Fight 'Holy War'

With America battling the threat of Islamist terrorism from within, Europe is experiencing a dangerous phenomenon of its own: exporting of Islamism from Europe to the Middle East. According to the Associated Press, European mayors are now attempting to limit the travel of their citizens to Syria to fight “holy war” against the Assad regime in Syria.
