My first novel, Exchange Alley, is now up on Kindle and can be yours for the special introductory price of just 99 cents. Such a deal — especially when used paperback copies are being offered on Amazon for up to

Albert Memmi The unaddressed questions (from November, 1973) of Albert Memmi still address the unworthiness [2] of Libya ** The most predictable outcome of Libya’s violent internecine struggle-cum-latest-Arab- “democracy movement” was aptly characterized by Andrew McCarthy [3]: “The Libyan people
Thanks to decades of reckless spending by European welfare states, the newspapers are filled with headlines about debt, default, contagion, and bankruptcy. We know that Greece and Ireland already have received direct bailouts, and other European welfare states are getting
One of our Slovak readers, who prefers to remain anonymous, sends a translation about recent events in his country’s capital, along with this introductory note: Last week a rally in support of the persecuted Christians took place in Bratislava. Your
Amanda Knox won an important victory in her appeals trial of her murder conviction in Italy on Saturday, when a court ruled that it will allow an independent review of crucial DNA evidence.
Until Saving Private Ryan, the 1963 film The Victors was what I considered the best war movie ever. Although some have pegged this as an anti-war film, I believe it is more descriptive of a movie that proves that war
That’s the implicit message in a new article published in Germany’s Der Spiegel. Looking at the dynamics behind China General Secretary Hu Jintao’s visit to Europe, the author is blunt (and accurate): “China is seizing on Europe’s debt problems to
Today, in 1941, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States. It wasn’t one of their better decisions.
Originally, I wrote that using “terrorist” to describe Julian Assange was hyperbole. Of course, this was before he double-downed. After this stunt, it’s difficult to argue that he’s not behaving like a terrorist: The founder of WikiLeaks has warned that
Last week (see Ireland Bailout Fails to Calm Markets), we showed you graphs of bond yields (interest rates) for four of the PIIGS countries — Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain. Now, here are the graphs for Italy and Belgium: 10-year
First, I’ll say right out of the gate that I think the term “terrorist” applied to Julian Assange is a bit much. Jerkwad scavenger, yes. Analogous to generations of terror and murder for a faith that believes it’s OK to
The U.S. Federal Reserve was brutally criticized last week for initiating Quantitative Easing II (QE II) – a new $600 billion dollar scheme to inflate the money supply and stimulate the economy. Was Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke’s already aware that
The hits keep on coming from a train wreck of a presidency. I just got my healthcare renewal form. My rates are up over 30% across the board, and that’s with a $5,700 deductible. This is the fruit of Barack
A private plane chartered to an Italy-based oil company crashed near the airport in Pakistan’s largest city on Friday after the pilot warned of engine trouble, officials said. All 21 people onboard, including an Italian, were killed.
Part 10 of a serialization of Shariah – The Threat to America, the report of Team B II of the Center for Security Policy. Before we look at the Muslim Brotherhood’s infiltration of the United States, we’ll study its penetration
Part 11 of a serialization of Shariah – The Threat to America, the report of Team B II of the Center for Security Policy. This is a continuation of Part 10, concerning the Muslim Brotherhood’s penetration of Europe, setting the
Few fiscal-policy terms these days seem as elastic as the word “subsidy.” In a strict sense, it means a direct payment from government (i.e., taxpayers) to influence economic behavior. So it was with great interest that I read Robert H.
Today, in 1938, Britain, France, Italy and Germany signed the “Munich Agreement,” allowing Germany to annex the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia. Later that same day, the League of Nations passed a measure to outlaw the “intentional bombing of civilians.”
Obama administration policies have caused “irreperable harm” to the Gulf Coast economy, stifling the energy sector and culling employment within it to a degree previously underestimated by the administration itself. That is the conclusion drawn by Louisiana State University economics
Because many of us who write for Big Hollywood spend the majority of our time pointing out the hypocrisy and liberal bias of leftists in Hollywood, it is oh-so-pleasant to be able to write a post which draws attention to
Today marks Constitution Day. On 17 September 1787, in Philadelphia, the Framers of the American Constitution added their signatures to the document they had produced, and soon thereafter it was dispatched to the Continental Congress for consideration by the states.
So I guess their radicals, beat our radicals. Think about it… President Obama starts pleading with that nutty Florida minister to knock off his idiotic plan to burn Korans. Obama said the act would incite terrorists “to blow themselves up.”
