TEL AVIV – Two articles published in major newspapers this week highlight the ongoing biased media coverage of the wave of Palestinian terror against Israelis, a media watchdog is charging.
The Paris COP21 climate summit has gone better than any of us could have hoped. Which is to say so incredibly badly that the disappointed greenies have begun to turn on one another in bitterness and recrimination and Hunger-Games-like kill-or-be-killed
The UN climate change deal reached last week between nearly 200 countries is a direct attack on U.S. sovereignty. It was crafted explicitly to evade the U.S. Constitution’s requirement that treaties must be ratified by a two-thirds majority of the Senate to take effect.
From The Guardian: See how the tentacles of terror reach out from the screen or the printed page. See how fear moves television ratings or sells newspaper copies. And see the slippery slopes where Donald Trump and Marine Le Pen

A headteacher at an academy school has labelled members of his staff “racist Islamophobes” for not supporting an open doors policy on migration in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks. Writing anonymously, she details how junior staff reported senior

From The Guardian: Isoprene: it’s a gas that helps aerosols form in the atmosphere. It’s relevant to climate change because aerosols help clouds form, which can have cooling (by reflecting sunlight) or warming (by trapping heat) effects, depending on the
While a recent report found only 1.3 percent of around 70,000 Burning Man festival-goers identify as black, its founder Larry Harvey has drawn his own conclusions centered on “historical issues” to explain the lack of diversity.
The Guardian’s editorial from this weekend has claimed that the “bulwark” Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is “awful” for trying to control his country’s borders and maintain some level of control over the migrant crisis. The left-wing British newspaper wrote
The Guardian’s loathing for western civilisation is no secret; it defines the newspaper just as reliance on the British tax payer defines the BBC. But today the rag’s outright contempt for British culture has reached a new low, with a withering attack
The Guardian used their headline spot on the Wednesday on-line edition to unironically highlight the frighteningly racist opinions of London’s ethnic minority youth. Brimming with resentment, racism and class envy, the article published excerpts from a new documentary accompanying a forthcoming immersive
The Guardian has published an horrifically anti-British op-ed by one of its art critics Jonathan Jones, in which he calls the flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland – otherwise known as the Union Flag –

Obesity is an incurable disease says the Guardian’s George Monbiot. No really, he goes on. It’s not only “more addictive than crack cocaine.” But also it’s quite like “cancer.” Gosh, how I love George Monbiot! Is he not such a darling, wonderful
Italian cheese makers are weighing whether or not to take legal action against pornographic video sharing website Pornhub, for comparing its premium video services to their cherished brand of cheese.
One of the Guardian’s house intellectuals – Pankraj Mishra – has written a lengthy apologia for ISIS. Apparently it has very little to do with Islam. It’s more kind of an achingly hip exercise in chin-strokingly cool post-post-modernism. Or something.
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has told of how the U.S. government could topple most others in the world using information from current leaders’ pasts. He also took a swipe at British journalists who he called “gentleman amateurs”, and blasted the
Jessica Valenti has – like a few other women over the course of human history – aged. She doesn’t get wolf whistled at, or catcalled anymore. Boo freaking hoo. The self-styled, “seasoned feminist” is no longer getting builders commenting on
Britain is enjoying a spectacular heatwave and I don’t know about the rest of you but I have been enjoying it immensely. I love the sunshine. I love the way it fries your brain so it feels like you’ve been

Britain’s Guardian newspaper stands accused of sending a “false” copyright notice in an attempt to “bully” a popular online ‘vlogger’ after he parodied their politically-correct content. Satirist, polemicist, and video-blogger Sargon of Akkad hit back at the Guardian after receiving a notice via YouTube that
Turkey’s Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has been drawing fire from Western media over some of his more colorful comments, such as rallying Muslims to take control of Jerusalem. He has finally managed to isolate the source of all that Western media coverage portraying him as anti-Semitic: Jewish money.
The first woman to be raped in space has probably already been born. Far from the utopia we’ve cruelly been duped into expecting by patriarchy-produced propaganda such as Star Trek, it turns out that our future lives on Martian colonies won’t
Five years ago today the Guardian was celebrating one of the most glorious moments in left-wing history since the erection of the Berlin Wall. I refer, of course, to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill – a tragedy which the Guardian

The Guardian has run a piece attacking ExxonMobil for its stubborn, selfish refusal to stop being an oil business. Here’s how the oil giant responded when asked for a quote: “ExxonMobil will not respond to Guardian inquiries because of its
In the nearly two years since John Cook and his colleagues published their ’97 percent’ paper claiming a scientific consensus on climate change, the term ’97 percent’ has become something of a mantra for global warming advocates. President Obama tweeted “Ninety-seven percent of
Suppose Labour leader Ed Miliband had been out yesterday for a quiet bacon sandwich with his wife and kids only to be harassed and terrorised by a bunch of protestors from the Daily Mail. Can you imagine the coverage it
