In McLaughlin Group alumni news, Pat Buchanan sticks up for Gen. Boykin on rather dubious "takes fire to fight fire" grounds. Eerily similar to last Wednesday's townhall.com essay by Tony Blankley, right down to the word "splendid." Some sort of Halloween prank brewing?
Galloway Villain of the Week?

Where Will David Horowitz Get His News Now?
Israeli settler radio station Arutz Sheva is off the air, convicted of broadcasting without a license. This may pose a problem for Frontpagemag.com and National Review, who treat the wildly militaristic channel as the journal of record for the Middle East: How to...
Speaking of Glenn Reynolds, Mass Murder, and Gifts…
The Instapundit might enjoy this cool photo book of smoldering Germans. There are no innocents where America drops bombs, eh Glenn?
