Instead of paraphrasing U.S. government propaganda, the bloggers at National Review link straight to the press release. Bravo! A lesson in integrity for the rest of the White House shills in the blogosphere.
Ali Ismail Abbas, the Iraqi boy who suffered the loss of both arms and much of his family during the glorious liberation of his country, has been fitted with prostheses by a British charity. This is wonderful news, and Ali seems genuinely grateful for the help he has...
Israel is now reported to have submarines equipped with nuclear weapons. As an Israeli, I find it a great relief. Now, even if Israel is completely destroyed, we'll strike back at whoever did it. We may all perish - but not ignominously! In fact, the future is already...

Charlie Wilson's War, a recently published book by George Crile, tells the story of "the largest covert operation in history," the US government's multi-billion (yes, billion with a 'b') dollar secret program to aid the Afghan mujahideen in the '80s. There is some...
Read this Ralph Peters op-ed on Bush getting cozy with the Turks. Judas drove a hard bargain compared to President Bush. At least the great betrayer got 30 pieces of silver. All Bush is going to get for delivering the Kurds unto their enemies will be 10,000 Turkish...
