  They’ve found their voices, 10,000 of them in just seven weeks. In response to the May 30 boycott vote, a campaign was launched by Scholars for Peace in the Middle East, an organization of scholars with more than 18,000 academics and professional members, demanding the boycott be overturned.

  Unbelievable. Why use weapons when you can use eggs… or eggplants? Leftists fire eggs, vegetables at Gaza to protest gov’t helplessness against Qassams By Haaretz Service and Reuters Left-wing activists fired eggs and vegetables at the Gaza Strip on Thursday, to protest against the government’s inability to deal with the

  Poking fun at the NY Times is like shooting fish in a barrel. But sometimes it is the thing to do: …The Times and The Journal have reported extensively about Mr. Murdoch's meddling in his media properties: How he reneged on his promise of editorial independence for the Times of London and how, to curry favor with China's leaders, his

• Your Black Muslim Bakery

  Heard on the radio: SWAT team in Oakland, CA. is surrounding Your Black Muslim Bakery. Don’t know if it is true or not, because I can’t get confirmation from other sources. There was speculation that it might have something to do with this story, from Oakland yesterday, about a reporter who was gunned down in broad daylight. He was,

  I saw this at Little Green Footballs, and that settles any questions about Mitt Romney for me: Romney: Did you notice in Lebanon, what Hezbollah did? Lebanon became a democracy some time ago and while their government was getting underway, Hezbollah went into southern Lebanon and provided health clinics to some of the people there, and

  Apparently, Mitt Romney was filmed making his pro-Hizballah comments by C-span. So, we do have an accurate quote. In remarks caught on camera by C-SPAN, Romney stated, “Did you notice in Lebanon what Hezbollah did? Lebanon became a democracy some time ago, and while their government was getting under way, Hezbollah went into southern

  A weekend chortle provided to us by the nice folks at gardenweb.com. Have you got any idea how high the price of arugula is at Whole Foods Markets these days? Neither do the folks in Iowa: “Anybody gone into Whole Foods lately and see what they charge for arugula? I mean, they're charging a lot of money for this stuff.”

  The Wall Street Journal has an inspiring article today about a charter school in a small town in Arkansas which is producing extremely competent young people. Take a look at this pdf, which is a comparison of how the students at Kipp Delta College Prepatory School compare to their peers in the Helena, Arkansas region and also to students

  The Democrats are “courting liberal bloggers”, promising a wish list of items including a national health care plan. I thought it might be interesting to look at real, hard data on the European experience with national health care. We live in an age of unprecedented medical innovation. Unfortunately, most of today’s

  I saw a message from a disgruntled reader that suggested 2 things: 1. most of US research goes for boob jobs and 2. the Italian writer works for some sort of corporate think tank. I thought I’d respond. Higher cancer survival rates and access to advanced drugs are not the result of research into “boob jobs”. They are the

  They know how to handle them in Iran. That’s for sure. It is early dawn as seven young men are led to the gallows amid shouts of “Allah Akbar” (Allah is the greatest) from a crowd of bearded men as a handful of women, all in hijab, ululate to a high pitch. A few minutes later, the seven are hanged as a mullah shouts:

  Who said this? During the Vietnam War we spread vitriolic stories around the world, pretending that America’s presidents sent Genghis Khan-style barbarian soldiers to Vietnam who raped at random, taped electrical wires to human genitals, cut off limbs, blew up bodies and razed entire villages. Those weren’t facts. They were our

  Tags: Aunt Agatha, Palestine, Religion, Women

  I heard Dennis Prager discussing this on the radio. It is worthwhile to actually go to the link and read it; it is genuinely amazing. A female university professor claims to have been kidnapped in Gaza for several days and forced to convert to Islam, and forced into marriage. Did I mention that she is/was Christian? That’s kinda
