1. Don't Let me Be Misunderstood - Slaughter the Jews call 'misunderstood'. Yeah. Right. Kindergarten kids come up with better excuses. But don't worry - it's the UK - you'll probably get a gentle rub on your knuckles, if anything at all - I mean - look at your comrades At UCI - Salam Al Marayati: Free 11 Muslim Students Representing America's Conscience.

Note that Mr. Al Marayati, the Executive Director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council - DC had the unmitigated gall to state:

"One may disagree with the style and tactics demonstrated by the 11 students, but the central issue is not responding to the disruption by the students. Rather, the main focus should be on understanding what led to that action. The protest of Ambassador Oren's speech did not occur within a vacuum, but rather as a reaction to a string of numerous attempts to stigmatize Muslim students of UCI and squelch their free speech."

He also went on to complain about institutional harassment of Muslim students "as they engage in campus activism". Spare me. Ever been to York? When, if ever, was the last time you heard of pro-Israel activists interrupting a pro-Palestinian or pro-Arab speaker, let alone physically assaulting them? When, if ever, did you hear of a Jewish student trying to kill his fellow university students?

What a bunch of disingenuous crap.

2. There's No Fatwa Like An Old Fatwa - Rushdie death fatwa turns 21 - Jihad Watch

4. Stunner Of The Day - Corruption in the PA

5. Peace, Love & Understanding - Islamists want to prohibit non-Muslims from referring to God as Allah. - By Christopher Hitchens - Slate Magazine - complicated by the fact that in the Malay language, the word for G-d is "Allah".

6. Calling It Like It Is - Allen West Knows Jihad—The Enemy Ideology

7. Syria - Syria must be a top priority

8. Oh Yeah - Iran -

9. Provocative Piece - Bruce Anderson: We not only have a right to use torture. We have a duty - Bruce Anderson, Commentators - The Independent

10. They Know The Subject Well - If Hamas, Syria and Iran know anything, it's murder - Hamas probing Dubai murder with help of Iran and Syria - Haaretz - Israel News

11. Great Song From The Olympics Opening Ceremony - I was quite moved by k d lang's version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" - there does not seem to be a good video version of Friday night's performance available on the net - so here is her singing the song in 2004 - man, can she sing!

12. More Trouble For Toyota? Do they even make lawn mowers?

Heh Jean Chretien, our former illustrious Prime Minister said pretty much the same as Marayati "we must look at the mitigating circumstances and the frustration of Muslims"in response to 911. A-i-y-e-e!!! We in the West enable these miscreants by allowing leaders like that to respond in an insurrectionist manner. A.S.
