Mark Steyn is 100% correct on this one - "Pearl was decapitated on video by jihadist Muslims in Karachi on Feb. 1, 2002." I think that is as concise and accurate as that terrible event can be described.
2. The Iranian Mullah-ocracy - These guys continue to spiral out of control - and maybe even their Arab neighbors are getting the message - Pajamas Media » The Israeli-Arab Alliance Against Iran - but is it too late?
3. Mr. Sulu - Set "Dither" Speed to High - Charles Krauthammer on the latest Iranian moves and the lack of American response. See also - UN powers back new Iran sanctions.
4. Speaking Of Which... - Pajamas Media » Obama, the Sinking of the Cheonan, and the Failure of Nuclear Deterrence
5. Nasrallah the Denier - Nasrallah questions Shoah - Israel News, Ynetnews - meanwhile this cowardly little rat won't be seen in public for fear of getting a case of Israeli lead poisoning. In any event, this will no doubt increase his stock with the usual bunch of cockroaches that deny the Shoah.
6. Resume? When Did It Stop? - Fatah may resume ‘armed struggle' - for support, see: PA TV: All Israel is "Palestine" - Jihad Watch
7. Journalists Die In Israel - check that - it's Honduras - Honduran journalists ‘living in terror’: Seven killed since March 1 Posted National Post - how come this attracts no attention? But if a (leftist) journalist in Israel gets so much as a hangnail - watch out!

13. Brave Souls Indeed!! - SEIU Storms Private Residence, Terrorizes Teenage Son of Bank of America Exec - Big Government - order up an extra large load of hero cookies for these 14 busloads of protesters. From a fair trade cookie store, of course. (Their logo says "Stronger Together" - sure, when they intimidate a teenager)

15. The Hell With Elvis Costello - Having just consigned my Elvis Costello collection to the dustbin of history - if Israel is not good enough for him, he's not good enough for me - I may now have to grab some of my son's Metallica albums - Battling On. Here is an article about Elvis and his boycott - Reality Check: About these boycotts. It will be interesting to see what Costello's wife, Canadian jazz pianist Diana Krall, will do - she is scheduled to appear in Ra'anana later this summer.
It will be extremely interesting to see what Sir Elton John decides to do about his concerts - after all, Israel is the only place in the Middle East where there are meaningful gay rights. Oh - and Carlos Santana can kiss my ass - Will Elton John Bow to Anti-Israel Pressure? Santana Gives in to Terrorists
16. Comedy Central Can Kiss My Ass As Well - Very recently, an episode of South Park containing a portrayal of the Prophet Mohammed was censored after Islamic extremists issued threats. That did not stop the very same network from posting a game on its website called "I.S.R.A.E.L. Attack" - see "You Lied to Me, Jew Producer": Comedy Central Shocker for the whole sordid story. Am I missing something, or is this hypocrisy spelled out in great big bold letters?
17. Tradition - I do not post as many things about Judaism as I probably should - but here's a good read - A Nation of Commentators - by Adam Kirsch > Tablet Magazine - A New Read on Jewish Life
18. Things Are Tough - As I post this, my beloved Habs are some 7 minutes away from playoff elimination. If they do lose, it will be after having put on an amazing playoff run - made even better by the sight of my good friend, Maritime Morning host Andrew Krystal, having to walk down Spring Garden Road in Halifax wearing nothing but a Habs jersey and shorts, and accompanied by a Dixie-land Marching Band after having lost a bet against the Habs. And so, in the same way that Andrew was a good sport, I will congratulate the Philadelphia Flyers on their victory (but I'm hoping for Chicago in the Finals!!).
