1. Haven't We Already Seen This Movie? And that movie did not end well - in fact it hasn't ended.
And what the heck is the UK going to do? What severe consequences will they visit upon Iran? Especially after the meek way the capture of those 15 Royal Navy sailors a few years ago? Too many years of being soft and permitting radical Islamicists to ruin the UK from within have left the UK, and all of Western Europe, basically indefensible against this act of war. Maybe they should ask the Israelis for some assistance.





3. Egypt - better grab on to something solid and hang on - should be a very interesting ride.

5. You Don't Say? Now won't this cause the left wing feminist types a dilemma? Freedoms at Risk: Arab Women Fight to Defend their Rights - SPIEGEL ONLINE - News - International

"The Arab Spring should liberate people not only from oppressive rulers, but also from self-destructive and delusional patterns of belief. Anti-Semitism, the “socialism of fools,” not only threatens the Israel-Egypt peace treaty and dehumanizes Jews. It also undermines rationality. It prevents its adherents from seeing the world as it is -- and it will only be an impediment to actual change in the Arab world."


9. The Words Of A Liberal For Israel - this guy seems to have his head on correctly:

"On the last night of my Israel trip, I glanced out my restaurant's window and snapped the picture above. A gay pride flag flew undisturbed in a busy section of commerce in downtown Jerusalem.

Among Israel's neighbors, such an act could incite violence. In many areas of our own country, it might provoke outrage.

But in Israel, it's just an ordinary street scene: a mundane -- yet sublime -- statement of freedom within a broadly diverse, tolerant, and open culture.

With all of its flaws, the Zionist experiment has emerged -- quietly and vibrantly -- as a clear demonstration of the power of progressive values.

Feel free to criticize to Israel when it is wrong. But let's not fail to celebrate it when it is right. Because whenever liberal values flourish, they deserve our applause."



11. Now This Is A Rant - Pat Condell is not happy.



13. Reality Bites - New vs. Real

"In October 2011, Marwan Muasher, a vice president at the Carnegie Endowment and former deputy prime minister of Jordan, and Muhammad Faour, a senior associate at the Carnegie Mideast Center, served a wake-up call to New Middle Easterners: "People in the Arab world will discover that their societies are not equipped with the skills and values needed to accept different, pluralistic norms of behavior ... Any romantic notions in the West that the 2011 Arab uprisings could create instantaneous democracy, in countries that have succeeded at toppling their leaders, are already shattering ... Democracy will thrive only in a culture that accepts diversity, respects different points of view, regards truths as relative rather than absolute, and tolerates — even encourages — dissent."




16. Do You Know Day What Today Is? Pick one of the following:

November 29th is the annual marking of which of the following - see if you can guess:
  • Administrative Assistant's Day....
  • Grandparent's Day....
  • International Tolerance Day....
  • Groundhog Day.....
  • International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People...
  • World Poetry Day....

Was the answer too obvious?

The UN’s International Day of Solidarity Against the Jews | FrontPage Magazine

"In other words, every November 29th, the United Nations publicly mourns the passage of its own peaceful solution to the Arab-Jewish dispute, which had called for the establishment of an independent Arab state and independent Jewish state. Every year the UN commiserates over the adoption by the General Assembly of the 1947 partition resolution under which the Palestinians could have been living in their own independent state for the last sixty-four years if the Arabs had only accepted it. Even Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has conceded that the Arabs’ rejection of the partition resolution was a big mistake, but the day of mourning and grief over the Palestinians’ self-inflicted wounds go on anyway at the United Nations."

18. Great Catch - My Dolphins lost a last minute heartbreaker on Thanksgiving Day in Dallas - but they deserve an A for effort (yes - I know that effort starts with an "e") - as exemplified by this unbelievable catch by wideout Brandon Marshall - make sure to watch the replay.
