Will Egypt's New Freedom Force More Women Under a Veil of Brutality?

Phyllis Chesler   "According to Amina Afzali, a member of a new government commission,"there [are] cases where women needed protection but [she] was upset about the shelters' high profile in discussing abuse." Afzali found it "grating" that Time magazine featured child bride Bibi Aisha on its cover; her husband had hacked off her nose after she tried to run away from home. Such publicity "humiliates us in the eyes of the world.""

Fantastic reading: George Soros, Nazi Obsessive

Pajamas Media   "You see, while George W. Bush had not even yet been born in 1945, when real Nazis were perpetrating the real Holocaust, George Soros, as a teenager, was actually helping real Nazis confiscate the real property of real, about-to-be-“exterminated” Jews in his native Budapest, Hungary.
"And no, this actual Nazi collaboration by a young George Soros was not an obscure tidbit dug up by opposition researchers. George Soros freely admitted his actions in the now-infamous Steve Kroft interview of 1998.
....
"When Jews are being “deported” to death camps, Soros says, I am “above them.” What’s that to him? If “I was not doing it, then someone else would be doing it.” "Kyle-Anne Shiver

How to Think About the Tea Party

Regnery
Commentary  "In the weeks that followed, ordinary citizens spontaneously gathered in towns and cities across the continent to organize Tea Parties in protest against what they took to be an unjust redistribution of wealth from the industrious and the rational to the greedy and improvident. The mainstream media treated them with contempt, and most Republicans kept their distance. Leading Democrats denounced them as frauds and ignoramuses and sought to brand them as racists. Even when the president of the United States used the obscene epithet “teabaggers” to refer to them, however, the adherents of what was coming to be a full-fledged movement—the Tea Party movement—stood firm."

The New World Order At NASA

Always On Watch  "What is with this government? Every day there is another slur on American Culture, American Values. This time the agency is NASA. Instead of naming a new rocket after an American Hero or a victim of the 9/11 attacks, they have decided to name the rocket after an Egyptian...Woman killed in the riots."....
"If NASA wants to honor a foreign hero they could honor Ilan Ramon (Israel) who died on the Columbia.
"Or NASA could honor the 2,998 victims of 9/11. They could put all the names in a box and pull out one."

McConnell says Obama agenda is `over'

Yahoo News  While Republicans remain in the minority in the Senate, McConnell said Democratic senators facing re-election next year have a political motivation to join GOP lawmakers in pushing for spending cuts.
"We'll see how many of them come over and join us and begin to tackle our annual deficit," he said.
McConnell said the national debt has grown rapidly with the stimulus spending under Obama, and yet national unemployment remains stubbornly high.
McConnell warned that cutting federal spending won't come without some pain.
"Everybody is going to have to do with less if we're going to get this job done," he said. "And we need to get it done."

The Ground Zero Mosque Event at CPAC

Atlas Shrugs  "Joyce Boland introduced us to her son Vince, who was working at Marsh and McLennan on the 97th floor of Tower 1 when the jihadis crashed into that exact spot. She said that she frequently visited Ground Zero, as any grieving mother would visit the gravesite of her son, and felt his spirit there.
"Nelly Braginsky spoke of her son Alex, and of how the years had not dulled the pain of his loss, but had made it even sharper -- and of how the Ground Zero Mosque would only compound this pain. Sally Regenhard, the mother of another fallen firefighter, Christian Regenhard, described her experiences being interviewed by PBS's "Religion and Ethics Newsweekly," whom she told: "Our loved ones’ blood really consecrated that site forever and ever," and "You can never change hearts and minds by shoving your culture or religion down the throats of others." "

The Left and Their 'Good Victims'

Robin of Berkeley  "A number of years ago, I was the victim of a brutal street crime. Although I was left with a broken nose and two black eyes, I learned soon thereafter that I wasn't a "good victim."
"A progressive friend, Fran, clued me in. When I told her what happened, she said, "What you went through wasn't half as bad as what he has suffered." Fran was referring to the fact that I am white and the assailant was black. In other words, my suffering didn't matter."



Saudi king conducts stormy phone call to Obama

Shawarma Mayor  "Saudi king conducts stormy phone call to Obama. Obama is a petulant child intent on demolishing sand castles. The biggest problem is that these are not made of sand - it's the somewhat peaceful world order we live in.
"To be clear, this is an international diplomatic crisis, with ramification to the energy markets, observe the following quote:"
The revelation of Saudi concerns sheds new light on America's apparent diplomatic paralysis and lays bare the biggest rift between the nations since the oil price shock of 1973.

Obama in the foreign press

Islam Is Taking Over the Middle East under Obama  "America has abandoned its role as the global policing force and has, in effect, made it possible for radical Islam to spill over into new territory. Tzvika Fogel cautions us to be skeptical of the illusion of a democratic revolution in the Arabic world."
 Tzvika Fogel, Israel

Barack Obama is not Jimmy Carter  "But there is no Egyptian Lech Walesa or an Iraqi Vaclav Havel - not to mention the enormous pro-American sentiments that were shared by the Eastern Europeans who had been ruled by the Soviets, and that are nonexistent in Egypt and much of the Arab world today. That means that Obama has his work cut out for him in the Middle East. Israelis who hope to maintain some modicum of U.S. influence in the region should wish him luck. He is no Carter. And no Reagan is waiting in the wings."
Haaretz

Op-ed: President Barack Obama has good intentions, but reality keeps on getting in the way
"Obama wants democracy in Egypt; he wishes to promote human rights and improve the status of women. This is a noble notion, yet democracy means Muslim Brotherhood, radicalism, and Iran-style human rights. Indeed, there is nothing wrong with dreamers like Obama, but not in this profession." ynet news

Uncertain future for US policy after Egyptian revolution "For many people in Egypt, they were years of oppression, corruption and poverty; but for the U.S., Mubarak was an anchor of stability at the helm of the world's largest Arab nation, enforcing a peace treaty with Israel and protecting vital U.S. interests, including passage for oil through the Suez Canal."  Ahram online

The U.S. president is confident that radical Islamic organizations will not get hold of power. "The U.S. president parried a question about whether Hosni Mubarak, after stepping down, would make public details of secret deals between the Egyptian and American governments. The secret deals include an agreement to release people suspected of terrorist activity and American intelligence-oriented operations in the territory of Egypt."  Kirill Belyaninov,  Kommersant, Russia
