A little bust of Churchill keeps the Obama’s away from Prince William’s wedding

coachisright  "Now other reasons for the Obamas non invitation include: “Queen Elizabeth vehemently disapproves of the President’s pushy wife” who has a habit of making ostentatious shows of wealth and position overseas. Some sort of rather embarrassing kerfuffle is alleged to have happened when Michelle had her Cleopatra moment in the sun at the court of Spain’s King Juan Carlos last August at great expense to America’s suffering taxpayers. “The Queen’s a frugal woman who believes it’s tasteless to flaunt wealth and position when ordinary folks are suffering from the recession,” says the GLOBE.
"Another take
"I can think of another reason why the Obamas will not be going to the Prince William nuptials. My mother was born in England, so I like to think I know the British character."

“Iran Prepares for War, Buttresses Its New Domain With Military Steel”

Soundthetrumpet  from DEBKAfile  "The only Western statesman advocating a tough hand with Iran is former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.(Friday, January 21, he said in London: “I say this to you with all the passion I possibly can – At some point the West has got to get out of what I think is a wretched policy… [towards Iran], or posture of apology for believing that we are causing what the Iranians are doing (the nuclear plan… They’ll carry on doing it unless they are met by the requisite determination and, if necessary, force.”)"


Democrats: Emboldening America's Enemies and Terrifying Her Allies Since 1976

Ann Coulter  "Why did they want to keep Saddam Hussein in power again? Yes, that's right -- because he didn't have stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction. Their big argument was that Saddam was five long years away from developing them.
"By my calculations, that means as of March 2008, Israel would have been gone and Saddam would have been in total control of the Middle East.
"Thanks, liberals!"



Arguing for What Was Previously Self-Evident

Commentary   "Here is how self-evident Israel’s legitimacy as a Jewish state once was: the 1947 UN Resolution endorsing the partition of Palestine mentioned the term “Jewish state” no fewer than 30 times. More than 63 years later, even the “peace partner” is willing only to let Israel call itself whatever it wants but not to recognize its legitimacy as a Jewish state — not even as part of a “peace agreement” that would give its own people a state."

Why didn’t NYU fire Nir Rosen over Lara Logan?

Rosen
Washington Post "Rosen’s tweets on Logan more than crossed a line. They were more than cruel and insensitive. They revealed a perverted view of the world that has no place at any university, much less a prestigious one. Differences of opinion -- even extreme ones -- are one thing, welcome at an educational institution. Misogyny and distortions of reality are quite another."




Lara Logan was Repeatedly Raped by Egyptian Mob Yelling, "Jew, Jew! Jew!"

Atlas Shrugs  "But after she was assaulted, Logan went back to her hotel, and within two hours -- sometime late Friday and into early Saturday -- was flown out of Cairo on a chartered network jet, sources said.
"She wasn't taken to a hospital in Egypt because the network didn't trust local security there, sources said.
"And neither CBS nor Logan reported the crime to Egyptian authorities because they felt they couldn't trust them, either, the sources said. "The way things are there now, they would have ended up arresting her again," one source said."

We No Longer Need To Ask "What Did Obama Know About Egypt And When Did He Know It"

Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion "I have posted before about how "[t]he administration's complete obsession with Obamacare" manifested itself in a "neglect and disregard" of the troubles brewing in the Middle East.
"Now we have confirmation that there were explicit warnings to the Obama administration about the likelihood of trouble in Egypt, as reported by The Wall Street Journal:"


Well, OK then: Jimmy Carter not concerned about Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood

David Paulin  This should help us all breathe a sigh of relief.

Rebellion Seethes in Gulf

Wall Street Journal  "If Bahrain's Sunni-led government were to be forced from power—something protesters haven't yet made a focus of their demands—some fear a new government might seek closer ties to Iran and force the U.S. Navy to relocate. Another concern is that an uprising in Bahrain could spill into next-door Saudi Arabia or Kuwait, where even minor unrest might roil world-wide oil markets."
