I think the Reverend Wright/Barack Obama episode has become potentially a full-blown book for some sort of left thought control analyst. It's become a really significant Orwellian episode. I don't have the time but I'm not kidding - somebody could...

There's something really wrong with Obama's instantly hailed March 18th Race/Reverend Wright speech and it isn't getting enough attention. I'm talking about the way-too easy way he got away with discussing the racism that produces black American a...

I thought it would be fun to inaugurate my blog with a list of the best films of 2007. These are not all new films, just films that I saw in 2007. Some of these films are political, others just inspired me.

Imagine that George Bush Senior was heard to say this about why the Jewish-American vote went a certain way in a New York City mayoral election: “well, that doesn't surprise me because I know how Jews think.” Imagine that Jimmy Carter was o...

Sticking closely to the theme of my last entry "An Experiment in Anti-Semitism vs. Anti-Arab Racism", here is yet another incidence of a leading Israeli rabbi inciting ethnic hatred against Arabs. In this case it was the head rabbi in the city of ...

Imagine if an Arab spiritual leader referred to Jews as "foul", a "disease" or as a "devil". What if he called them "asses" and asked "why did God not create them walking on their fours?" In reply to his own rhetorical question, the imaginary Arab...
