PAM MEISTER: POLITICIZING A TRAGEDY

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/aurora-colorado-politicizing-a-tragedy The horrific attack by (alleged) gunman James Holmes at an Aurora, Colorado movie theater last week was naturally big news – and naturally, media outlets rushed to cover the tragedy as it unfolded. As of this writing, 12 people are dead, including several children, and 59 were wounded, many in critical condition. Most Americans […]

http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/2189/Forty-Five-Percent.aspx From YouGov polling: Polling conducted last week suggests that whatever remaining effect of the release of the birth certificate that persisted through January is completely gone today. From June 30-July 2, 2012, YouGov surveyed 1000 Americans and asked whether “Barack Obama was born in the United States of America.” In the table below, I […]

ANDREW BOSTOM: HUMA ABEDIN’ S MOTHER AND THE MOSLEM SISTERHOOD

http://www.andrewbostom.org/blog/2012/07/22/saleha-abedin-and-the-muslim-sisterhood/ Saleha Mahmood Abedin is intimately associated with Muslim educational, cultural, and charitable organizations that represent dangerous simulacra of their Western counterparts, and are designed to promulgate liberty-crushing Sharia supremacism, not free, objective inquiry, genuine respect for cultural differences, or even unfettered charity for the needy, regardless of creed. The extent of Dr. Abedin’s influence […]

France’s Shame: Rita Kramer

http://www.mideastoutpost.com/archives/frances-shame-rita-kramer.html

We gather this morning to recall the horror of a crime, expressing the grief of those who lived through the tragedy, evoking the dark hours of collaboration, our history, and therefore the responsibility of France.
We are here also to transmit the memory of the Shoah, which the raids were the first step, to lead the fight against oblivion, to testify to the new generations of barbarism that is capable of doing and what humanity may itself contain resources to defeat it.

70 years ago, July 16, 1942, at dawn, 13,152 men, women and children were arrested at their homes. Childless couples and singles were interned in Drancy, where the fall will amount to the museum created by the Shoah Memorial.

Others were taken to the Velodrome d’Hiver. Crammed for five days in inhumane conditions, they were transferred from there to the camps of Pithiviers and Beaune-la-Rolande.

Clear direction was given by the Vichy administration: “Children should not be dispatched in the same convoy as the parents.” So, after agonizing separations that parents on one side, the other children, went to Auschwitz-Birkenau where deported from Drancy had preceded them a few days.

They were murdered. Simply because they were Jews.

This crime took place here in our city, our streets, in our current building, in our stairwells, in our school yards.

Understanding the Situation in Syria by Aymenn Jawad Al-Tamimi and Oskar Svadkovsky

http://www.meforum.org/3288/syria-minorities It’s become an article of faith among policy makers and analysts in the West that Syria is a nation of minorities. Various sources put the share of non-Sunni Muslim minorities at around one quarter of the population. These minorities are believed to constitute the bulk of the support base of the Syrian regime. Some […]

ROBERT SPENCER: MICHELLE BACHMANN IS RIGHT ABOUT REP. KEITH ELLISON

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/robert-spencer/why-michele-bachmann-is-right-about-keith-ellison/ Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has accused Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN) of having a “long record of being associated” with the Hamas-linked Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Brotherhood. Evoking the days of McCarthyism, a common charge being leveled at Bachmann these days, Ellison responded: “I am not now, nor have I ever […]

PETER MARTINO: GERMANY’S DEBATE OVER MALE CIRCUMCISION

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3187/germany-circumcision In violation of their Hippocratic Oath to do no harm, doctors are interpreting a medical practice in purely religious terms — choosing religion over science. During the past decade, life has become more difficult for Jews in Europe. They are not only the victims of a rise in anti-Semitic violence and intimidation, mostly as […]
