‘The Nation’ of Tyranny Lovers Posted By Daniel Greenfield

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/the-nation-of-tyranny-lovers/print/ In 1951, Chinese and North Korean forces had captured a charred Seoul, the atom bomb spies were sentenced to death and Clement Greenberg was the leading art critic in America. As The Nation’s art editor, Greenberg had helped put American art on the map. And as the war with Nazi Germany gave way to […]

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/frontpagemag-com/why-obama-needs-another-dictator-to-replace-chavez-on-the-glazov-gang/

This week’s Glazov Gang had the honor of being joined by Bob Zeidman, award-winning novelist, Larry Greenfield, Senior Fellow at the American Freedom Alliance and Howard Hyde, author of the new pamphlet, Pull the Plug on Obamacare. The Gang members discussed Hyde’s pamphlet and whether it is too late to resist Obama’s health care plan. The dialogue occurred in Part II and also included an analysis of Obama’s Billion-Dollar Giveaway to the Muslim Brotherhood. Part I, meanwhile, focused on Why Hollywood Cried When Hugo Died and highlighted the Left’s love affair with enemy tyrants. To watch both parts of the two part series, see below:

Israeli Chief of Staff: Syria ‘Could Blow Up at Any Moment’ By P. David Hornik

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/davidhornik/israeli-chief-of-staff-syria-could-blow-up-at-any-moment/print/ One doesn’t know what to make of murky reports this week about the U.S., Britain, and France training a small force of purportedly moderate Syrian rebels in Jordan—especially with the Obama administration taking the official line that it does not directly aid the Syrian opposition. If there was ever a time to build a […]

Lawless Left Targets Pennsylvania Voter ID Laws By Paul Gottfried

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/paul-gottfried/lawless-left-targets-pennsylvania-voter-id-laws/print/ Readers of Pennsylvania newspapers have been told (by now repeatedly) that the state attorney general, Kathleen Kane, cannot bring herself to enforce the state voter identification law that the legislature passed last year. This PA law is nothing out of the ordinary. Similar laws have already been approved and enforced in fifteen other states. […]

HERBERT LONDON: CIVILIZATIONAL DISCONTENTS

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/civilizational-discontents The barrier between barbarism and civilization is gossamer-thin, a layer of taboos that separates mankind from its base nature. An impulse to ascend is most often pushed into the armory of descent. Nowhere was this more apparent than the recent Grammy Awards for musical “excellence.” Here were the half literate providing referential status to […]

HUMAN RIGHTS GROUP IN TURKEY DEMANDS MALE BROTHELS

http://tundratabloids.com/2013/03/human-rights-group-demands-male-brothel-in-turkey.html

The Turkish anti-poverty association, ŞEFKAT-DER, filed a petition to Parliament on March 8 asking for permission to open a brothel for women that would employ males in protest of brothels where women are employed, daily Hürriyet reported yesterday. “If you cannot save women from the slavery [of brothels], then open a brothel where men are employed,” said the petition, which was also sent to the Interior Ministry and Family and Social Policies Ministry.

ŞEFKAT-DER’s head Hayrettin Bulan said they will hold a protest in Istanbul’s Taksim Square on March 17 to demand a brothel employing men.

Bulan said they were told that men need access to brothels at all time. “If men have needs, women have needs too. If they see places where women are slaves for the men, then the places where men will work for the women should be opened too,” Bulan said.

Military Chaplain Jon Trainer Receives Bronze Star for “Effective Muslim Sensitivity Training” (!!!!???)by Andrew McGinn

http://www.answeringmuslims.com/2013/03/military-chaplain-jon-trainer-receives.html

Yes, the military is now awarding medals to servicemen who pander to Muslim sensitivities. So if you’re in the military and you’d like a prestigious Bronze Star, just encourage your fellow soldiers to submit to Sharia.

SPRINGFIELD —After the accidental burning last year of Qurans by U.S. troops in Afghanistan sparked deadly rioting, an Air National Guard chaplain from Springfield stepped in and potentially saved countless American lives.

For his effort, Lt. Col. Jon Trainer received the prestigious Bronze Star — a medal given for heroic or meritorious achievement in connection with operations against an armed enemy.

And he did it with a PowerPoint presentation.

Trainer, who’s now in the running to be named Chaplain of the Year for the entire Air Guard, was in the third month of his voluntary deployment to Afghanistan last February when U.S. troops at Bagram Airfield mistakenly burned copies of the Muslim holy book.

The ensuing outrage claimed more than 30 lives, including two U.S. troops and two U.S. military advisers.

Within 48 hours, Trainer developed a PowerPoint presentation on the proper handling and disposal of Islamic religious material that was seen by every American — military and civilian alike — in Afghanistan. The presentation then was distributed to the U.S. for use in all pre-deployment training.
