MICHAEL STRIKES AGAIN: "This probably looks Stalinist to you."
UPDATE: Good grief. Forgot that I didn't point you to this yet. What are you waiting for?

The Tinfoil Apocalypse Comes Into Focus
"This kind of man would have, to put it gently, less inhibition about starting Armageddon than a normal person."

'This raises again the age old-question, why are our mainstream reporters so terrible? Is it malice, or stupidity? As usual, the answer seems to be "both." '

GO TAMMY: "Not only will we not go see films which insult us, we refuse to support an existential worldview. We happen to think life does matters, that decency is a good thing, and that people are inherently good, not bad. We also have stopped believing the lie that Americans are bad people. We looked away for 4 decades as that lie was spread, but that time is over. "
Wretchard On A WaPo Wonder
"It's about breaking the power of the assassins. ... People like the Tuenis who refuse to be intimidated should inspire the rest of us. So should the millions of Iraqis who will vote tomorrow. They are trying to break the culture of intimidation and death. Americans should feel proud to be on their side."
Truly a miracle for the WaPo. And it looks like Lebanon has done it to them. Well, and the fact that even France isn't on Syria's side.
And there's almost zero chance that any of this would have happened without NastyMcShrubby's little Iraq adventure.
No wonder the Gramscian Neo-Syndicalists have become more and more unhinged...

Yes, How Did That Happen Again?
"Somehow, Europeans have managed to transform the atrocities which they committed and which occurred in their countries from a badge of shame (which, arguably, it need not be any longer) into some sort of badge of moral superiority and entitlement to sit in judgment."
UPDATE: What superiority again???
UPDATE: What superiority again???
Being overlawyered is the real torture. And what of boot camp? I predict Amnesty's next glorious cause...

Sowell On Utter Ignorance
"Utter ignorance of history enables any war with any casualties to be depicted in the media as an unmitigated disaster.
Even after Nazi Germany surrendered at the end of World War II, die-hard Nazi guerrilla units terrorized and assassinated both German officials and German civilians who cooperated with Allied occupation authorities.
But nobody suggested that we abandon the country. Nobody was foolish enough to think that you could say in advance when you would pull out or that you should encourage your enemies by announcing a timetable.
There has never been the slightest doubt that we would begin pulling troops out of Iraq when it was feasible. Only time and circumstances can tell when that will be. And only irresponsible politicians and the media think otherwise."
And for once I can say that Sowell -- while still doing a wonderful job -- has missed the most amazing piece of ignorance of all. Doubling the peacetime military death rate. Yup. That's just got to be unsustainable all right. Gramsci is giggling and Orwell is spinning.

READ THE PROSECUTOR'S REBUTTAL: "If we somehow manage to catch the "three-striker" and place him on trial, it will be in his best interest to sabatoge his own trial by killling witnesses, jurors, prosecutors or judges."
