Geert Wilders Speech in Berlin – September 3, 2011
Thank you for inviting me to Berlin. It is an honour to be here in this beautiful city of Berlin. When I was here last year I emphasized how important Germany is for all of us. We all benefit from a healthy, democratic, self-confident Germany. Much has happened since my last visit. In the Netherlands […]
Letter of the Month from HonestReporting
While we encourage you to write letters in response to some of the worst instances of anti-Israel media bias, it’s also equally important to write in support of articles or op-eds that are supportive of Israel. That’s why, this month, we have chosen Sidney Kessler of Richmond, VA who wrote in response to a pro-Israel […]
Al Qaeda Declares Victory in Libya; Plants Its Flag on Top of Courthouse
It was here at the courthouse in Benghazi where the first spark of the Libyan revolution ignited. It’s the symbolic seat of the revolution; post-Gaddafi Libya’s equivalent of Egypt’s Tahrir Square. And it was here, in the tumultuous months of civil war, that the ragtag rebel forces established their provisional government and primitive, yet effective, […]
Swiss Member of Parliament Has Had Enough of Islamism!
Excellent speech by Swiss member of Parliament Oskar Freysinger said with passion and truth that no politician in Washington is yet ready to speak from the floor of Congress.

‘Occupy Wall Street’ a Blight on Main Street
“Occupy Wall Street” protesters claim to be fighting for the disenfranchised members of Main Street America. But their protests are exacting a significant toll on businesses in the cities where they have set up camp. Oakland has been hit hardest. A week after “Occupy” protesters there rioted, vandalizing local businesses and clashing with police, city merchants say […]
Austerity Successes in Previous Downturns
The left continues to resist any suggestion of spending cuts right now. In their view, a depressed economy is no time to slash spending; that would only further weaken demand. The successful austerity policies adopted in response to the downturn of 1920, however, offer a clear rebuttal to this notion. And this is not an […]
It All Started When Israel Fired Back… Again!
Haven’t we been here before? Palestinian terrorists launch or attempt to launch rockets from Gaza on to Israeli towns and cities and Israel responds. So who is ultimately responsible? And which side is engaged in aggressive acts and which is carrying out defensive measures? You’d think it was obvious. But not to some of the […]
Veteran Journalist: I’d Do the Same Today
In the wake of the media storm about the possibility of an Israeli military strike in Iran, a veteran journalist recalled on Sunday another Israeli military operation: the 1981 strike on Iraq’s nuclear reactor. On June 7, 1981, during the term of Prime Minister Menachem Begin, Israel carried out Operation Opera, a surprise air strike […]
Don’t Bother Calling the Police in Israel: Israeli Police Defend Muslim Attackers Over Israeli Citizens
Women in Green founders Nadia Matar and Yehudit Katsover were detained for six hours by Israeli police when they called for aid and sought to file a complaint. At the end of their ordeal they concluded those seeking redress when attacked by Arabs shouldn’t bother calling the police. “In the morning we saw that Arabs […]
The Guardian Acknowledges Anti-Semitism…Or Does It?
Deborah Orr’s “chosen” slur in a particularly nasty Guardian opinion piece on the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange and her subsequent disgusting excuse for an “apology” caused a real stink. And it looks like we got the attention of The Guardian: Excuses, excuses. We hear them all the time. From the Palestinian Authority condemning an act […]

Microphones accidently left on after G20 meeting pick up private conversation between US, French presidents. Sarkozy admits he ‘can’t stand’ Israeli premier. Obama: You’re fed up with him?
