Another Terrorist Site 0wn3d: I really hesitate to link this because it takes shots at all Arabs instead of just the terrorists, but when a terrorist web site gets hacked it just deserves to be linked. In this case, Hizbollah’s page got h@x0r3d. You can check it out here but be aware there is some […]

Terrorism As A Tactic: If you break the ‘War on Terrorism’ down to it’s simplest form, it’s really an attempt to prove that using terrorism as a tactic to change the policies of governments is doomed to failure.

Canadian Man Mildly Offended That America Isn’t Threatening To Invade Canada: Isn’t having the United States say that you’re “no threat” sort of like a friend of yours who asks you to “hang out” with his girlfriend while he’s gone because he knows she’d “never go for someone like you?”

Letter To The Irish Times: In one of our commentary sections, someone named Ron posted an email he sent to the the Irish Times a while back. He said it wasn’t published but I thought it deserved to be seen by a larger audience than the people who read the comments on that post. Therefore, […]

What Does ‘You’re Not Black Enough’ Mean?: I’m not a big Anthony Williams fan but this sort of thing annoys me to no end, “D.C. Mayor Anthony A.

Confessions Of An Isolationist Wannabe: Rarely a day passes on the internet without another article being written that claims America is a “hegemon”, that we’re like “like Rome,” or that we want to “create an empire.” Take it from a Conservative, ultra-nationalistic, America-first hawk; Americans on the whole would rather drive bamboo shoots under their […]
