Once again, the United Nations has condemned Israel. These condemnations carry so much credibility from an organization that once had Syria on its security council and Libya on its human rights council.

The scarcity …

Good News! We Aren’t Really At War!
Well it finally happened. And I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. At long last, the Obama administration has come out and admitted in so many words that we are not really at war with radical Islam.
