There are no poor excuses for beautiful women to freely choose to display her naked or nearly naked body; doing so is good for the onlooking men’s cardiovascular health and intrinsically beautifies the environment of wherever the women happens to be. Beautiful But Useless; What Was She Protesting? If, however, the woman is stripping down for a cause of some sort it would be better if there was some context provided.

The drawdown of U.S. forces in Iraq has served to shift attention toward Afghanistan, where the United States has been increasing its troop strength in hopes of forming conditions conducive to a political settlement. This is similar to the way it used the 2007 surge in Iraq to help reach a negotiated settlement with the Sunni insurgents that eventually set the stage for withdrawal there.

  That’s how Mitchell described Netanyahu-Abbas’ meeting in Washington. And he must be right. Three cousins – Russian tsar, German kaiser, and British king exchanged pleasant letters while their subjects slaughtered each other on WWI battlefields. Shabak maintained Arafat’s accounts in Israel during the Intifada. It should come as no surprise that Netanyahu enjoys talking to Abbas while Palestinian terrorists keep murdering Jews. The talks ending in nothing:... Full Story

Disregarding a clear and credible warning of terror attacks, Netanyahu continued his friendly peace talk in Washington. Sure enough, a second terrorist attack occurred: a car was ambushed near Rimonim junction, two Jews wounded, their car ridden with bullets. Hamas’ military wing claimed responsibility for the attack. Nevertheless, Israel did not interrupt cargo transit or electricity supply to the Hamas-ruled Gaza. Unwilling to jeopardize relations with Obama, the government... Full Story

A rabid eco-terrorist and devotee of Daniel Quinn’s anti-humanist and anti-civilization doctrine, James Lee, has attacked the Discovery Channel headquarters in downtown Silver Spring, MD and taken an unknown number of people hostage. It is armed with at least one pistol and appears to be strapped with explosives (eco-jihadi?). The crazed Leftist eco-freak did all this because years of its protesting Discovery have born it no fruit. Discovery just wouldn’t kowtow to the filthy... Full Story

Yes, There is Grain… Yesterday I wrote an article about: In Russia Grain Speculators Just Plain “Suck”… This article expressed that Russia was not as short on grain as the underlining scum tried to make the world believe… Well today Russia has a new thought going: RBC: Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has signed a decree on introducing several exceptions to the temporary ban on grain exports from August 15 to December 31, 2010.
