Double Standards

I'm often amazed at how liberals apply double standards to things. It's an amazing thing to watch and to hear the bull that rolls off their tongues with utter conviction that they're right.

Prime example: how many liberals out there are in favor of the opression of women? The subjegation of women to a lesser role and status in the culture? Can anyone take a head count, please? None? I didn't think so.

So why do they want to cut and run from the fight in Afghanistan and Iraq when news stories such as this come out? Do they not want the little girls of the middle east to have an education? Do they want to prolong the subjegation and persecution of women in the middle east? And given the "mission" of Islam to spread throughout the world, and the militant attitudes of the jihadist extremists, is this what they want for the little girls of the middle east? Is this what they want for the little girls of the USA? What happened to "take your daughter to work day?"

I would love to hear from some liberals on this one, but I'm betting than other than a few trolls out there looking for nothing but a fight (which they won't get, I want discussion, not jabbing, blocking, and feigning) that there won't be any liberals with the GUTS to step up to the plate and defend their position.

Truth be told, there is no defense...

Mr. Newt Speaks Out

When I first heard that Newt Gingrich had said that we had to do whatever was possible to stop terrorism, including forgoing the first amendment, my first thought was "Mr. Newt has lost his freaking mind." I should have known better. Newt Gingrich is one of the very few politicians in this country who has his finger firmly on the American pulse. I should have realized that the left wing dinosaur media had twisted what he said and made it into something else.

Read Newt Gingrich in his own words and entirety here.

I must have hit a nerve.

In New Hampshire last week, at a dinner hosted by the Loeb School honoring our 1st-Amendment rights, I called for a serious debate about the 1st Amendment and how terrorists are abusing our rights -- using them as they once used passenger jets -- to threaten and kill Americans.

Here's part of what I said: "Either before we lose a city, or, if we are truly stupid, after we lose a city, we will adopt rules of engagement that use every technology we can find to break up [terrorists'] capacity to use the Internet, to break up their capacity to use free speech [protections] and to go after people who want to kill us -- to stop them from recruiting people before they get to reach out and convince young people to destroy their lives while destroying us."

He never said that the First Amendment should be disregarded, he said that it shouldn't be used as a shield to hide behind. BIG FREAKING DIFFERENCE.

The fact is not all speech is permitted under the Constitution. The 1st Amendment does not protect lewd and libelous speech, and it should not -- and cannot in 2006 -- be used as a shield for murderers.

Former federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy put it best: "With an enemy committed to terrorism, the advocacy of terrorism -- the threats, the words -- are not mere dogma, or even calls to 'action.' They are themselves weapons -- weapons of incitement and intimidation, often as effective in achieving their ends as would be firearms and explosives brandished openly."

My hat is off to Mr. Gingrich for his insight and his intellect, both of which he uses to uphold what we stand for, or CLAIM to stand for, as a nation. a BIG THUMBS DOWN to the dinosaur media for once again twisting someone's words into something other than what was actually said.

Paying Tribute: the Nazi Hunters

.
Simon Wiesenthal will never know the respect that I, a gentile, had for him and his work. Nor will Elliot Welles, who died this week at the age of 79.

We all know, by this point in time, unless you're an Iranian President, what the Nazis did to the Jews and to any other "undesirable, non-Aryan" peoples during WWII. That a group of people who survived the holocaust decided to hunt down those responsible for the attrocities committed by their former captors and make them pay for their actions is an amazing and remarkable thing.

The work is not over, however, as this generation passes, both the hunters and the hunted. We see in the news daily reports lashing out against Israel and against Jews, both by individuals and by those who supposedly represent the people, be it in national governments, domestic and abroad, or the current slander by Kofi Annan and others in the UN. This gives rogue nations around the world the nod, in my opinion, to conduct anti-semitic activities, knowing that the UN will blame the Jews and blame Israel anyway.

ADL, National Director issued a statement deeming the reforms of the UN an overwhelming failure.

From the day it opened for business, the U.N. Human Rights Council has never operated with any moral authority. The Council has failed in its most fundamental purpose: to monitor human rights abuses in all parts of the world. Instead, it has become a political tool wielded by its Arab and Muslim members who have the power of an automatic majority. The Council has ignored the world's worst human rights atrocities and instead has pursued Israel for political gain.

The effort as part of the U.N. reform campaign to replace the corrupt Commission on Human Rights with the revamped Human Rights Council, while well intentioned, has been an overwhelming failure.

There will be a day of reckoning, however; there always is. When that time comes, I hope, although I think I know already that there will be, other Hunters out there to bring forth the criminals against Judaism to justice. No matter what high offices they hold now (that means YOU, Mr. Annan, and YOU, Louise Arbour. Personally, I count you as being just as responsible for 9/11 as I do Osama bin Laden. Why? You're permissiveness of anti-semitism, and Arbours admission her hatred for Israel).

Know this: This time around there ARE gentiles who stand side by side with the Jews, and we take their mantra as our own. Never Again.

My respects to the family of Elliot Welles. He was a man of Honor and Valor. It is a damned shame the same can't be said for the leadership of a body that is supposed to represent the nations of the world.
