Beslan children still tormented

Aug 30, 2005 10:04 am By Rebecca Bynum

A disturbing story from the BBC: In the basement of his Beslan home, seven-year-old Chermen is kicking boxes with a surprising energy given his age and his tiny frame. His face is tense and betrays the turmoil he is feeling. But when we sit down to talk, he regains his composure. Looking straight into my […]

More TV means less Koran, say Muslims

Aug 30, 2005 8:11 am By Robert Spencer

Many, many times people have told me that I need not be concerned about the global jihad, because the jihad ideology will ultimately bow before Big Macs and Britney Spears. But I am not so sure that American pop culture is really all-conquering, and even less sure that it should be — there are ideological […]

Jihad Watch’s Hugh Fitzgerald explains why it’s time to patch it up with France: France’s policies were never quite as intolerable as depicted. Chirac is a crook, DdeV a preener, a poseur, and a poetaster. Nicholas Sarkozy, the unbeatable future president, has his embarrassments with a wayward wife, but when it comes to Islam, he […]
