U.S. military sees Iran’s nuke bomb 5 years away

Aug 31, 2006 11:58 am By Marisol Seibold

It boggles the mind that a five-year estimate on Iran’s nuclear capabilities could be viewed with any kind of relief, let alone that it could lead to a “general lack of urgency” for dealing with Iran’s nuclear program. From the Washington Times: The U.S. military is operating under the assumption that Iran is five to […]

While in S. Lebanon, IDF forces uncover more Hizballah youth propaganda

Aug 31, 2006 2:05 am By Marisol Seibold

While Hizballah’s attempts to infuse itself with popular culture and entertainment, and to indoctrinate children are not new, materials discovered by the Israel Defense Forces show a lower-tech and more direct angle via the content of children’s games. From YNet News: “Hizbullah presents: How to recruit children” Do you know who is “the most senior […]

Dhimmi Carter “is open to a meeting if the former president of Iran would like to have one”

Aug 30, 2006 12:40 pm By Marisol Seibold

The article calls it “an event that would turn a page in American history,” but it’s really just proof once again that former President Dhimmi Carter learned nothing from the crisis with Iran that occurred during his administration. The Carter Center in Atlanta is making preparations for the possible visit by Khatami, doubtlessly considered another […]

In FrontPage this morning I discuss some elements of the Muslim Prophet Muhammad’s example that blur the distinction between forced and uncoerced conversions to Islam (news links in the original): The most bizarre element of the two weeks of captivity suffered by Fox News reporter Steve Centanni and photographer Olaf Wiig at the hands of […]

SF hit-and-run killer suffering from stress from arranged marriage

Aug 30, 2006 6:24 am By Robert Spencer

Well, anyone can see how that would make you want to kill random pedestrians out in front of the Jewish Community Center. There is nothing in this story about how he identified himself as a terrorist. Looks as if that one has already dropped down the memory hole. And of course, I am sure he […]

Aug 30, 2006 1:16 am By Marisol Seibold

Abu Bakar Bashir weighs in on a variety of subjects, and expresses a desire to preach in Australia — “to save people.” In this brief, but wide-ranging interview, he very clearly spells out the nature of the Sharia law he wants to impose on the rest of the world.

Ahmadinejad: low expectations on UN accountability

Aug 30, 2006 12:04 am By Marisol Seibold

And given the UN’s track record on halting Iran’s nuclear program so far, why should he think otherwise, even as the August 31 deadline arrives tomorrow?
