Now Myanmar wants a nuke, North Korea helps

There’s already Iran and North Korea to worry about, but now Myanmar wants in on the action to become a rogue nuclear nation. And thanks to the world leniency that’s been shown to N. Korea, it was able to help Myanmar get started on its nuclear program: A defector from Myanmar — an army major [...]

In flotilla conflict, Israel acted as the humanitarian

Once in a while anti-Israeli organizations and enemies of Israel would plan a publicity stunt to draw the attention of world media into painting the country as an oppressive, bloodthirsty regime bent on imprisoning those poor Palestinians. Well, it was that time again as pro-Palestinian activists departed from Turkey decided to make the stunt of [...]

Left With Little Hope

A newly published Rasmussen Poll indicates that just 51% of American voters believe that the United States is the world’s last best hope for mankind.  I find this to be extraordinary for many reasons, but I am especially disturbed by the self loathing exhibited by those on the left end of the political spectrum.  The [...]

Obama’s nuke-free dream world

I, too, dream of President Obama’s dream. A world free of war, WMDs, nuclear bombs, terrorism, and evildoers. A world where citizens live in harmony, no matter the skin color, personal wealth, intellectual capacity, nationality, or religious faith. A world filled with fairness and equality in all aspects of life. Then I wake up. But [...]

European Union starts to show cracks

Could Greece’s debt crisis tear the European Union apart? German Chancellor Angela Merkel, with backing from most Germans, oppose to a bailout of Greece. That has angered Greek parliament members, so much so that they’re going back to World World II history. Share and Enjoy:

Greece bailout puts eurozone in peril

Analysts from the leading French bank, Societe Generale, told investors that a bailout of the Greek debt would send the eurozone bloc into a financial crisis, risking a “double-dip” recession of the member states. The European Union, led by Germany and France, has tentatively agreed to rescue Greece, but details are still vague. A bailout [...]

Iran goes nuclear (but we already knew that)

Iranians took to the streets to celebrate Revolution Day and hear President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad proudly declare the country is now a “nuclear state.” Its Natanz plant successfully produced 20% enriched uranium, capable as fuel for nuclear power plants but also as atomic weapons. Guess which purpose Ahmadinejad has in mind? ‘We have the capability to [...]

India abandons IPCC

As the mid-Atlantic region endures a couple more feet of wintry snow, we get news from half-way across the globe of more fallout from Climategate… Emerging economy India has decided to ditch the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change — ironically headed by its own scientist Dr. R.K. Pachauri. India will establish its own National [...]

Lech Walesa sees no hope in Obama

Lech Walesa — leader of the Polish Solidarity movement, Nobel Peace Prize recipient, and former president of Poland — has some strong words for President Obama and America under his administration: He no longer thinks we are the last best hope for mankind.  “The United States is only one superpower. Today they lead the world. [...]

Ignored Iran moves up in nuclear and space clubs

President Obama has done absolutely nothing concrete to rein in rogue Iran with its human rights violations, constant public threats against our ally Israel, and nuclear development. And now it moves up in the space club, with an expansion of its space program: Iran test-fired a new satellite rocket and unveiled a series of what [...]

Latest Iranian protest crackdowns

The leaders of Iran are definitely scared of losing power. How else would you explain their latest crackdown of protesters by detaining relatives of activists? Authorities in Iran intensified their drive to snuff out the opposition movement overnight by arresting the relatives of prominent activists, including the sister of the Nobel laureate and human rights [...]

The circus in Copenhagen

This just gets better and better… First, as world leaders huddle indoors to work on a global warming deal, four inches of snow dumped onto Copenhagen. I’m also sure that the heater is turned on inside the conference rooms and world leaders wore big coats. Yes, the Earth is warming up indeed. Then it’s reported [...]

Obama’s ‘Dear Jong-Il’ letter?

I cannot think of a reason for the president to actually write a letter addressed to cuckoo North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il. I guess President Obama was hoping that his prose could persuade Kim to come back to the negotiation table about getting rid of N. Korea’s nuclear ambition. I wonder if the president also [...]
