“Many in the land of Goethe and Schiller never got over the fact that it was a gum-chewing GI who brought us democracy,” writes Jan Fleischhauer of Der Spiegel, referring to the American soldiers of World War II.
I Midtøsten knuser islamistene kors og andre kristne symboler med slegge, i Norge fjernes de ad lovgivningens vei. De tusseladdene av noen lovgivere klarer ikke engang å verne om symbolet i nasjonalflagget, og personifiserer aldeles utmerket det mørket som legger seg over Europa. Christian Skaug om den nye gravferdsloven som forbyr kors på porten til […]
Recently, after dragging its feet for years, the Central Council of Muslims in Germany had agreed to call a march against Islamist terror. The Muslim organization boasted 10,000 registered participants for the «Not with us — Muslims and friends against violence and terror» rally, scheduled for June 17 in Cologne. On the much awaited day, […]
If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being […]
The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it was impossible to avoid joining in. Within 30 seconds any pretence was always unnecessary.

De delene av Europa som fremdeles fungerer, tross alt de aller fleste, har ikke den vitaliteten eller selvhevdende evnen som er nødvendig for å europeisere de fremmede koloniene.

Han bør ikke bare se fremover med basis i egne forestillinger, men også skue bakover i tid hvor horisonten var en […]
Trump’s complaining about the courts? There are 131 judicial vacancies in the federal courts. Trump has nominated ten judges so far. Nominating qualified figures to the executive and judicial branch is a key part of governing. Reacting to what’s said about you on Morning Joe isn’t. National Review

When death stalks the land, make no mistake: He may look like a grim reaper, but he’s really a grim sower. An entire sowing bee of experts has so decreed. Indeed, in their warnings about sowing division, our betters are so non-divided that they give off the faintly creepy whiff of fellows all reading off […]
