Ollie North Vividly Portrays the American Heroes

American Heros cover

By 204 B.C., the Carthaginian general, Hannibal, had been wreaking havoc on the Italian peninsula for 14 years at a cost to Rome and its Italian allies of approximately 100,000 lives. In that year, a young charismatic general from one of Rome’s most aristocratic families, Cornelius Scipio, convinced his elders in the Senate to send him and an expeditionary force by sea to attack the Carthaginian homeland in North Africa. This finally brought Hannibal’s army … More >

Timmerman Exposes Saboteurs in Our Government

Shadow Warriors cover

Kenneth Timmerman’s new book, Shadow Warriors: The Untold Story of Traitors, Saboteurs, and the Party of Surrender, is a potent assault on the enemy within. The late great U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Jeanne Kirkpatrick once reflected upon her role in the war against the Communist bloc and its sycophants by remarking, “We understood that our words were weapons.” Now, in a world where ubiquitous Internet-bound words penetrate every private salon from Tehran to … More >

What’s Wrong in California Can Spread to the Rest of U.S.

cashill2

Jack Cashill is a national treasure. His latest book, What’s the Matter with California: Cultural Rumbles From the Golden State and Why the Rest of Us Should Be Shaking, is a highly informative and an important commentary. I recently caught up to Cashill at a speaking engagement at a gathering of San Francisco Bay Area Republicans. He was clearly enjoying his role as one part entertainer, two parts investigative reporter extraordinaire. With a beaming smile … More >

An ‘Infidel’ Reveals Islam’s Internal Fight

Infidel cover

Edward Gibbon, perhaps the preeminent historian of the second millennium, in his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, wrote that Mohammed had “no more than 17 wives: 11 enumerated and who occupied at Medina their separate apartments round the house of the apostle, and enjoyed in their turns the favor of his conjugal society.” For the practicing Muslim, the life of Mohammad cannot be judged. His is the life by which all others are … More >

Iranian Discontent May Well Bring Regime Change

News coming from Iran these days runs the gamut from the specter of the terrorist/rogue state poised to acquire nuclear weapons to the hopeful defection and disappearance of one of its top military men, Gen. Ashgari. [See Defector Could Be Key to Regime Change in Iran, by Lt. Gen. Tom McInerney] The media seem to be overwhelmed by this 1938-like moment and not up to the task of reporting a story so multifaceted and so … More >

NATO Winning Battle Against Terrorist Taliban in Afghanistan

About the Afghani Northern Alliance fighters and Western Military Although it is not fashionable to give President Bush any credit for successfully prosecuting the War on militant Islam, the Afghan theater is proving to be a solid model for the future where four positives for the West have emerged. One, in 2001, the coalition of Afghani Northern Alliance fighters and Western military were able to remove the Taliban from power in a matter of weeks … More >

The Iraq Surrender Report Post Mortem

Finding the Target cover

Can anyone imagine Ronald Reagan appointing a blue-ribbon panel, partly comprised of his political enemies, and ordering it to produce a report that would tell him how to deal with the Soviet Union?

Perhaps the most odious aspect of Iraq Study Group report was that it linked the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with our decision to remove Saddam Hussein from power, as if both were imperialist depredations of the Middle East, wrongs for which America must atone. And … More >

Introducing ‘Good News From The Front’

Imperial Grunts cover

An adequate working description of my new column might well be: Militant Islam vs. the West—The Good News. But now that both Iraq and Lebanon seem to be slouching toward civil war, now that schools open to Afghan girls are being attacked with savage impunity, now that Carl Levin, that sultan of surrender will be heading the Senate Armed Services committee, now that John Bolton has resigned, now that the Iraq Studyy Group has been … More >

A Message From The Iranian Resistance To President Bush

Iranian Resistance

More and more Iranians, especially the young, have had enough of this barbarity. “If we were to take out their nuclear weapons sites militarily, this will backfire on us, and push the Iranian people into the arms of the Mullahs,” said Joe Biden on an August appearance on Tim Russert’s, Meet the Press. While few pundits can now disagree that the road to victory must now run through Tehran, Biden’s mantra is not only suffused … More >

Amnesty Ruined Western Roman Empire

Congress now piously debates an amnesty bill, U.S. cities brace for more marches promoted by Spanish-language radio stations, and Marxists and anarchists wish to see more and more illegals have a claim on your family assets. It’s chilling to remember that it was our ancestors’ embrace of amnesty that served to bring down the Western Roman Empire. On August 24, 410 A.D., the Roman general, Alaric, and his collection of German tribesman, Herulians, Rugians, and … More >
