by Dr. Michael Hurd. Europe has gone crazy. Yes, there are the terrorist attacks. But it’s the political correctness and censorship, too. Governments in Europe are literally sacrificing their citizens for the sake of not offending Islam. Here’s an example. Anti-Islam firebrand Geert Wilders went on trial last Friday for allegedly inciting hatred against the ... MORE

Victor Davis Hanson: The Art Of National Suicide
America can still avoid sharing Europe’s fate. But only if we take action. Because of what Europe has become, it now has few viable choices in dealing with radical Islamic terrorism. Its dilemma is a warning to Americans that we should turn away from a similar path of national suicide. After suffering serial terrorist attacks from foreign ... MORE

Amir Taheri: The Non-Assimilation Of Muslim Immigrants Aid The Left's Quest To Destroy Traditional Western Values
Islam is actively devouring Europe. On Tuesday, when Islamist suicide bombers blew themselves up in Brussels, killing 35 innocent people and injuring 240, the European Union’s foreign policy representative, the Italian Federica Mogherini, happened to be on an official visit to Amman, the Jordanian capital. Fighting back tears, she cut short a ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Can We Learn From Europe?
A valuable lesson for Americans. Earlier this year, my column asked, "Will the West Defend Itself?" I pointed out that America's leftists and progressives believe that the U.S. should become more like Europe. I wonder whether they also want to import European policies that created barbaric extremism among its Muslim population. France's ... MORE

WATCH: The Anti-Migrant Video Going Viral Across Europe
by Oliver Lane. A shocking look at today's reality. ‘With Open Gates: The forced collective suicide of European nations’, a slick, hard-hitting film about the European migrant crisis is going viral in Europe, already watched at least half a million times. Although the 19-minute film may feel like a dispatch from the future, it is cut entirely from ... MORE
Scott Sumner: Milton Friedman Saw The Euro Crisis Coming
He predicted Europe's current problems 17 years ago. Among the general public, Milton Friedman is mostly remembered for the libertarian views outlined on his PBS show Free to Choose. Among economists, he is best known for his monetarist position on Fed policy. What's less well known is that he was also a soothsayer, ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: The Past And Future Of The Refugee Crisis
No junior varsity solutions, please. The refugee crisis in Europe is one of those human tragedies for which there are no real solutions, despite how many shrill voices in the media may denounce those who fail to come up with a solution. Some options may be better than others, but there is nothing that can honestly be called a solution. Nevertheless ... MORE

Europe's Gun Laws Disarm Victims, Not Terrorists
by J. D. Tucille. When wannabe-terrorist Ayoub El Khazzani was wrestled to the floor of a
train in France and given a righteous stomping by pissed off and
proactive passengers, they relieved him of a small armory. He had been
planning to inflict murder and mayhem with an AKM assault rifle, a
semiautomatic pistol, a box cutter, and a container of ... MORE

What The Red Sox Know About Immigration Reform
by Ira Stoll. One of the things I have found reassuringly familiar as I move back to New England after an absence of nearly 20 years is the Red Sox baseball team, still battling for the top of the American League’s East division. It’s just the players who are different. The hottest Boston hitter at the moment has been Jose Iglesias, a 23-year-old infielder ... MORE
Arthur Herman: Death Of Europe Is America's Opportunity
A vindication of our free market system. Elections Sunday in France and Greece prove once and for all that the European Union is headed off the cliff, and its voters don’t care. In the short term, that’s going to mean some heartburn in US markets and global financial centers. No one likes to watch a major portion of the world’s industrialized economies, commit ... MORE
