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

Nicole Duran: Obama Says More More More To Refugees

Who cares they can't be vetted?   In a brief Easter weekend radio address, President Obama vowed to decimate the self-proclaimed Islamic State, but he said the United States will do so by offering an example of freedom, tolerance and open society. "Our openness to refugees fleeing ISIL's violence; our determination to win the battle against ISIL's  ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: The President's Speech

Clueless in D.C.     When the President of the United States asks the television networks to set aside time for him to broadcast a speech from the Oval Office, we can usually expect that he has something new to say. But President Obama's speech Sunday night was just a rehash of what he has been saying all along, trying to justify policies that have   ... MORE

Syrian Refugee Policy Raises Serious States’ Rights Issue

by Bob Barr.      The flood of refugees from Syria and other Middle East countries that the Obama Administration is preparing to distribute to communities across the nation raises very real and understandable security concerns among government officials at the state and local levels, and among the citizenry generally.  It is, of course, facile for        ...

Jeannie DeAngelis: Syrian Refugees - 'Trust Not The horse'

UN says 72% of refugees are male.     If one were to ask your everyday educationally challenged American what a Trojan horse is, the answer would probably include at least one reference to an equine-sized condom. Conversely, on the Syrian-Turkish border, where ISIS militants are more interested in world domination than they are safe sex,     ... MORE

The Newest Obama Lie: We Can Vet The Syrian Refugees

by Ed Straker.  Deploying the honor system with terrorists. Both Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have called for the US to accept more Syrian refugees, as long as they are properly "vetted", of course. But what does it mean to "vet" a refugee? Normally, if someone wants to come into the United States, say, from France or Germany, our government   ... 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

Thomas Sowell: Stop The Bleeding

Europe is learning a painful lesson.      There was a painful irony when France's immediate response to the terrorist attacks in Paris was to close the borders. If they had closed the borders decades ago, they might have avoided this attack. Someone once said that the First World War was the most stupid thing that European nations ever did. Countries   ...

Map Shows Where Syrian Refugees Have Resettled In USA

From Turlock, CA to Kissimmee, FL.      The refugees who have arrived from Syria since 2012 have been placed in 130 towns and cities. They are among the most vulnerable people in the war: single mothers and their children; religious minorities; victims of violence or torture. Some of them have reached large cities like Houston, but most have    ... MORE

Despite Paris Attacks, Obama Administration Moves To Increase And Accelerate The Number Of Syrian Refugees

An invitation to catastrophe.  The Obama administration is moving to increase and accelerate the number of Syrian refugees who might be admitted into the United States by opening new screening outposts in Iraq and Lebanon, administration officials told Reuters on Friday. The move comes after President Barack Obama pledged in September to   ... MORE

When American Exceptionalism Was Self-Evident

by Barry Farber.        A journalism professor once insisted that if the headline were good enough you wouldn’t have to write the rest of the story. Shall we try it? Here goes! “The World Has Lost America as a Champion of Freedom.” Our teachers never tried to sell us on American exceptionalism. It wasn’t necessary. It automatically became     ... MORE

Deirdre Reilly: Pope Francis, Tear Down this Wall!

Unlike Vatican City, the pope preaches open borders for U.S. Pope Francis urged a policy of open borders and open arms to immigrants in his speech to Congress Thursday, telling lawmakers not to worry about the numbers of refugees seeking refuge on foreign shores. Apparently, the pope forgot about the fortress he lives in, with an impenetrable ... 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
