Iraq-Three Nations
Tom Barrett

Editor’s Note: Tom is taking a brief hiatus from writing his weekly column. This article was originally published on August 15, 2005.

By the time this is published, the deadline for the new Iraqi government to have produced a constitution will have come and gone. It is doubtful that they will meet the deadline. And in one important sense, it doesn’t matter whether they do or not. Because Iraq is not one nation – it is three. And no document the three factions produce can ever change that fact. The British made a huge mistake when they forced three groups that hated one another to become one “nation.” Today the US is perpetuating that mistake by insisting that this make believe “nation” remain one.

John McCain’s “Reverend Wright Moment”
by Christopher G. Adamo

As the Hillary/Obama melee continues, America is increasingly able to see their politically fatal flaws. Polling of recent weeks has clearly shown that, despite all of the pathetically transparent media hype for Barack Obama, the public would gladly opt instead for a candidate who could be counted on to uphold the values and mores of traditional America.

Dem Primaries a Microcosm of Socialist Thinking
by Doug Patton

A generation ago, Democrats decided that fairness outweighed the need for an orderly process that actually produced a viable candidate for President of the United States. Following the 1968 debacle in Chicago, the party rigged the system so that never again would their bigwigs be denied a voice in the presidential nominating convention. This arcane system is a microcosm of socialist thinking.

Operation Chaos and Hillary’s Future
by Bruce Walker

The narrow victory of Hillary in Indiana is proof that Rush Limbaugh’s Operation Chaos is really working. Had Hillary lost in Indiana, then she would have been in an almost untenable position in terms of remaining in the Democratic race. Although everyone is talking about how she has lost already, the next two weeks look very good for her.

Tribune Covers for Obama’s Terrorist Friends
by Cliff Kincaid

The Chicago Tribune, which once employed Barack Obama campaign strategist David Axelrod, is refusing to publish the truth about a Weather Underground terrorist bombing that killed a policeman. The paper apparently does not want to tarnish the image of Obama friends Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, who were allegedly part of or had direct knowledge of the bombing plot that also injured several other police officers.

Living on the Edge of Destruction: Israel’s 60th Anniversary
by Alan Caruba

“Trusting in the Rock of Israel we now place our signatures in witness to this proclamation, sitting as the Provisional State Council, on the soil of the homeland, in the city of Tel-Aviv, this day, Friday afternoon, the 5th of Iyar, 5708, the 14th of May, 1948.” This was the moment of the re-birth of Israel announced by David Ben-Gurion, the first Prime Minister of Israel.

Communists, the Media, and the Democratic Party
by Cliff Kincaid

Tom Hayden, who cheered for a communist military victory in Vietnam, is calling attention to Senator Hillary Clinton’s old ties to communists. But Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein, formerly of the Washington Post, wonders if Hillary’s comments on Senator Barack Obama’s ties to communist terrorist Bill Ayers constitute McCarthyism.

From Welfare State to Police State
by Stephen Baskerville

Family fragmentation costs taxpayers at least $112 billion annually in antipoverty programs, justice and education systems, and lost revenue, according to a report released last week. Astonishingly, the report’s publisher, Institute for American Values, is using these findings to advocate even higher costs, through more federal programs.

Nuclear Attack on Washington DC - Preparation or Anesthetization
by Dino Minutillo

The Washington Times published a story on April 16, 2008 by Gary Emerling titled “Nuclear attack on D.C. a hypothetical disaster.” The author describes the effects a 10 Kiloton Hiroshima-sized bomb would have on the DC area to include deaths, its destructive effects, response capability, and the strain a recovery operation would have on American citizens. Awesome story; informative and quite frankly scary. Unfortunately, there is a hidden agenda with this story.

Obama’s Staying Power

When Barack Obama first announced his candidacy for the Democrat presidential nomination, it didn’t seem to most seasoned observers that he had much of a chance against former first lady, New York Senator and seeming shoo-in for the nomination, Hillary Clinton. Whatever else we wish to think about Obama, he’s certainly proved many of us wrong.
