The election of the vicious terrorist organization Hamas to govern the Palestinian Authority highlights one of the biggest intellectual con games of the past few decades.
Ever since the discrediting of communism, leftists have been championing a purposely vague thing called "democracy" as the sys...

I both laughed and cried at the recent news that President Bush wants the United Nations to decide on what to do about Iran. I’m sure Iran’s leaders would merely laugh. The UN has proven to be impotent in preventing dictatorships from sponsoring terrorism and committing other atrocities against free...
