Switzerland Takes a Hardliner Stance Against Terrorism

Historically known for its neutrality, Switzerland maintained decades of politically neutral and pacifist policies towards international conflicts while seeking world peace as a motto. But even with such a pacifist approach the country remains a target for Islamism and Jihadism as it witnessed a spike in terrorism activities recently. Switzerland has taken steps to…

The Rules of Radicals

Many times, people ask me about a reading list, and one of the books I recommend is Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.” Alinsky’s rantings are truthfully the playbook of leftists. Funny, he was also from Chicago. You can see this playing out currently as another so-called son of Chicago, Barack…

Politicians vs. the People

The Preamble of the US Constitution starts off with the words “We the People.” President Abraham Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address spoke of “the government of the people, by the people, and for the people.” However, last week I witnessed just how far we have deviated from this fundamental premise…

US national security mandates regime-change in Iran

*The US State Department has rejected the regime-change option (which would gratify most Iranians) since 1978/79, when Iran’s Ayatollahs seized power, assisted by the State Department, which had stabbed the back of the Shah, who had been America’s Policeman in the Gulf.

No more leftist network debates. It is time that each side just selected a moderator, secured a venue, no audience, and conducted a real and true debate.   Like some of you, I just finished watching the one and only Vice Presidential debate. I was impressed that it was quite…

The Jolt Cola Effect of Kamala Harris

Howdy, y’all. Perhaps I am really dating myself, but before we had all these energy drinks, there was Jolt Cola. I remember it bursting onto the scene circa 1985, marketed to students and young people as a highly, and I mean doggone highly, caffeinated drink. It was popular with those…

Walz and Churches

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz has faced multiple lawsuits accusing him of infringing on religious liberty during his six years as Minnesota governor. Walz encountered legal challenges for COVID-19 lockdown policies that religious organizations argued were discriminatory, placing stricter requirements on churches than businesses. After signing a law that stripped faith-based schools of…
