Moscow on Wednesday called for Ankara to arrest a rebel it claims killed the pilot of the Russian jet downed by Turkey last month on the Syrian border. "We demand that the Turkish authorities take immediate steps to apprehend Alparslan Celik and his accomplices and bring them to justice for the murder of the Russian pilot," foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a statement. In an interview published Sunday in Turkish newspaper Hurriyet, Celik -- a Turkmen rebel and citizen of Turkey -- said that his "conscience cannot be bothered by a person who threw bombs at Turkmen civilians every day," referring to the slain Russian pilot. Both pilots aboard the ...
Al Jazeera and Its Hatred of White America

Al Jazeera, which has made its contempt for the white citizens of America known for years, seized the opportunity to malign a white American icon, Hall of Fame-bound quarterback Peyton Manning, without vetting the story completely. Why? Al Jazeera’s hatred of white Americans was amply demonstrated during the presidential campaign of 2008, when it aired a video in which it interviewed supporters at a rally for Sarah Palin and featured them acting fearful of a Barack Obama presidency. The video’s central character, an Obama supporter, even clinched the deal by asserting he was afraid for Obama’s safety. Does it have hatred of American Christians? Try this: on June 25, 2009, ...

U.S. intelligence agencies recently monitored a Chinese test of a new rail car-based long-range missile capable of hitting targets throughout the United States. The canister ejection test of a DF-41 missile from a rail-mobile launcher was detected on Dec. 5 in western China, said defense officials familiar with reports of the test. Few details were available on the DF-41 launcher ejection test. However, Chinese rail-based missile development has been carried out in the past at the Wuzhai missile test center, also known as the Taiyuan satellite launch center since 1982, according to declassified CIA documents. The launch site is located in China’s central Shanxi Province. The test ...

Stockholm (AFP) - The iconic British heavy metal band Motorhead is calling it quits after the death of legendary frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, the group's Swedish drummer said Tuesday."Motörhead is over, of course. Lemmy was Motörhead, but the band will live on in the memories of many," Mikkey Dee told the website of Sweden's Expressen tabloid newspaper."We won't be doing any more tours or anything. And there won't be any more records. But the brand survives, and Lemmy lives on in the hearts of everyone," the Swedish musician said.The gravel-voiced Lemmy, one of rock and roll's great survivors despite a hard-partying lifestyle, ...
George Will Is Right—Donald Trump IS A Threat, To Cuckservatism Inc.

Just before Christmas, the Ghost of George Will Present (or whichever of his interns was writing his column that day) moaned that the real threat to American conservatism is Donald Trump: “Conservatives’ highest priority now must be to prevent Trump from winning the Republican nomination in this the GOP’s third epochal intra-party struggle in 104 years.” [Will Donald Trump End the GOP’s Role as America’ Conservative Party? National Review, December 23, 2015]. “Highest priority”? What does this say about “conservatives”—let alone Will? Apparently Will was furious that Trump didn’t immediately denounce and condemn Vladimir Putin ...

The buildings on Euro currency have no actual existence--they're generic to avoid offending anyone. On Jan. 1, 2002, the day that euro coins and banknotes entered into circulation, my column,“Say Goodbye to the Mother Continent,”contained this pessimistic prognosis: This European superstate will not endure, but break apart on the barrier reef of nationalism. For when the hard times come, patriots will recapture control of their national destinies from Brussels bureaucrats to whom no one will ever give loyalty or love. The column described what was already happening. Europe is dying. There is not a single nation in all of Europe with a birth rate sufficient to keep its ...
Why is the American republic fighting to impose tyranny at Ramadi?

“The commonest error in politics is sticking to the carcasses of dead policies. When a mast falls overboard, you do not try to save a rope here and a spar there in memory of their former utility. You cut away the hamper altogether. It should be the same with policy, but it is not so. We cling to the shred of an old policy after it has been torn to pieces, and to the shadow of the shred after the rag itself has been torn away.” Lord Salisbury, 1877 If or when Ramadi is recaptured from the Islamic State (IS) by the Iraqi regime’s Shia-dominated military forces, which are being supported by U.S. air power, the United States will have scored another telling and self- inflicted ...

Turkey is training Islamic State terrorists in a camp disguised as a training ground for the Free Syrian Army, a 20-year-old jihadist captured by the Kurdish YPG told Sputnik. The prisoner said Ankara’s help to the “moderate” Syrian opposition is not as innocent as portrayed. Captured by the Kurdish People’s Protection Unit (YPG) fighters in Northern Syria in November, Abdurrahman Abdulhadi, a Syrian national-turned Daesh (Islamic State) fighter, says he was trained in Turkey before receiving his first assignment with Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL). The YPG maintains external security in the three Democratic Union Party (PYD) run areas, and is fighting ...

A couple in Ecuador is making history with a unique pregnancy: The father-to-be is carrying the baby of his transgender partner. Fernando Machado and Diane Rodriguez announced their pregnancy, believed to be the first of its kind in South America, on social media earlier this month and it's received widespread attention in a continent that has seen a sudden explosion in the rights and visibility of trans people. Rodriguez, who was born Luis, is one of Ecuador's most-prominent LGBT activists and says she and her Venezuelan-born partner, whose birth name was Maria, decided to publicize the pregnancy to help change attitudes in the staunchly Roman Catholic society. Although both take ...

Barack Obama’s repeated insistence that Bashar al-Assad must leave office – and that there are ‘moderate’ rebel groups in Syria capable of defeating him – has in recent years provoked quiet dissent, and even overt opposition, among some of the most senior officers on the Pentagon’s Joint Staff. Their criticism has focused on what they see as the administration’s fixation on Assad’s primary ally, Vladimir Putin. In their view, Obama is captive to Cold War thinking about Russia and China, and hasn’t adjusted his stance on Syria to the fact both countries share Washington’s anxiety about the spread of terrorism in and beyond Syria; like ...
Obamatrade: an Open Door for China

President Obama sold Obamacare by telling us “If you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance.” Now he is selling Obamtrade, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, by telling us “If we don’t write the rules for the global economy, China will.” Once again, the White House spin doesn’t line up with the facts. And once again, people who should know better are buying the spin. In fact, TPP – which Obama calls an essential part of his foreign policy ‘pivot to Asia’ – will do nothing to curb China. It will actually help China “write the rules” for the global economy. Obamatrade amounts to an Open Door policy that will allow China to ...

Yazidi survivor Nadia Murad Basee Taha described to the United Nations Security Council the horrific ordeal she endured while the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) used her as a sex slave. “Rape was used to destroy women and girls and to guarantee that these women could never lead a normal life again,” she declared. WARNING! VERY GRAPHIC CONTENT. The terrorists raped Taha until she passed out. The sadistic terrorist group captured Taha in August 2014 as they expanded their caliphate across Iraq and Syria. They consider Yazidis “devil-worshippers” and wish to wipe the minority religion sect off the planet. Taha explained: Along the way, they humiliated us. They touched us and ...

The butchier-than-thou vibe of the last GOP debate reached its apogee when Chris Christie proclaimed his no-fly zone over Syria and then threatened to shoot Russian planes out of the sky. Rand Paul was impressed. "If you want World War Three," he said, "there's your candidate." Actually, on the fifth anniversary of the Arab "Spring", I get the feeling World War Three is coming with or without Chris Christie - for the same reasons that World Wars One and Two came: the order enforcers can no longer enforce order, and the provocateurs know it, and in that kind of environment stray peripheral threads can unravel the entire geopolitical quilt. The talk at the ...
How Peace is Maintained between Hindus and Muslims in India–“Fear Of Mob Fury”

When Muslims burned 59 Hindus alive in 2002, rioting Hindus killed up to 2000 Muslims. Muslims in India aren't peaceful--they're cautious. In the December 15th GOP debate, Ted Cruz said that … there are millions of peaceful Muslims across the world in countries like India where there are not the problems we are seeing in nations that have territories controlled by al Qaeda or ISIS… In a recent blog post, Washington Watcher points out examples of Muslim Indian terrorism to show that, yes, it happens there too. At 14% of the population, Muslims comprise a minority in India. But remember that we’re talking about India, with a total population over 1.2 billion. So ...

It raised a key short term rate by a quarter of a point. That is not the real story. The real story is how the non-functioning mainstream press swallowed the economic recovery story hook, line and sinker. Fed Head Janet Yellen boasted “The economic recovery has come a long way . . . .” Not a single reporter brought up new data that the Baltic Dry Index (released just a few days earlier) had hit record lows clearly signaling a downward spiraling global economy. ...

“If you’re in favor of World War III, you have your candidate.” So said Rand Paul, looking directly at Gov. Chris Christie, who had just responded to a question from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer as to whether he would shoot down a Russian plane that violated his no-fly zone in Syria. “Not only would I be prepared to do it, I would do it,” blurted Christie: “I would talk to Vladimir Putin … I’d say to him, ‘Listen, Mr. President, there’s a no-fly zone in Syria; you fly in, it applies to you.’ “Yes, we would shoot down the planes of Russian pilots if in fact they were stupid enough to think that this president was the same feckless ...

(CNN)—Donald Trump has said that he would "get along very well" with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The feeling is apparently mutual. Putin offered high praise for the billionaire businessman-turned-Republican presidential front-runner on Thursday during an annual news conference with reporters. "He is a bright and talented person without any doubt," Putin said, adding that Trump is "an outstanding and talented personality." And in remarks closely mirroring Trump's assessment of the campaign, the Russian leader called Trump "the absolute leader of the presidential race," according to the Russian TASS news agency. Later Thursday, ...

I've disagreed with David Frum on many things in recent years, but this piece on immigration is great because it's packed with facts: Minnesota is home to America's largest Somali community, 33,000 people. The unemployment rate for Somali Minnesotans in 2015 was triple the state average, 21 percent. As of 2014, about 5,950 of the state's Somali population received cash assistance; 17,000 receive food assistance as of 2014. A close study of Somali refugees by the government of Maine (home to the nation's second-largest Somali community) found that fewer than half of the working-age population had worked at any time in the five years from 2001 through 2006. The U.S. ...

Turkey's duplicity threatens the entire region Turkey borders several Middle Eastern countries that are either unstable or potentially hostile to it, sometimes both simultaneously. With a modern military of more than 600,000 underwritten by NATO membership it is regional superpower whose ability to dominate the politics of its neighbors is sometimes exercised. Turkey has a large and educated population, a vibrant diversified economy and is at the crossroads of east and west, Asia and Europe. Together with Egypt, it is truly the indispensable nation if anyone wants to seriously consider influencing developments in the Near East. It is perhaps Turkey’s indispensability that is part ...

Turkey must pull all its forces out of a camp in northern Iraq, a spokesman for the Iraqi prime minister said on Tuesday after Turkey withdrew some troops from the area. The deployment of around 150 Turkish troops to a camp near the northern Iraqi city of Mosul earlier this month has strained relations between Ankara and Baghdad, which protested to the United Nations. Turkey said on Monday that some of its troops had begun leaving, but Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi's spokesman said it was not enough. "The position of the government of Iraq is still the same: Turkey must pull out this force to the international borders and not reorganize its deployment," Saad al-Hadithi ...

Saudi Special Forces Commander Among Slain in Attack on Base In what appears to be the single deadliest strike of the nine-month Saudi war in Yemen, forces loyal to the Shi’ite Houthis fired an OTR-21 Tochka tactical ballistic missile at a pro-Saudi coalition base near Taiz, with early reports putting the death toll around 152 troops. The identities of all the slain are still being sorted out, but dozens of foreign troops are among the slain, including Saudi Special Forces commander Col. Abdullah Sahyan. Emirati and Moroccan soldiers were also identified as among the slain. The Houthis reported the attack was carried out by one of the nation’s few remaining Tochka missiles, and ...

MOSCOW (AP) -- U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday accepted Russia's long-standing demand that President Bashar Assad's future be determined by his own people, as Washington and Moscow edged toward putting aside years of disagreement over how to end Syria's civil war.

A major international conference on Syria would take place later this week in New York, Kerry announced. Kerry reiterated the U.S. position that Assad, accused by the West of massive human rights violations and chemical weapons ...
