  • The Great Game -- Anglo Amero Brits and Kamchatka!

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waziristan Honestly, I do not know why it is, that I both love to read Christopher Hitchens every week, and disagree with his every point almost without exception. Maybe it is his ''the sun never sets on the British Empire'' world girdling perapatetic meanderings around the World Map of Current Events and political ...

  • Conservative Christmas

    The current situation is a dream come true for all the Cold War lovers who felt unfulfilled without a global enemy. Why should anyone be surprised that the Bush administration ignored a warning they received just a few weeks before 9/11/01 that Al Quaeda planned to attack the U.S. using aircraft? How could anyone be surprised that bin Laden was ...
