I first heard about it from listening to good old reliable Rush Limbaugh. He prefaced it with saying that he [...]

Writing as someone who fully supported our initial invasion of Afghanistan (and who still does support it); I think it is time to get out. Now. Any good that comes from our staying is now going to be greatly outweighed by the harm we do – to the Afghan people, to our troops, to our [...]

He died on Nov 19, 2011 during a raid by the Pakistani military, either killed by the military or killing himself with a hand grenade, depending on whose story you [...]

Just as I was finishing my last two blogs (maybe three) about Islam up comes a news piece about how Lowe’s is pulling its ads from the TV show “American Muslim”. I have no idea on the quality of this show –whether it is good or bad. Given that it is a reality show I [...]

Before I go into the history of the creation of Israel and provide some information the FLAME ad conveniently leaves out let me state my opinions about Israel up front. First, I believe that Israel should never have been created in the manner it was. It was a huge mistake, mainly on the part of [...]

In my previous blog, Islam, Muslims, and Anti-Semitism Part 4, I dealt with the status of Jews in early Islam and showed that they, in general, enjoyed greater freedoms and had a higher status than they did in Christian countries at that time. In this blog I will be addressing one of the reasons why [...]

In my last blog I discussed some of the early history of Muhammad and the Jews at Medina as well as some of the verses often used to “prove” anti-Semitism “integral” to Islam. In this blog I will discuss some of the early history of Islam and Jews and show that until fairly recently Jews, [...]

In my last blog I went over just some of the many actions and words by Muslims that prove that anti-Semitism is not an “integral” part of Islam. Now, before going on to the verses in the Qur’an used to justify anti-Semitism, let me deal with a bit of history first. Specifically I will discuss [...]

How do you determine what a person’s moral character is like? For me, it is by observing that person’s actions.
