At a recent news conference, he volunteered that he told our allies that if they’re “interested in avoiding World War III,” Iran must be prevented from both developing a nuclear weapon or having “the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon.”
    To what level of political insanity has this Washington (…)

    I just heard an eyewitness account of life in Afghanistan that curdled my blood. Have you heard similar reports? "Since the American takeover of Afghanistan, the major crops there are now opium, human organs and children." What is the lowest denominator that human beings can sink to? It’s all happening in American Afghanistan.
    Of course we know about the secret torture chambers that American and Pakistani contractors have set up there. But do you know why they are there? "People are being (…)

That is certainly some rhetorical point, (…)
