Welcome! This is an unapologetic, agenda-free zone. Just commentaries on current events that’ll move you to think, laugh, rage, and even cry.
The British monarchy is facing another abdication crisis. Only this time, the British people are calling for it in the guise of abnegation. Almost half of the British public believe Prince Charles should stand aside and let his eldest son William become the next king, polling shows. … The idea would be most popular with… Read more.
James Hewitt is Princess Diana’s former lover. But he’s defiling her reputation by insinuating that she was an adulteress who bore his child. And his only motive seems to be the money tabloids are willing to give him to peddle this insinuation. I hasten to clarify, though, that I’m no fan of royalty. My blog… Read more.
Germany will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall this weekend. Every country in the West should be celebrating too. Fall of the Berlin Wall Of course, the fall of the Berlin Wall (on November 9, 1989) led to the reunification of Germany. But it also led to the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the… Read more.
The title of this post says it all. What’s more, I’ve denounced this European appeasement in numerous commentaries. But I summarized my denunciation and presaged what this appeasement portends in “Checkmated on Crimea, Obama Plays for Rest of Ukraine” on March 7, 2014. Europeans appeasing Putin Now comes another case of European appeasement. Germany is refusing to join… Read more.
The Times of London is to the United Kingdom what the New York Times is to the United States: the de facto national newspaper of record. Therefore, when the Sunday edition of the Times of London published a lengthy article – salaciously headlined “The Full Filthy Monte” – on the antics of Prince Albert’s reluctant… Read more.
Regular readers know that I’ve been unsparing in my criticism of Prince Albert II of Monaco – not only for living a notoriously promiscuous lifestyle, but also for fathering children (2 that we know of) out of wedlock. He incited my most indignant ire when he renounced the birthright of his black son in favor… Read more.
Haiti held the Miss Haiti beauty pageant on May 16. But the winner reflects more White hope than Black beauty. I published the blog post “Black Is Beautiful! Just Not in South Africa” a few months ago. In it, I referenced a high schooler who repeated the famous Kenneth Clarke experiment. Clarke’s experiment in 1954 found that Black schoolgirls preferred White… Read more.
Supporters of the right-wing political party, the Alliance for Austria’s Future, are struggling today to come to terms with the public confession of their new leader, Stephan Petzner (right), about the intimate relationship he had with his predecessor and party founder, Joerg Haider (left), who was killed recently in a car crash. Incidentally, if you’ve never… Read more.
Yesterday, President Bush hosted the Mideast Peace Conference in Annapolis, Maryland. I watched in bemusement as the three principals gave opening remarks on the Israeli and Palestinian roadmap to peace. Because anyone could see, this was a classic case of the blind leading the blind. Three blind men on the roadmap Bush is a bona fide lame duck. He’s no… Read more.
Immigration laws: Europe’s new heart of darkness Last week, The Independent dropped a bombshell report on Switzerland’s new immigration laws, exposing their blatant racism and injustice. Reporter Paul Vallely even wondered if Switzerland had become “Europe’s heart of darkness.” Whatever the case, neo-fascism is trending in Switzerland — with politicians competing in a race to the bottom of intolerance. Hell, even during… Read more.
