Or that the same Hanson would have announced recently, in grandiose terms, the prospective launch of an American Islamic institution of higher education to be called Zaytuna College, and aimed at becoming a "Muslim Georgetown" in academic prestige? "Shaykh Hamza," as he prefers to be known, achieved so high a rank among the "Top...

As seen live on NBC’s Today Show shortly after 9:00 a.m. EDT this morning, Jim and Sarah Brady have openly started to exploit media coverage of the national Reagan state funeral service to promote renewal of the 1994 Federal “Assault Weapons” Ban (AWB).

Sarah Brady kept reiterating past reports that Reagan strongly...

The Eritrean Foreign Ministry released a statement which said it totally rejected the state department's position, and called on it to refrain from unwarranted intervention. But the statement also contains some surprises, with the government...
