Iranian President Hassan Rouhani called on Muslims worldwide on Saturday to unite against the United States, instead of “rolling out red carpets for criminals”. Washington in May reimposed sanctions on Tehran, after President Donald Trump pulled out of a 2015 international nuclear deal with Iran under which they had been lifted. “Submitting to the West headed by America would be treason against our religion ... and against the future generations of this region,” Rouhani told an international conference on Islamic unity in Tehran, in a speech broadcast live on state television. “We have a choice to either roll out red...

The prospect that the Obama administration may abstain from a vote at the United Nations condemning America is one of the most astonishing pieces of news we’ve read in weeks. The matter on which it might abstain is the resolution that comes up annually condemning the United States trade embargo of the communistic regime in Cuba. The wire is quoting American officials as saying that the administration is weighing an abstention on the vote. The wire reckons that “merely considering an abstention is unprecedented.” Our current politics have long since crossed the beach beyond which the country is traditionally supposed...

EILAT, Israel – Saudi Arabia is proposing a sweeping deal to Russia that solidifies Moscow’s position in the Middle East and Persian Gulf largely at the expense of the United States, according to informed Egyptian security officials. The deal incorporates increased Russian involvement in Egypt, Syria and the Persian Gulf, and even involves a Saudi guarantee to aid against terror plots targeting the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. The Egyptian officials said the deal seeks to replace the U.S. with Russia as the major weapons dealer to Egypt. However, the weapons sales to Cairo are only the tip of...

Did anyone see "The Project", parts I and II? And we thought communism was bad. How will the cancer of Islam be purged from our nation?

From the beginning of his Presidency, Barack Obama has been criticized for bowing to foreign heads of state. But those missteps are nothing compared to the insult hurled at America by a Chinese pianist in the White House. According to an article at The Blaze, America was humiliated when Lang Lang played the theme from a 1956 Chinese war movie entitled Battle on Shangganling Mountain, a propaganda film from the Korean War. Matthew Robertson writes at The Epoch Times that: Lang Lang the pianist says he chose it. Chairman Hu Jintao recognized it as soon as he heard it. Patriotic...

Here is video of radical leftist William Ayers giving an interview in which he said President Obama is actually a "moderate politician in the American Tradition." Ayers said those on "the Right" refuse to believe that, even though he is truly moderate. Ayers criticized the United States as a "warrior nation" and said he believes the War in Afghanistan is "an invasion and an occupation." Ayers said Obama's decision to send 30,000 additional troops to Afghanistan is a "catastrophe." Ayers was asked if he would advocate planting of bombs to protest the War in Afghanistan even as he did at...

Somehow, I doubt that Russia’s latest diplomatic project will gain much traction with its closest European neighbors, but it does at least expose the Russians as something other than allies to the US. Dmitry Medvedev has called on France and other European nations to form an anti-American front. Nicolas Sarkozy declined direct comment: THE President of Russia has called on Europe’s leaders to create a new world order that would minimise the role of the United States. Confident that a row with Europe prompted by Russia’s invasion of Georgia in August was over, Dmitry Medvedev arrived in the French spa...

Bush and then showing him wearing a yarmulke at the Western Wall. The images are followed with the words, “Our allies. They put us in the line of fire.” The line flashed on the screen ends with a voiceover warning “It is our nation...

The view of the US's role in the world has deteriorated both internationally and domestically, a BBC poll suggests. The World Service survey, conducted in 25 nations including the US, found that three in four respondents disapproved of how Washington had dealt with Iraq. The majority of the 26,381 respondents also disapproved of the way five other foreign policy areas had been handled. Poll findings in more detail The number of those who said the US was a positive influence in the world fell in 18 nations polled in previous years. In those countries, 29% of people said the US...

A projection of the result showed the opposition Radicals, strongest party in Serbia for years, taking 28 percent of the vote, a point higher than the 2003 national elections.

Beware where you spend your money this Holiday season. Founder of The Body Shop and now a consultant to it, Anita Roddick, signed and promoted a letter of an extremist anti-Israel and anti-US Coalition that said Israel had "no justification" for its actions in Lebanon (it does not even mention Hezbollah!). Roddick also joins that same Coalition in vigorously demanding an end to Tony Blair's support of "Bush's War" in Iraq.

CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad shored up opposition to a U.S. drive to curb Iran's nuclear program on a visit to Venezuela on Sunday that cemented an anti-American front with President Hugo Chavez. Ahmadinejad's first trip to Venezuela highlighted Iran's backing for the fellow OPEC country's bid for a U.N. Security Council seat that Chavez would use to challenge Washington's campaign for international sanctions against Tehran. Chavez, who Washington calls a destabilizing, anti-democratic force, cast the visit as two countries jointly defying what he says is the imperialist aggression of the world's only superpower. "Iran is one of...

There is precedent for this. The current satanic president of Iran, President "Tom", was also one of the ringleaders a long time ago of the invasion and occupation (kidnapping) of the American Embassy in Teheran--now he is at the pinnacle of power dealing directly with the USA.One hopes these rabid, anti-US foreign officials with violent pasts, are on the US government's radar when they visit the USA and meet at the White, cleared for top level contact with our own leaders...

Politics: Among the truly astonishing aspects of the Democrats' foreign policy is how much of it comes out of the Vietnam playbook. It's a dark vision, one that anticipates defeat in Iraq. This vision clouds their effort to cobble together their own version of the Republicans' creative "Contract with America," which led to the GOP storming Capitol Hill in 1994. That famous victory ended four decades of legislative domination by the Democrats. Just maybe, Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi figure, this time their party needed only 12 years to retake the fortress. The Senate and House minority leaders...

Peru's dynasty-in-waiting prepares to deliver another anti-US president By Jeremy McDermott in Lima (Filed: 09/03/2006) One of Latin America's most extraordinary political families is poised to produce another of the continent's Left-wing authoritarian leaders with no love for Washington. Ollanta Humala is one of two favourites to become Peru's next president, a role for which, to believe his mother, he has been groomed from birth. Ollanta Humala: ‘I am a nationalist and anti-imperialist’ "We have been preparing our children to take power since they were born," Elena Tasso has said of her eight progeny. "If the boys are not successful...

God forbid critics of the war on Iraq should compare it with the war in Vietnam. But perhaps it is worth mentioning that the liberation of Iraq is now costing more each month than the preservation of the Republic of South Vietnam did more than 30 years ago. As the admitted direct cost of the war reached $250 billion last week -- and the White House asked for $120 billion more on Thursday -- new analyses estimate that the invasion of Iraq could end up costing $2 trillion before it is over. If you remember, the White House's own economic...
