Weekend Roundup
And you thought Germany was a different country. Thanks to Marc Shulman and his excellent blog, American Future, for bringing this to my attention.
I guarantee that The Assistant Village Idiot does not teach at one of our Ivy League Universities. He's way too smart and down to earth. Here he lays out The Social Virtues of Capitalism.
If you want to know what's going on with Iran's nuclear policy don't read the pacifict and clueless NY Times. Instead turn to The Strat-Sphere. His analysis is dead-on.
And from The Gates of Vienna, an incredible blog I was not aware of until this weekend, The New Kristallnacht.
Meanwhile, children writing letters to our fighting soldiers are not what you would expect. Read this and weep. Thanks to Sundries Shack for posting.
Watcher of Weasels has chosen my blog Murderous Peaceniks as one of their blogs of the week. I thank them.

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.
1. No profanity.2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism. That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
Shavua Tov!!
I would also add Little Geen Footballs to the mix of blogs one should turn to if you are looking for real news and not the pablum that the MSM spew on a daily basis.
We need to pay very close attention to Iran. I think it is very similar to the rise of Nazi Germany. Everyone hopes they can contain them with useless sanctions and "strongly worded statements", in hopes the mullahs will decide to play nicely.
Hopefully the world wont make a 1930's like mistake again.

Shavua Tov. Yes, Little Green Footballs is excellent. I didn't include it because it's so well known. I try to steer my readers to blogs that might be a bit more obscure.
As for Iran. No sane person should doubt the seriousness of their nuclear threat. The MSM dismisses the "annihilate Israel" pronouncements as "political immaturity."
Sure.
When Islamic Jihadists threaten my people with genocide I take it very seriously. The Jihadists do not make idle threats.

What great blogs, Robert! Many thanks. I particularly enjoyed a post on Gates of Vienna describing how the West is in yet another phase of a religious war, being waged by Jihadists, which has been going on for centuries.
Does Europe have the resolve to stand up to this threat the way they have in the past? I truly don't know.
