Islamo Nazis on the march in Canada, and the Canadian authorities are oblivious. Take a look at what happened to author Howard Rotberg.

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.

Robert, thanks so much for the link.

For more on Canada run amuk -- here are some Mark Steyn articles: the first often humorous on the perils of its increasingly socialized government http://www.dennismansfield.com/business/2008/02/im-a-lumberjack.html
and the other on freedom of speech
http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/sterlingtimes/vpost?id=2889506&trail=15#1

Both articles came from Imprimis, a publication by Hillsdale College -- check out free subscription -- but difficult to read their online version, so I copied from secondary sources.

A peaceful Shabbat and good weekend to you and all your readers.
