"Nobody Gets Married Any More, Mistah..."
Do you live with your children?
Perhaps one of the most awful questions I've read in print in a long time.

Egypt
I say it looks good on them.
I'm not particularly concerned or even interested.
It's not like Egypt is going to turn into a democracy or anything remotely close to a democracy. This turmoil is going to lead to a Muslim brotherhood state. Yes-you read that right, another radical Islamic state in the Middle East, right beside Israel and with lots of oil revenue at its disposal.
The Muslim Brotherhood does not seem to me as much of an existential threat to Israel as Iran (with nukes). They are not the same brand of Shiia-12th Imam crazy as Eichmedinejad.
I think they will quite enjoy being Islamic fat cat royalty, just like the many princes of the Kingdom of Saud.
They will fund terrorist operations and radical mosques everywhere, and then they will start to eat their own people alive-such as dictators and radical terrorist thugs are wont to do.
Have you noticed any women on the streets? Fat chance. This is another symbol of what is in store for the people of Egypt.
Sorry to say that I'm thinking the same thing about Tunisia.
I don't particularly care about them either.
I'm also pretty sick of mealy mouthed supposedly "conservative" people waxing on about how it's not like Islam cannot be compatible with democracy ('look at Turkey'). Sorry-Turkey is not a democracy. Or they site good old "moderate" Malaysia as an example. Give me a break. Some of the wackiest Islamic fatwas of the past decade have come out of Malaysia. And Turkey is turning into an Islamic dump that will soon rival Pakistan.
These mealy-mouthed "conservative" remind me of the idiot faux socialists who still claim that communism and socialism are wonderful systems "in theory", but 'they just don't work in practice'.
If it doesn't work in practice, as all scientists know-you have to go back to the theory-which is faulty.
It is the same thing with Islam in democracy. In theory-in some far off utopia, there will be an Islamic democracy, in some Neverland where unicorns fart natural gas and you always get free stuff forever or something like that.
I have seen absolutely no evidence to suggest that Islam is compatible with democracy. In fact, there is more evidence to indicate that being a believing Muslim creates direct conflict with democratic Western living. In those cases, the devout unabashedly side with Sharia.
What are we to make of that?
Could it not be that there is a reason why we have yet to see an Islamic democracy is as simple as the fact that there cannot be such a thing?
It is not that some people living in Sharia countries do not want freedom-many might, but allegiance to Sharia is not compatible with allegiance to the democratic rule of law. Look at the UK.
Many immigrants from Muslim countries want Western conveniences and toys but still to be governed by Sharia. We have better stuff and a better life, but the reality of Muslim demographics could really change our way of living.
Look at France. How long do you think it will be until the French Muslims demand Sharia enclaves (official, not the unofficial ones they already have). How long do you think it will take before they just vote in enough people to enact that legislative change by themselves? It would not be the first time in recent history that democratic institutions were used to usher in totalitarianism. It is happening before our eyes.
I'm much more sympathetic to Iran, where I think that democracy is a real possibility. The Shiia crazies are not the majority of the people and the thugs are ever more nervous about going down. The young people are gutsy, still taking risks every day.
Unfortunately, the Iranians have no Reagan in the US right now. They have a Carter II (or worse).
Us haters will still continue to sound the alarm bells.
We who object to the voluntary Islamification of the world are vilified and ostracized, but I plan to continue to take my lumps and call it as I see it.
Becoming A Fantatic in the UK
I think that point is quite significant. Despite being of the second generation, radical Islam was more attractive to her husband, and who knows how many others.
They do not want Western lives, they want Sharia lives in Western countries, and then to make Sharia the law of the land in the West.

Damn, Wish I Had Thought of That First...
Here's Rex Murphy on growing up in Newfoundland 50 or so years ago.
He laments the Oprah-style "emotional incontinence" of today.
DAMN. Wish I had thought of that deadly phrase-but I am surely going to liberate it.

Abe Foxman Must Go!
And all the disgusting leftist Jews who lead their moronic alphabet soup, "We Jews Are Scared of Black Magic Markers and Swastikas" and "See No Islamic Evil" organizations.
The comments are amazing-read them all.
Nice!
Here's something that is just plain nice.

What Kind of Vegetation Grows On Muslims?
Hat tip: Kate the Great.
It's The Demographics, Stupid.
This was mostly because he had the nerve-as some dirty, uppity dhimmis do, of talking about the dangers of Muslim demographics and the Western world.
Imagine that!
Well, it's very interesting nowadays.
After being villified for writing things like (gasp!) facts about the declining birth rate in the Western world, the lack of replacement rate childbirth in our countries, suddenly, mainstream media publications and lefty huggy feely 'think tanks' and such are coming to Steynian conclusions.
After being dragged through the Human Rights Kangaroo Courts, and having his livelihood threatened by "human rights" mandarins and the Earnest Joke Evaluation Committee, the mainstream media is getting its Steyn on.
This means only one of two things.
Either Steyn and other "haters" are-how shall I put this..."right", or the world is coming to an end.
Actually, it could very well be both.
Here's the very, very Steyny stuff.
And remember, this is Pew information, being reported in the Globe & Mail (the "New York Times wannabe here in Canada").
"In Europe, the number of Muslims is projected to exceed 58 million by 2030, up from 44.1 million in 2010. The biggest increases will likely occur in France, Germany and the Netherlands"[ed note-Eurabia is doomed]
"But perhaps the most visible increase, Mr. Cooperman said, will take place in North America, where immigration, fertility rates and the relatively youthful age of the Muslim population will cause the population to grow quickly compared to its relatively small base"
"The sudden growth is partly explained by a higher fertility rate among Muslim Canadians, and the large percentage who are approaching their child-bearing years."
So there you have it.
The time really has come to have a frank discussion about who we let into this country and whether or not we are prepared to say that we do not wish to be demographically overwhelmed by immigrants from countries with sharia-based laws, where women are treated worse than animals and where gays are slaughtered just for being gay.
The people who come from these countries are not democratically minded. They are tribal. They hate Jews and all other infidels. They celebrate our deaths and think we are filthy infidels.
We have to say-sorry, we do not want any more people from places where fathers and brothers and mothers collaborate to murder female relatives who have "shamed" the family, necessitating the barbarians to purify the family honour through blood sacrifice of their children.
I'm saying it.
Are you saying it?
Will anyone listen?
Jason Kenney-I'm looking at you!
