From the WSJ: Anyone who still thinks a nuclear-armed Iran won’t pose a serious, and perhaps mortal, threat ought to consult this week’s bipartisan staff report from the House Intelligence Committee. Drawing on open-source information and mindful of classified background, the report lays out the history of Iranian nuclear deception and its attempts to promote trouble throughout the Middle East. It notes that “Iran probably has an offensive biological weapons

Teheran’s apparent refusal to suspend uranium enrichment set the stage for a showdown at the UN Security Council later this month. The United States said Wednesday that a proposal by Iran for nuclear negotiations

A number of people have contacted me privately about Deb Frisch’s reported arrest of a few days ago.  So far as we can determine at this time, that arrest in Eugene is unrelated to Frisch’s actions concerning my family and me. Also for the record:  pulled pork sandwiches for lunch are so decadent and naughty that it’s almost like eating a big bunful of Satan.  Not at all related, I

In a lengthy piece in the WSJ, Norman Podhoretz says not so fast: In recent months, we have been bombarded with reports of the death of the Bush Doctrine.

Almost all of them were written by the

My new show for Hot Air—“The CITIZEN JOURNALIST REPORT w/ Jeff Goldstein”—will debut on Friday (not tomorrow, as was previously mentioned) and will stay up on the Hot Air site (and maybe YouTube) over the weekend. To you, this means absolutely nothing, really.  To me, however, it means three days of humiliation rather than one.  Which, well—that’s what you get for not accepting Jesus Christ as your personal savior, I

Or maybe he just doesn’t like some snooty fop telling him which wine goes with which foods. Whatever it was, the one thing we can safely rule out is unprovoked terrorism and allegiance to an ideology that is both totalitarian and colonial.  Because, well, that’s just a myth.

At 3:05 PM EST.  Today’s guests include Jim Pinkerton, Jim Geraghty, and Mary Katherine Ham.  Or as I like to call them, Pinky and the Brain—and that one saucy conservative chick from Townhall who Allahpundit likes to think about to keep himself from despairing too much over Israel’s imminent demise.
