I just read a crazy essay from Tunku Varadarajan writing for Forbes.com. The link to Varadarajan’s essay was from a Heritage Foundation e-newsletter that I receive (a full disclosure moment).
Varadarajan reports on the grisly and totally unjust treatment of a seventeen year old girl whose crime was pronounced as adultery.
Apparently the only evidence of adultery is that a married male was alone with the girl as the male went about perform his profession, i.e. an electrician.
As you read Varadarajan’s report, you should take some time to deeply ponder what Sharia Law could be doing as more and more Western governments validate its practice in their nations as part of the rule of law.
Michael Ledeen has written an essay entitled “Iran and the Problem of Evil.” Now it is obvious the title corresponds to the saber rattling that has been occurring between Iran versus the USA and Israel.
The thing Ledeen successfully accomplishes in the essay is not focusing on Iran as the evil. Ledeen quite matter-of-factly includes the radical Sunnis and Shi’ites together as a movement that is evil and threatening to the West’s existence.
Ledeen quite nicely condemns the political leaders of the West of the same moronic stupidity that was in the air when Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy publicly pronounced what their agenda was while the Democratic West viewed it all as the ravings of evil political leaders that not only had no bite to their bark but could not believe sane political leaders would embark on creating a war that would mean the deaths of millions.
The just could not see past their idealistic noses.
