His
lawyer claimed that he was entrapped by an undercover agent. So try a
thought experiment: what if you were approached by an undercover agent,
who tried to cajole you into plotting to commit mass murder? What could
he offer you as an incentive? At what point would you agree? The big
hole in all […]

Bergdahl
should be tried for treason. Obama should be investigated in order to
determine how much of this he knew before he traded the Taliban jihadis
for Bergdahl, and if necessary, tried as well. But that won’t happen. A
teary-eyed Boehner will explain that the five jihadis just had to be
traded for Bergdahl, and […]

Now
that it has been revealed that Nigerian generals have been arming this
bloodthirsty group, it is clearer why they have been able to operate
with such impunity in Nigeria, and continue to do so. But neither the
mainstream media nor the leaders of the great nations of the West dare
to consider the implications […]

On Sun TV today I discussed the ominous implications of the U.S. endorsement of the PLO/Hamas unity government.

Sareer
Fazili, President of the Islamic Center of Rochester, said, “Our
religion is one of peace and one of submission and I think all of our
friends in the faith based community know that.” He added: “I’m very
shocked, I’m very upset, very disappointed that somebody who claims they
follow Islam, the same religion that […]

In
FrontPage today I discuss how the Bergdahl prisoner exchange defied
intelligence reports and endangers Americans. When he announced the
exchange of five Guanatamo detainees for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who had
been held by Islamic jihadists in Afghanistan since 2009, Barack Obama
declared that the swap was “a reminder of America’s unwavering
commitment to leave […]

Obama
must have known all this. And that makes his agreeing to this deal —
one that endangers American troops in Afghanistan — all the more
questionable. There ought to be a full investigation — a fearless one,
free of Boehner tears and timidity. “Special forces found Bergdahl and
captors but wouldn’t risk rescue for […]

This
helps explain why Boko Haram has been able to operate with impunity,
and the Nigerian government has appeared to be unable or unwilling to
stop it. If Muslims at high levels of the government sympathize with the
group, they may have been able to stymie attempts to stop it. “Report:
10 generals guilty of […]

Over
at Catholic.com I discuss the frequently-repeated claims that Boko
Haram is violating Islamic law: One thing we know about Boko Haram, the
Nigerian terrorist group that has appalled the world by abducting and
enslaving 300 schoolgirls, is that what it has done is completely
contrary to the tenets of Islam. Or at least that’s […]

Obama
must have known all this. If he didn’t, he is inexcusably careless. If
he did, he is something far, far worse. “Wartime messages to parents,
fellow soldiers reveal troubled Bergdahl,” FoxNews.com, June 3, 2014:
Email exchanges between Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl and his parents,
statements from fellow GIs and a purported letter he left […]

“Obama
said it doesn’t matter how Bergdahl ended up with the Taliban” — at
this point, what difference does it make? What difference does it make
that we just sent back into battle against the U.S. five senior enemy
commanders, in return for a man who is likely to be a traitor and
deserter? “Obama […]

In
Aleteia today I discuss the strange case of Bowe Bergdahl, which is
something straight out of Showtime’s “Homeland.” The Obama
administration’s narrative about the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who
had been held by the Taliban-linked Haqqani network since the summer of
2009, began to unravel almost immediately. The shadowy Taliban leader
Mullah Omar […]

From
Gateway Pundit: Colonel David Hunt told Bill O’Reilly tonight that Bowe
Bergdahl was a deserter. “Bowe Bergdahl was a deserter. Bergdahl on
June 20, 2009 crawled underneath a wire at his fire base with water,
food, a change of clothes, a knife and a cell phone. He called his unit
the day after he […]
