Iranian drone forces US jet to take evasive action, US officials call encounter “unprofessional”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 08, 2017 02:34 pm

“The officials said the drone encounter was considered ‘unsafe and unprofessional.'” How the weakness and pusillanimity of American leadership, and all its impotent schoolmarmish tut-tutting, must amuse the Iranians. “Hitler reoccupies Rhineland — French say it’s ‘unsafe and unprofessional.’” It’s not “unprofessional.” It’s a deliberate and calculated provocation.

By Robert Spencer on Aug 08, 2017 10:10 am

Their outrage is likely feigned. They more likely thrilled than outraged: thrilled that Trump’s silence is enabling them to push their bogus narrative that Muslims are the victims of widespread persecution and harassment in the U.S., and that authorities stand by indifferently (or worse), when in reality they are as unctuously solicitous of the Muslim […]

By Christine Douglass-Williams on Aug 08, 2017 08:14 am

“An Iranian actress, who moved to Sweden after her conversion from Islam to Christianity” is being deported back to Iran. Shame on Sweden.
