| In the brand new Mondays with Trump segment of Fox & Friends, potential Republican candidate for President and consistent headline seeker Donald Trump called in and shared his thoughts on the latest topics in the news. Proving that anything goes in the segment, Trump discussed everything from promoting Celebrity Apprentice in one moment, to his plans for Iraqi oil in the next. Trump spoke highly about Republicans Paul Ryan and John Boehner and their efforts to get the federal budget under control. Yet on a lighter and more entertaining note, Trump commented on reports that Oprah Winfrey desires having him... |

| Iran 'the victor in war on terror' By David Blair (Filed: 24/08/2006) Iran has replaced America as the most influential foreign power inside Iraq, seizing an opportunity created by the war against terrorism, a report says. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad The turmoil unleashed by the invasion of Iraq gave Teheran the chance to fill the void left by Saddam Hussein's downfall, says the survey from the Royal Institute of International Affairs, in London. It says that Iran has bought influence by sponsoring parties representing the Shia majority, about 60 per cent of the population. By manipulating these allies, it has... |
Think or DieThe Importance of Being Earnest (With Yourself)

| College students are persistently imbued with the idea that it is fashionable to be anti-establishment. But a tangible definition of the establishment is never given; its often idly expressed as the middle-America lifestyle; a wife, 2.3 children, a house with a white picket fence, and a nine-to-five job. But regardless as to how students conceptualize the establishment, the idea is vague at best, and leaves youth helplessly rebelling against an obscurity, for the purpose of mere non-conformity. To be exact, the establishment is any individual or group of individuals who discontinue thought, which can be done either consciously or subconsciously.... |
Success vs. Merit

| We might say that success is a hideous thing. Its false similarity to merit deceives men. To the masses, success has almost the same appearance as supremacy. Success, that pretender to talent . . . This quotation, said by Victor Hugo in Les Miserables, tells us that the good and the popular may not always be one in the same. I am sure that we have all heard messages such as this from half-baked after school specials and the like. But the fundamental principles of this issue run much deeper than is commonly thought. The good life requires that we... |

| Mark Derian Interviews a Local, Anonymous Sage Mark Derian: Sage, you have mentioned before the importance of reading both fiction and nonfiction. Which one, do you think, is more important? Sage: I dont know that. MD: But most writers stick to one format, as if the one they choose is the most important. Sage: Yeah, most writers do that. I think when those writers were younger, they experienced a stronger emotional reaction to one or the other, and thats the one they stuck with. But thats just speculation, I could be wrong. MD: So both formats are equally valid as... |
Anti-Americanism (Interview with Stanley Kurtz, Dan Flynn, Paul Hollander, Victor Davis Hanson)

| Anti-Americanism continues to grow more powerful and to mutate into increasingly bizarre and pathological forms. After 9/11, masses of people from all over the world not only celebrated Americas tragedy, but even blamed the victims rather than the perpetrators for the terrorist attacks. As the Bush administration attempts to build a coalition against Saddam Hussein, it becomes evident that the American Presidents efforts are frustrated by the vehement strain of anti-Americanism in the international environment. And lets not kid ourselves: anti-Americanism is no dying force in America itself. To be sure, members of the fifth column in the U.S., led... |

| Others may have sympathized on learning that Hamid Dabashi, a professor of Middle East studies at Columbia University, felt threatened by a graduate student at his own university, but not me. The incident began late on Sept. 27, 2004, when Victor Luria, a Ph.D. candidate in genetics and a former soldier in the Israel Defense Forces, wrote Dabashi an e-mail taking strong exception to what Dabashi had written about the IDF in an article, "For a Fistful of Dust: A Passage to Palestine," he published in the Egyptian newspaper, Al-Ahram. In response, Luria wrote to Dabashi: I have rarely seen... |
The [Election] Fear Factor

| After talking with some left-wing friends this weekend, I realized now more than ever that the question of whether to vote for Bush or Kerry truly boils down to another question, A war for our lives, or a nuisance to our lifestyle? The later question was asked on Friday by eminent historian Victor David Hanson. He answers it with honesty and erudition, but leaves out a very important point: the fear factor. Hanson correctly identifies Kerry et als penchant for wanting to solve our foreign policy disputes through diplomatic bureaucracy ad nauseum -- e.g., the United Nations. He hints at... |
