From Ian:

Genocides, unlike hurricanes, are predictable, says world expert. And Iran is following the pattern

Gregory Stanton, founder of Genocide Watch, says Iran has taken six of the eight steps on path to genocide. But it's not late to follow Canada's preventative lead
"Genocide is neither linear nor "inexorable." It is, rather, predictable and preventable, so long as you recognize the universal signs. And Iran, in its language and action, has taken six of the eight steps on the path to genocide, according to Dr. Gregory Stanton, the world's foremost expert on the matter."

Abbas threatens to step down - Is it that day of the month already?

Iran's crazed gay bashers

Conspiracy is rife in certain sections of Iranian society when it comes to issues such as Israel, the US, and homosexuality. Sadly, mainstream media outlets also play their part
"The ideologues of the Islamic regime in Iran know all too well how to use external enemies to persecute enemies closer to home. According to those in power, the Jews, the Israelis, the United States, and even the West more generally are the causes of Iran's domestic problems."

Daniel Pipes: Islamic violence advances Shariah law

"Western civilization in the balance: Islamist aspirations grow with improved communications and weakened Middle Eastern governments, ultimately posing an existential question for Westerners: Will we maintain our historic civilization against their challenge, or will we accept Muslim dominion and a second-class dhimmi status?"

Muslims Continue Showing Respect for Other People's Religion

"That's why when Muslims in Lebanon protested by tearing down posters of Pope Benedict, they were respecting religion. And when they rioted on the Jewish Temple Mount, more respect for religion. And when Muslims deface the Star of David, the symbol of the name of King David, a man they claim to consider a prophet, that's just more respect for religion. With so much Muslim respect for religion out there, it's hard to know if we can take any more."

Hamas Calls for Abbas to Resign After he says Israel Founded to 'Remain'

CAIR Rep: Violence Shows It's America That Needs to Change

Anti-American violence throughout the Muslim world, ostensibly over a cheap Internet film denigrating the Muslim prophet Muhammad, may be misguided, but it's a result of "the lack of dignity, the lack of respect that they're being shown." And it's up to America to change policies to calm things.

Honest Reporting: Israeli Cruise Review Sinks in Ocean of Garbage

Plus, how Chinese describe the difference between how Jews and Chinese do business:

The difference between Jewish and Chinese people: A Jew opens a gas station in some place and business is very good. Then a second Jew comes along and opens a restaurant, and then third Jew opens a supermarket, and the place very quickly prospers. When a Chinese person opens a gas station and business is very good, the second Chinese will definitely open a second gas station, and then the third, the fourth… Competition is vicious and it's no fun for anybody.
