A Danish al-Qaeda recruit turned CIA informant is taking full advantage of the mainstream media’s fascination with his “de-radicalization.” Native-born Danish bad boy Morten Storm set the Internet ablaze after he converted to Islam, got high-fived by al Qaeda, then
Now that we have covered Egyptians want real democracy over Sharia law (Part I of this interview), and Obama’s fluid policies have cemented the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist dictators over Israel, who will rise up to lead Egypt in the

Does political posturing pass as an indictment in Turkey’s judicial system these days? Is Turkish President Recep Tayipp Erdogan using a page from the old Arab League, post-Shah Iranian playbook again? Will Turkey’s poorly-written sequel about an “aid” ship with
It’s true January 19, 2012 just after 8 p.m. EST became a historic day for millions of Americans but for a completely different reason than CNN contributor Roland Martin offered. Martin would have you believe this is the moment the
Somehow, left-leaning journalists just can’t twist the truth enough to put a dent in the campaign of presidential candidate Newt Gingrich. All polls show Gingrich gaining. Yet some are desperately trying to change that. Now, self-professed Palestinian journalist Daoud Kuttab
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayipp Erdogan recently raised eyebrows when he deep-sixed Israeli diplomats from Turkey. But it was his later remarks broadcast on Al Jazeera television that Turkish warships would accompany Turkish aid vessels to Palestinians in the Gaza
