Very impressive Chinese cities, but where are the people? by Dave Hodges As ISIS is rampaging across Iraq and Syria, Ebola is on the loose and the flames of civil discontent are spreading across the United States, the country stands at a crossroads.

ISIS: Made in Washington, Riyadh – and Tel Aviv

by Justin Raimondo, The Islamic State in Syria (ISIS) is being touted as the newest “threat” to the American homeland: hysterics have pointed to Chicago as the locus of their interest, and we are told by everyone from the President on down that if we don’t attack them – i.e. go back into Iraq (and even venture into Syria) to root them out – they’ll soon show up on American shores.

by Ann Corcoran A reader from Australia just sent me this website (which we will add to our blogroll) and recommended we read it from time to time. We will. I picked this recent post to give you a taste of what is happening Down Under with its ever-expanding Muslim immigrant (refugee!) population. Our Australian reader is not optimistic about Australia’s long-term survival. I had just been thinking this morning about a new category for RRW—So, what did they expect?
