[United Against Islamic Supremacism] Islamic Saudi Academy Research - Part II: In March 2006, the Saudi Embassy in Washington published a report summarizing efforts by the Saudi government to revise the state curriculum and a number of school textbooks to exclude language promoting religious intolerance.12 Nevertheless, non-governmental organizations from outside Saudi Arabia continue to report the presence of highly intolerant and discriminatory language, particularly against Jews, Christians, and Shi’a Muslims, in educational materials published by the Ministry of Education.13 It was these very kinds of contradictory assessments that the Commission sought to learn more about during its visit to Saudi Arabia.

[Freedom Bloggers] Gates of Vienna News Feed 2/17/2009: I recently spent three full days discussing this topic at the World Economic Forum in Davos and my feeling is that the rationality and the economic science have been suppressed or forgotten. The very unpleasant, day by day deeper economic crisis should be accepted as a standard economic phenomenon, as an unavoidable consequence and hence a “just” price we have to pay for the long-term playing with the market by the politicians.

[Panarabism's Blog] Pan-Arabism, Arabism, is Racism!: Alcohol was prohibited during school events and student parties, and although a school official claimed the ban reflected Middlebury’s campus policy, beer and wine flowed freely during cookouts and gatherings organized by the German, French, and Spanish schools. Banning alcohol is a matter of Islamic practice and personal interpretation–not accepted behavior throughout the Middle East–and reflected the Arabic school’s conflation of Arabic with Islamic.

[BBC Blog Network] BBC - The Editors: Obama's Afghanistan strategy: The only real complaint that could be registered against any of the moderators on any of the sights is this, if a compliant were registered, or a comment was not posted, if there were some way to notify the poster of the (specific) reason not just it violated policy, so a correction could be made and a re-posting be allowed with added corrects.

[Comments for Open Source] Open Source » Blog Archive » Pitch a Show: November 2006: Do you realise that in the state of california alone the workers compensation insurance debacle cost us over 3 billion dollars, and that was data from the nineties…If that, and every states current medical budget for work comp, etc were just rolled into the new national health care, and the lawyers and the judges were allowed to do legal cases, in other words they were only involved when a law was broken, and we put doctors and other trained care providers back in charge of medical care, there would be a huge portion of the cost covered right there.

[Pajamas Media] Pajamas Media » Obamatopia: Like most of you, I too, would have preferred a REAL American President instead of a Real ANTI-American one, but the bottom line is that we will need to expect Obama to cozy more with the Chavez, Casttos, Noriegas, Europeans in General, Muslims, etc and all those folks rather than with Americans; Obama is a leftist, he is a socialist and more a person on that side of the pond than within our borders.
