We [Americans] choose not to understand the world on terms other than our own.

The extremes to which Western elites will go to avoid blaming radical Islam for terrorism cripples our efforts to protect innocent Muslims. Terrified of offending butchers, we insist that we're the bigots, not them. We make excuses for monsters.

Our president seems determined to do anything he can with the Russians and the Russians hate - but a report and hates us. He is malevolent and he is as close to pure evil as I can find.

We should be strengthening our alliance with democracies instead of trashing nato we should be building it up much more strongly.

A soldier's longing to talk about his experiences of battle is a wound that never heals.
