The threat from militant Islam is the most hideously difficult of the lot to counter.  It is formed from two parts, that swathe of the Muslim population throughout the world prepared to take up arms against the West via whatever terrorist organisation is to hand, and those rogue states which h...

Hmmmmmm. We honestly can’t decide whether we’ve got good news or bad news today. Moreover, nor can we decide whether it’s genuine “leaked” type “learned by the BBC” information — or purposely (professionally), planted Machiavellian mischievous misinfor...

Having listed, in my preceding post, who I think are the enemies of the West, by which I mean the USA (but as we in Britain ultimately depend  on the USA as our 'ally of last resort', then that includes us as well), I will try and put them into some sort of priority l...

Michael Jackson has finally announced a residency at London’s O2 Arena, two weeks after I reported on the rumors that these concerts were about to be announced. Jackson, Wacko Jacko, or The King Of Pop depending on your point of view will play 10 dates in July, with tickets going on sale on Ma...
