The WSJ carries a discussion of the "the apocalyptic worldview of Iran's present rulers."
DANIEL PIPES writes about Sudden Jihad Syndrome, as evidenced by the Seattle murder on July 28th.
Just yesterday I pointed out that the Muslim leadership has never staged a "peace vigil" or a rally or a march to protest Hezbollah and Hamas killings of Israeli civilians, despite all the years and years that's been going on. Evidently the Muslim leaders here have no objection to Hezbollah and Hamas killings of civilians.
And the Muslim leaders have yet to stage a "peace vigil" or a rally or a march to protest this evil murder in Seattle, done in the name of the Muslim community.
Maybe I should put up a counter on this website: "### Days Without a Muslim Rally Protesting the Killing of Civilians in the Name of Islam."
RE: ENERGY INDEPENDENCE: There's a biofuel called E85, that's only 15% gasoline, costs under $2 a gallon, and can run in existing cars with little modification.
There's continued excitement 'mongst the automakers and farm state folks over E85, a fuel that blends 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline as an alternative technology. (Much cheaper than developing new engines, because this fuel requires little modification of existing cars.)
Advocates say it's cleaner and, at about $1.79 a gallon, much cheaper than regular gasoline. And it's made from plants in the U.S.A., not the Middle East. Remember the famous "switch grass" suggestion in President Bush 's State of the Union address?
