    Middle east - France, Britain to join humanitarian effort in Iraq, says Obama

    Can we expect mass protests in Vienna, Paris and Berlin calling for the protection of the oppressed of Iraq by medieval ISIL? Of course not! Anti-Semites don’t protest real genocide when committed by Muslims. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees says over 1 million have been displaced across Iraqi territory in the last month alone, with over 100,000 Christians, Yazidis, and many Muslims now seeking shelter. International norms require the world make every effort to protect these innocent men and women stranded on Mount Sinjar, regardless of their religion, creed or ethnicity. Thankfully, due to the hard-fought successes of liberal democracies, that standard applies to all peoples, everywhere, including the Jews of Israel and of the diaspora, and the desperate Palestinians of Gaza. Unfortunately for Gazans, they are ruled by a government that, like ISIS, makes no secret of its intention to kill, systematically, on a massive scale. "For our struggle against the Jews is extremely wide-ranging and grave," Hamas' charter reads, "so much so that it will need all the loyal efforts we can wield, to be followed by further steps and reinforced by successive battalions from the multifarious Arab and Islamic world, until the enemies are defeated." Not two weeks ago, Hamas officials called for the killing of all Jews. A xenophobic interpretation of the Quran justifies to some the mass control and killing of men as the will of God.

    Americas - US border crisis: 'The children are refugees, not immigrants'

    What a pathetic story misrepresenting the facts about US illegal immigration! What about the word illegal don't you understand? There is a legal process for immigrating to the USA; repot the facts on how the legal process to immigrate to the USA works, and stop mischaracterizing these illegal immigrants as refugees!

  • Middle east - Episode 4: The Turkish economy, by Dr. Ziya Öniş

    Middle east - Episode 4: The Turkish economy, by Dr. Ziya Öniş

    I have heard it all before. I come from Iceland, what Im hearing here is identical to the nonsense Icelandic politicians, corporate executives and economists where saying few months before utter collapse of the economy. Turkey´s population is so blissfully oblivious of the upcoming economic crisis they are facing, in terms of devaluation of their currency(serious since they are financed short term in foreign currency), housing and construction bubble and private debt bubble. Erdogan is basically arguing with the central bank how to set the interest rates by using examples of the Sharia law, that interest rates should be low since it confirms with muslim theology. If you want to read an interesting insight into the Turkish economy read this:http://www.forbes.com/sites/jessecolombo/2014/03/05/why-the-worst-is-still-ahead-for-turkeys-bubble-economy/
