Europe Migration
Europe is being flooded with illegal immigrants. So far this year 2,400 have died at sea.
Many are Syrian war refugees. Last week in Austria a truck was found packed with 70 dead migrants. It’s believed they suffocated.
French Train Heroes
Two off duty U.S. soldiers and a student subdued, and beat the crap out of, an armed terrorist on a French bullet train. The three are being treated as heroes and were awarded a medal by the French government. One is also being treated for wounds.
The gunman’s alibi? He’s no terrorist. He’s a train robber.
Appeasing the Hard Cases
President Obama hopes that Iran will be a very successful regional power by the time it becomes a nuclear power. Victor Davis Hansen thinks appeasing the world’s hard cases has a poor track record.
Export / Import
Boeing and GE have stopped contributing to politicians who oppose the Export / Import Bank. Both companies get subsidized loans from the bank to help them export their products. No stranger to crony capitalism, GE CEO Jeff Immelt threatened to move jobs out of the country if th Ex/Im is closed. Imelt moonlights as Obama’s Jobs Czar.
Knee Jerk Partisan
The President of the U.S. said this week that anyone opposed to his Iran deal is a “knee jerk partisan no different than those who say Death to America”.
His negotiating partner, the supreme leader of Iran, says, “Death to America“.
Rich Lowry says the deal isn’t a treaty because a treaty requires a two thirds vote in the Senate for approval. This deal is rigged to require a two thirds vote for disapproval.
Apparently Chuck Schumer now says, “Death to America!”
