  • By Selwyn Duke The side that defines the vocabulary of a debate, wins the debate. So goes the theme of an old book I’ve often cited, The Tyranny of Words. Examples would be if the media routinely called pro-gun-control people “anti-freedom” or pro-abortion individuals “pro-death.” Mainstream journalists don’t do that, of course — but they do use…

  • By Selwyn Duke If you thought your tax money was just used to fly illegal aliens into our nation’s interior and house them in pricey hotels, think again. Some of it is also now being used, apparently, to attempt to buy migrants acquittals in our justice system. This is the obvious conclusion after at least…

  • By Selwyn Duke One critic calls it the “Islamic conquest of the West.” Others say it’s a sign of a collapsing West. But on the heels of a story about European churches removing crosses to accommodate Muslim migrants comes another in the same vein: Some German primary schools and daycare centers are renaming a traditional…

  • Selwyn Duke While Islamic terrorists in various parts of the world are burning churches and executing Christians, crosses are being removed from some European churches — by church officials themselves. And it’s being done in deference to Muslim sensibilities. Read the rest here.

Describing himself as an…

  • By Selwyn Duke We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe — without swords, without guns, without conquest — will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades,” said late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi in an April 2006 speech. While his estimate of…

  • By Selwyn Duke Jeb Bush has called illegal migration “an act of love.” And all over the West we see nations being loved to death, with endless human waves from Third World countries washing ashore. The results were predictable and are now plain: balkanization, riots, ethnic and racial strife and no-go areas in European lands.…

  • By Selwyn Duke Multiculturalists are fond of saying, “We’re a nation of immigrants” when the United States is actually, as is any healthy country, a nation of citizens. But if current trends continue, we may become a land of disparate and divided immigrants and not really a nation, which involves far more than a political…
