Is the Sun Setting on the US Middle East pseudo-Empire? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After World War II, the sun finally began to set on the British Empire. Two world wars had beaten much of the imperial ambition out of the British and, more importantly, had come close to bankrupting them. Britain emerged victorious but exhausted.

The Jewelry Libel (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jew haters’ favorite sport is to lie about Jews. They have to because there is no rationale behind their spiteful, envious enmity.One of their spiteful canards is that jewelry is named after Jews. This is yet another way The etymology of the word jewelry (or jewellery) traces its roots back to classical Latin, where it originally meant a "plaything," "toy," or "jest."
