Apology of Torture

This story by Yahoo News (via GOP Vixen) is, very likely, a fake. If it was true, though, it would be the best news of the year.

"Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is being made to watch his appearance in cult cartoon South Park while he is behind bars. The deposed leader on trial in Iraq was featured in the movie spin-off as the lover of the devil. South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut featured Hussein and Satan attempting to take over the world together. Speaking at the Edinburgh International Television Festival, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone said US Marines guarding the former dictator during his trial for genocide were making him watch the movie 'repeatedly'. 'I have it on pretty good information from the Marines on detail in Iraq that they showed him the movie last year. That's really adding insult to injury. I bet that made him really happy,' Stone said".

As we said, Parker and Stone were probably joking (and the journalists didn't understand the joke). But we'd love to think that it's a true story: it would be the best and effective form of torture ever used in history.

GOP Surges in Polls

According to the last Gallup/USA Today poll, "support for an unnamed Democratic congressional candidate over a Republican one narrowed to 2 percentage points, 47%-45%, among registered voters". Among "regular voters", the two parties are tied at 48%. In late June, Democrats led by 16 points. This is the worst result for Democrats in the whole 2006. At the same time, President Bush's job approval rose from 37% to 42%: the highest approval rating in six months. USA Today explains the Republican growth as a consequence of "the arrest of terror suspects in London", but other polling firms - like Rasmussen Reports - explains that Democrats started loosing ground "since Ned Lamont defeated Joe Lieberman in the Connecticut Senate primary". In any case, Democrats' hopes for gaining the control of at least one branch of the Congress, in november mid-term elections, seem much smaller than just a few weeks ago.

p.s. To better understand the methodology behind "generic congressional ballots" polls, you can read this old post at Mystery Pollster.

Republicans After 9/11

Mark Davis, columnist for the Dallas Morning News and radio talk show host on the ABC Radio Network, explains - on Real Clear Politics - why Rudolph Giuliani and John McCain are the frontrunners for the GOP presidential campaign in 2008. "GOP voters are laser-locked on the war views of the candidates - he writes - and less compelled by the 'God, guns and gays' issues which have lifted some recent candidacies and destroyed others. (...) This is a good thing. Not that conservative voters should stop caring about past core issues, but some of the topics that have taken up an enormous amount of breath and time at GOP conventions of late are things that just don't have a lot to do with the presidency. (...) The bottom line: it used to be a given that candidates deemed too liberal on some social issues could not compete for the Republican nomination. 9/11 truly did change everything".

All McCain's Men

The New York Times analyzes the network of strategists, policy experts, fund-raisers and donors that John McCain is building up to run for the White House in 2008. It's an impressive team, with advisors like Mark McKinnon, Nicolle Wallace, Gerard L. Parsky, John A. Thain, Terry Nelson, Mike Murphy and many others, from both McCain's presidential bid in 2000 and George W. Bush's campaign in 2000 and 2004. As Gregory Djerejian writes on Belgravia Dispatch, though, some perplexities arise from the field in which McCain is gathering the most known names. It will be hard to elaborate a coherent foreign policy if you have to listen, at the same time, to Colin L. Powell, Brent Scowcroft, Bill Kristol and Robert Kagan.

Lieberman flies (thanks to Republicans)

With a support of 75% among likely Republican voters, Joe Lieberman leads the last Quinnipiac University poll (via Hugh Hewitt) in Connecticut. Lieberman, who runs as Independent after the defeat in the democrat primaries, has a 12% lead (53% versus 41%) over Ned Lamont. He can count on the support of 58% (versus 36%) among Independents and 35% (versus 63%) among Democrats.

The Right Side of Hollywood?

"If we do not succeed in stopping terrorism around the world, chaos will rule and innocent people will continue to die. We need to support democratic societies and stop terrorism at all costs". Actors Michael Douglas, Bruce Willis, Nicole Kidman, Dennis Hopper, Sylvester Stallone, Danny De Vito, Don Johnson, James Woods, Kelly Preston, Patricia Heaton e William Hurt; directors Ridley Scott, Sam Raimi, Tony Scott, Michael Mann e Dick Donner: these are some of the names in a list of 84 Hollywood celebrities who signed a full page advertisement in today's Los Angeles Times newspaper. The ad specifically targets terrorist organisations such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine, and it's unusually harsh (at least for Hollywood standards).

Munich, 2006

"Historians will look back at this weekend's cease-fire agreement in Lebanon as a pivotal moment in the war on terror. It is pivotal in the same sense that the Munich agreement between Adolf Hitler and Neville Chamberlain was pivotal in an earlier battle against the enemies of freedom". Arthur Herman, professor at George Mason University and National Review contributor (and author of one of the few balanced biographies about Joe McCarthy), writes an op-ed for the New York Post that you must read today and remember in the future.

Corruption (and Democrats)

New Jersey State Attorney General, democrat Zulima Farber, stepped down from office after being caught in ethics violation. She is the first New Jersey attorney general in modern history to resign in scandal, but don't expect much exposure on mainstream media: she's not a republican. It's not an isolated case, though, like Gateway Pundit demonstrates in this amazing round-up of previous democratic corruption convictions and scandals (from the past year and a half): from New York to Alabama, from New Mexico to West Virginia.

Rudy Up, Condi Down

Allapundit, on Hot Air, thinks that Rudolph Giuliani is the perfect republican candidate to avoid the "Iraq Syndrome" in the 2008 presidential elections. His theory is enforced by this Rasmussen Reports poll, which puts Giuliani at the exact middle of the political center. While Tammy Bruce's analysis on Condoleezza Rice's failures at the State Department is really harsh, but on some points we just can't disagree.

Hezbollywood/5

If you don't read the newspaper you are uninformed. If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed. (Mark Twain)

"I have been working in lebanon since all this started, and seeing the behavior of many of the lebanese wire service photographers has been a bit unsettling. While hajj has garnered a lot of attention for his doctoring of images digitally, whether guilty or not, i have been witness to the daily practice of directed shots, one case where a group of wire photogs were choreographing the unearthing of bodies, directing emergency workers here and there, asking them to position bodies just so, even remove bodies that have already been put in graves so that they can photograph them in peoples arms. These photographers have come away with powerful shots, that required no manipulation digitally, but instead, manipulation on a human level, and this itself is a bigger ethical problem.".

Freelance Bryan Denton, in a forum dedicated to professional photography (via Hot Air), tells the truth about Hezbollywood. Denton's words, who worked also for New York Times, confirm that "human editing" of pictures used by western mainstream media are not isolated cases, but standard practises used to dramatize the impact of Israeli offensive on civilian population in Lebanon. Little Green Footballs goes deeper. Hot Air adds pictures.

Rudy '08

"You can not negotiate with [terrorists]. These are not people…they have demonstrated to us that they despise us, they hate us, and they want to kill us. They want to kill us because we’re a modern society. They want to kill us because we give women rights. They want to kill us because we have freedom of religion. They want to kill us because we have elected officials. They want to kill us because we’re moderate. And we can’t give that up. What are we going to negotiate away? The rights of women? Are we going to negotiate…set up an Islamic state to make them happy?"

Rudolph Giuliani, on Hannity&Colmes (Fox News). The video is avalaible at Outside the Beltway.

Inconvenient Truth

"If Al Gore is the world's role model for ecology, the planet is doomed". An amazing Peter Schweizer (author of "Do As I Say, Not As I Do"), in an op-ed published by USA Today, kills Al Gore's greenish hypocrisy. A must-read.

ReutersGate/5 - Corriere's Version

Thanks to Aredan (in the comments), we find out that online edition of Corriere della Sera is using the second fake picture by Adnan Hajj to illustrate the usual piece of anti-Israel propaganda from Beirut. We have a screenshot (click on it to enlarge), in case the Italian Jihadists realize their mistake and put the page offline.

Below the picture you can read: "An Israeli F16 is dropping bombs over Israel". Oops... 1) They're not bombs, but flares. 2) Flares were "edited" with Photoshop (as the same Reuters was forced to admit). 3) The picture was taken off by Reuters more than 24 hours ago. 4) Why, in the name of God, an Israeli F16 should drop bombs over Israel? :)
