The Tirades of Turkey’s Tyrant

What might Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan be driving at during his private “interminable monologues” with Pope Leo XIV, wonders Fiamma Nirenstein in Jewish News Syndicate. The Pope, no doubt, wants to avert a Third World War and sees Turkey as a bridge between West and East. But having embraced Islamism and purged Turkey of nearly all its 4 million Christians, Nirenstein writes, the Turkish tyrant appears ever-less amenable to that role.

Following an “Allahu-Akbar”-yelling Afghan’s shooting of two National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. – one of whom subsequently died – Ammon Blair in UnHerd lauds President Donald Trump’s planned “permanent pause” on immigration from “Third World” countries.

Communism Through Rose-Tinted Glasses

Marxists are often chided for prizing theory over reality, but Kevin Schmiesing’s assessment in Law & Liberty of Andrew Hartman’s 550-page Karl Marx in America finds this author largely does the opposite.

This in turn blinds Hartman to the key question: why did Communism never really catch on in America?

Inhuman for Criminals, the Luck of the Draw for You and Me

The EU may have banished the “‘inhuman,’ ‘degrading,’ and ‘irreversible’” death penalty for criminals, writes Frank Haviland in The European Conservative – but its member states’ soft-on-crime, easy-on-illegal-immigrants policies are making violent death an increasingly common fate for innocent Europeans. In a world gripped by barbarian forces, writes Haviland, it’s time for Great Britain to hold a national referendum on restoring an older form of justice.
