With Friends Like These (Oil Edition)

June 23, 2010 at 3:47 pm

The indispensable Fars News reports that Iranian Revolutionary Guard members have offered to help Barack Obama with the Gulf oil slick.

From a Turkish rally supporting the Gaza “Freedom Flotilla” and supporting Hamas. The smaller flags on the wires say all you need to know about this unholy alliance. The one in the middle helps too. The text translates as “Hands of Health” It’s not particularly surprising to see the swastika in […]

Remember this Super Soaraway Sun headline from last December? Well, in the words of the Prophet Jagger: “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”, so it’s down to England against Slovenia in the crunch match today. TheEye is, though, looking forward to his regular Wednesday early evening poker game and […]

Ask yourself this question Mr. Obama

June 23, 2010 at 11:28 am

Are you more popular than General Stanley McChrystal? Hhmmm, close one isn’t it? Maybe when you were on the crest of your liberal “yes we can” wave you were, but this man has been slogging it out in the heat & dirt (and that’s just Washington & the Pentagon). Plus […]

In news of amusing incompetence, a group of lefties, fellow-travellers and Islamists tried to blockade a ship owned by Zim Lines, a shipping company is based in Israel, that arrived in Oakland harbour yesterday. Unfortunately for them they picked the wrong ship. The one they protested in front of was actually […]

Vive La France! (Except on Fridays)

June 21, 2010 at 2:51 pm

Last Friday was the 70th anniversary of General Charles de Gaulle’s famous 1940 “Appeal of June 18” from London calling on the French to resist the German occupation of their country. An excellent occasion for a party to celebrate that France is (currently) unoccupied and free, ce n’est pas?  Except […]

A good find by the always entertaining Norton Folgate and spotted via Cato’s place – even Hitler wasn’t impressed by the background noise at the World Cup… As Norton Folgate points out, the locals haven’t absorbed the real teaching moments from Rourke’s Drift.
