  • Reflections on Islam (updated 12jan15)

    George Rebane The pen is mightier than the sword only to the extent that it can evoke more powerful swords. As millions of others on this planet, my thoughts have turned to Islam and its role in the ongoing global reign of terror exemplified again by the slaughter in Paris last week.  These reflections have…

  • Scattershots – 4jan15 (updated 8jan15)

    George Rebane Legalization of marijuana (MJ).  Now that California begins its statewide march toward legalizing MJ, it is noteworthy to look at the path such initiatives have forged for our forebears Washington and Colorado.  In both states the ‘leakage’ of medical MJ (MMJ) into recreational MJ (RMJ) markets is now rampant.  Both states’ taxes on…

  • Happy ‘Heckler’s Veto’ for 2015 (updated)

    George Rebane For years RR has documented the sad retreat of our fundamental rights and liberties, the withdrawal of which has not caused many an eyebrow to be raised among the country’s gruberized hosts.  Instead, it has given rise to celebrations of every newly minted political correctness by our neighbors on the Left – for…

  • The Pyongyang Censors

    George Rebane President Obama correctly chastised Sony for not releasing ‘The Interview’, its comedy critical of the North Korean tyranny and its idiot dictator.  And the FBI has now formally identified North Korea as the hacker that initially embarrassed Sony by releasing its internal memos to the world.  And now it has again embarrassed the…

  • ‘Our Best Days Lie Ahead’

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 December 2014.] ‘Our Best Days Lie Ahead.’  How many times have we heard some politician or public figure repeat those words into a microphone while looking at a sea of bright-eyed upturned faces?  This claim is almost never backed up…

  • Islamophobia 2.0 (updated 4jan15)

    George Rebane Reports from Sydney (here) are the latest addition to a new dimension of threats from the world of Islam.  We have seen in Canada, the UK, the US, and now Australia how self-radicalized Muslims are emerging from the commonly viewed ‘moderate Islamic communities’ to plan and commit acts of jihadic terror in their…

  • High Tech Quotas (updated 12dec14)

    George Rebane Our high tech industry is literally the last refuge of employment meritocracy, and the increase in our quality of life it has provided is unquestionable.  That may all be coming to an end if our so-called civil rights leaders like Jesse Jackson have their way.  You see Jesse and his crew have noticed…

  • Bad News Presidency Continues

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast of 19 November 2014.] Last night, after six years of delays, Dirty Harry finally brought the Keystone XL pipeline vote to the floor of the Senate where it failed to pass by one vote.  This vote has been put off for more hokey…

  • Ruminations – 9nov14 (updated 12nov14)

    George Rebane The Berlin Wall came down 25 years ago today.  Many people are celebrating that milestone in human history, but Vladimir Putin rues the day as the beginning of greatest human tragedy of the 20th century which ended the horrors of the USSR and its spreading of international communism.  As a young lieutenant stationed…

  • The Chaos Upon Us

    George Rebane People of a shared ethnicity individuate tactically and aggregate strategically. The future described in these pages over the last several years is coming true in spades.  The prime forces acting in accidental synchrony are the rampant advance of technologies, and the profoundly incompetent Obama administration that now rules through a camarilla of perfidious…
