24.....Hacksaw Redux - 9 p.m. to 10 p.m.

 One of the most unforgettable moments in the history of 24 was in Season 2 when Jack, wanting to prove his worth to a crime ring involved in a terrorist plot so that he can infiltrate it, kills someone who betrayed the bad guys and, in a casual almost bored voice, tells George, the head of CTU at the time, “I’m gonna need a hacksaw.” When Gredenko had his arm cut off so that the implanted tracking device would be useless in helping CTU following him, every long time 24 fan probably yelled that famous quote at the screen. Read the entire critique of the latest installment here.

If You Like Spinach, Turn Off Your Lights

 Congress is violating the U.S. Constitution on a regular basis, says FSM Contributing Editor Jerry Dieckmann.

Jihadi Circus Begins In Tehran

 If the Iranian regime concludes that British, US and international reactions haven’t generated a strategic response to the sailor kidnapping, they will most likely unleash a second strike and a third strike after that. Tehran's regime wants to crumble its enemies before it is crumbled by its own opposition. As FSM Contributing Editor Dr. Walid Phares explains here, that is the law of conflicts.

Should the Islamic World Apologize For Slavery? – Part Two

 FSM Contributing Editor Adrian Morgan takes us through a fascinating tale of the Islamic slave trade of blacks and Christians throughout history. It was only President Thomas Jefferson’s outright refusal to pay ransoms, an age-old practice, for our citizens-made-slaves that led to war and the capitulation of Algiers followed by Tunis, Tripoli and Morocco announcing that they too had officially abandoned slavery. Liberals in Congress should know this instructive history; perhaps they might learn something from it. Proponents of Islamic slavery, which dates back to the time of Mohammed, have no intentions of going away quietly. Read the entire article here.

 It seems clear that global terrorists won a victory with the election of a Democrat Congress, which has now handed them a timed countdown to American defeat in Iraq.
