I witnessed first hand in law school in the early 1980s the concerted and planned effort by “Palestinians” to co-opt indigenous rights movements to the anti-Israeli cause.

Scott Brown announced yesterday that he decided not to run for the Senate seat vacated by John Kerry.  While I would have preferred he run, I can’t say I blame him.

Chuck Hagel was an embarrassment yesterday at this confirmation hearing.  John Podhoretz has it right:

Well, as a result of this confirmation hearing — the most disastrous of its kind since another veteran senator, John Tower, blew himself up in his pursuit of the same post back in 1989 — Hagel has...

Why won’t Elizabeth Warren just do a Lance Armstrong on the Cherokee controversy?

Why won’t she just come clean?

Go on Oprah, admit that the claim to be Cherokee was a mistake and that she knew it at the time or at least had serious doubts, but make like it’s not important to who she is as a person.

Her supporters don’t care anyway, and some...

After we called attention to the fact that Elizabeth Warren’s Wikipedia page had been cleansed of its section on her (false) claim to be Cherokee, a vigorous debate took place among editors of Wikipedia since the expungement of the information violated Wikipedia’s rules.

The section was restored, but in a less comprehensive...
