A depraved culture supports a depraved politics and vice versa.
Ilana Mercer
Mistaking Palestinian military weakness for moral innocence seems to further amplify the inattention of journalists to the culture of lies.
Ilana Mercer
Cognitive consonance is what writing in the Age of the idiot is all about. The key to success in the scribbling profession is to strike the right balance of mediocrity in writing and thinking, which invariably entails echoing one of two party lines, poorly.
Ilana Mercer
Big media are all about the angle, the spin. Look to the overarching theme that runs through each and every news story. Be hip to the meta-narrative peddled.
Ilana Mercer
The military works like government is financed like government, and sports the same inherent malignancies and perverse incentives of government, down to the racial-spoils system.

Revive the value of seasoned, stoical masculinity in education. Men in authority are now a threatened minority. Again, and in defense of the pack that piled on Klein, America’s progressive schools are overrun by ineffectual females.

Government commissions are where accountability goes to die.

Ilana Mercer
If women with the same skills as men were getting only 78 cents for every dollar a man earns, men would have long-since priced themselves out of the market.
Ilana Mercer
Islamic terrorism is the handiwork of people who've heeded, not hijacked, Islam. Or so says [Wafa] Sultan.
Ilana Mercer
A propagandized population has a hard time choosing worthy heroes. It is high time Americans celebrate the Anti-Federalists, for they were correct in predicting the fate of freedom after Philadelphia.
Ilana Mercer
From dwarf tossing to drug taking: The legislator has no place in voluntary exchanges between consenting adults, as dodgy and as dangerous as these might be.
Ilana Mercer
'You didn't build that' will be Obama's political epitaph: With these remarks, Obama has come out of the closet as a most odious collectivist, who believes religiously that government predation is a condition for production. Or, put simply, that the parasite created the host.
Ilana Mercer
Still - and for all Obama's heavy hinting to the contrary - Islam has no human rights. The ideas of individual rights and the dignity of man are distinctly Western, an outgrowth of the Enlightenment. And while dialogue is dignified dhimmitude is not, even if it achieves a desired, if temporary, effect.
