Charleston Tragedy Prayers go out to the families and colleagues of these brave firefighters -- and to the people of Charleston. At least nine firefighters re dead in a blaze that swept through a Charleston, S. Riley said early Tuesday, according to the Associated Press. Onlookers were hit with flying ash.

The reason? It depends on who you talk to. And there are lots of contradictions. Some say it is because it was not brought to council for proper approval, others say protocol was not followed.
Another reason given is it was a one-year project. But many City Hall sources tell me it has everything to do with some complaints from a few anti-war citizens who have the ear of some leftist councillors -- and felt the ribbons were in support of the war in Afghanistan and not just in support of the troops. I'm sure that there were a few folks in Toronto who sympathized with the Nazis during WWII and opposed the war as a result. Would their objections have stopped municipal efforts to support the troops in ?
Why should their objections today stop efforts to support the troops now? Iranian Hypocrisy The president of Iran and his senior ministers have long spoken openly about the impending destruction of Israel. So where do they get the moral authority to demand condemnation of Israel for statements about destroying Iran's illegal nuclear program? Yiddish has a word for such an action -- chutzpah. Ironic, isn't it, that this Jewish dialect is the source of the only word that adequately describes this move by the terrorist state of Iran?
