It has been remiss of me not to note that Harry's Place blogger DavidT has been threatened with a lawsuit by "Gorgeous" George Galloway for associating him with "inflammatory and racist comments" in the course of a throwaway joke left in the comments to another blog. Unfortunately for Gorgeous, David was accurately quoting from the official Covenant of his chums in Hamas, which makes the damage to...

I'm everlastingly grateful to Harry's Place for alerting me to this post - or, more precisely, the hilarious comment thread underneath it.

No, your eyes have not deceived you. This centre-right Conservative Councillor is pledging to stand chest to shoulder with Labour's Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, Hazel Blears. The excellent, albeit left wing blog, Harry's Place is reporting that the Deputy Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain, Dr Daud Abdullah, is suing Ms Blears (believed to be for libel

Even Harry's Place is coming round about what really happened in Bosnia.. But NeilD can speak for himself when he says that the pioneering jihadi character of the Western-backed side was something "which few picked up on at the time, and which has been largely ignored since". For eaxmple, some of us certainly "picked up on", and have certainly not "ignored" the Kravice Christmas Day Massacre of 19...

The excellent left wing blog, Harry's Place, brings to our attention THIS story. Now if you cast your mind back to the early days of the recent Israel - Hamas conflict, you will no doubt remember the screaming headlines after Hamas alleged Israeli shells had struck a UN school in the Jabalya refugee camp killing 42. At the time the story received acres of newsprint, hardened international opinion

Harry's Place is being cheap. As if Russia or Mexico, whatever her faults, were in the same league as China or Saudi Arabia. But yes, that is the same Saudi Arabia that funds the Bushes and the Clintons, and (with Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and APIAC) bankrolled the Clinton Presidential campaign that you ostensibly leftier neocons supported. And yes, that list also includes the same Azerbaij...

Soft left faction Compass seems to have a remarkably lax approach to who can contribute to its website. This article is by Salma Yaqoob. You wouldn't know it as Compass don't explain who she is, but this is the same Salma Yaqoob who is a Respect Councillor, is de facto number 2 to George Galloway in Respect, came within 4,000 votes of becoming a Respect MP. Harry's Place has catalogued what her ra...

The neoconservative blog Harry's Place is maintained by various boys in the City and on Wall Street, each of which is now nothing more than a theme park maintained at public expense because visitors to London or New York expect to see it. Their tax-dodging exhibits are wholly dependent on the tax-paying workers of industrial and agricultural Britain and America, not least including the heavily uni...

We need a new second chamber, but it needs to be as good as the old one. Democracy and liberty are not the same thing. But they are both important. Anyway, I'm not sure why the New Labour types (of all parties) over on things like Harry's Place are complaining: this is now a House stuffed full of them and theirs. Yet even they could see the problem last night. (Although the Government has not been...

Following his intervention in the Michael Reiss affair (an intervention unsurprisingly regarded by Harry's Place as the end of the matter), I hereby renew The Oliver Kamm Challenge. Since he does not understand the terms of the debate, and since it would be beneath him to read any book not written by himself (and then gloriously torn to shreds in a review by Neil Clark), Kamm, who refers to this b...
