Civis Americanus Sum

In 1847, David Pacifico, a Jew who had been born in British-held Gibraltar and was therefore a British subject, had his house burned down in Athens by an anti-Semitic mob. The Greek government refused to protect him or provide any restitution. Lord Palmerston, Britain’s foreign secretary, sent the Royal Navy to blockade Greece until it paid Pacifico’s demands. Critics charged that Palmerston was overreacting. The House of Lords even voted to censure him. But in the House of Commons, Palmerston

Raymond Ibrahim: Islam and Innocence

In a recent post regarding the Taliban’s new, or not so new, field manual, we highlighted a statement from Ashraf Haidari, a diplomat with the Afghanistan Embassy in Washington who stated, “ Islam is against the killing of innocents.” A perfect segue into this piece by Raymond Ibrahim on the “innocence” in Islam.

The Spanish Costas to the Balearics

Guess who?   Arrival at a strange harbour late in the evening with strong winds at the end of a long sail is always a challenge, never more so when there are buoys of assorted colours everywhere, with a set of red and green just off the harbour entrance appearing to lead up the beach!   The staff at Almerimar were exceptionally helpful though, and the entrance, coming alongside the reception berth, and finally bows onto the pontoon, were all achieved without further drama!   In

Cheap Holidays - Morocco

Morocco is barely a stone throw away from Europe, across the narrow channels of Gibraltar, but they are worlds apart in both its culture and experience. Due partly to its geographical position, Morocco is located at the crossroads where the East encounters the West, Africa comes together with Southern Europe, and the Mediterranean combines with the Atlantic.
