Compare with fool Angelina Jolie. The former is a generous foreigner, who realizes that America gave her good fortune. Dion , yesterday, to Hurricaid.
The latter, not-so-Jolie, is supposed to be an American–and seems to have forgotten that.
She didn’t give any $s to Hurricaid, the way she does for Palestinian kids in Jordan who sing of taking revenge on Jews (about which she lovingly wrote in her smarmy U.N. diary). But non-angelic Angelina has no problem spouting off and criticizing U.S. rescue and relief efforts. And–how helpful–she wrote whining letters to Members of Congress about it. Where’s that bizarre husband-stealer’s checkbook that usually opens so fast for those in Islamic nations?
Yes, Jolie participated in a 1-hour televised fundraiser on Thursday in New York, but the multi-millionairess gave $0 of her own money (had she given a dime, she and her publicists would make sure we knew)–and she did so only after Robert De Niro shut down the set of the movie she was working on and told her to do it.

Not Jolie: Anti-America Angelina is quick to attend Islamist Hate-Fests for kids and extend help. Hurricane Katrina’s victimized kids? Very little.
Then, there’s Jolie’s biggest “contribution” to Hurricaid, the same as she always seems to “contribute” to America–attacks on it.
Angelina Jolie never misses an opportunity –whether it’s attacking us for not providing illegal aliens with lawyers to fight deportation from our country, or attacking U.S. detention facilities for illegal alien children (where conditions are better than the kids ever had it). But this skank-asaurus has taken few opportunities to help the country that made her a star and gave her a life of luxury–America.
She could learn a thing or two from Celine Dion, who donated a million and joined it with best wishes for America, not whines and attacks. But Dion has class.
This woman, Jolie, on the other hand, is a phony with a pretty veneer and an ugly agenda. She says she wants to go visit “Palestine,” soon. Please, Angelina Jolie, go visit.
And don’t come back.

I’ve been critical of , both of which have been slow to offer help–and that’s a charitable way of saying they have thus far done zilch.
But not Celine Dion. As much as I make fun of her and her songs, now she deserves my and all of America’s thanks.
She stepped up to the plate and donated $1 million dollars. We should remember this. And remember those who made their fortunes off of American fans and didn’t follow Celine Dion’s lead.

Ever since about the deservedly fired (after 6 months! on the job) TSA screener Bassam Khalaf a/k/a “Arabic Assassin”, he’s been trying to get my attention.
Incredibly, the Palestinian, who rapped about how he supports Bin Laden, the Taliban, and more terrorist attacks on the U.S., and hates Jews, Christians, and Blacks (he raps about raping and killing them), worked as a TSA screener of baggage in Houston.
Khalaf has (high-class writing), Yahoo Instant Messengered me, had his friends e-mail me–all to no avail.
Now, this “class act” is threatening to do one of those rape/murder/necrophilia songs about me on his next album. Gee, I can hardly wait. . . .

The FBI is investigating a group of Northwest Airlines flight attendants, but neither side (the FeeBs (FBI)or the nearly-bankrupt airline) is talking, and the flight attendants’ union is in the dark about the nature of the investigation.
One report claims the FBI is investigating the steward/esses for allegedly tampering with a smoke detector on a Japan flight. This merits an FBI investigation?! That would figure. Because if it had anything to do with terrorism, the FBI .
As for Northwest, it seems the airline–and not its flight crews–is the party that should be investigated. For example, why is the wife of alleged Al-Qaeda terrorist, , still working for the airline at Metro Detroit airport? Her husband is in federal prison for carrying $12 million dollars in phony bank cashier’s checks traced to Al-Qaeda operations. His capture was the excellent work of Detroit Customs agents before they became part of ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and under the insidious control of ICE Special Agent in Charge .
Don’t expect the FBI to look into Mrs. Shishani or other suspicious dealings with radical Muslims and “former” terrorists by Northwest Airlines. That would be “profiling,” and we’d rather have 3,000 die on planes than do that.
Stay tuned.

Would you give money to an extremist, anti-American mosque for Hurricane Katrina disaster relief?
The Detroit News, giving addresses to which to donate, reports, “The Islamic Center of America is accepting donations to its Katrina Disaster Relief Fund,” then gives the address.
But the Islamic Center of America, the largest mosque in North America, is an extremist mosque, at which anti-American, jihadist, anti-Semitic rhetoric is a regular occurrence. Ditto for support for Hezbollah–the terrorist group that, until 9/11, murdered the most Americans (and is part of the Al Qaeda network–training Iraqi insurgents, etc.). The imam of the mosque, Hassan Qazwini, is a Shi’ite fundamentalist in the tradition of extremist Ayatollah Khomeini, with tight connections to Iran.
I went undercover to this mosque in 1998, when it happily hosted loony Louis Farrakhan. The anti-American, anti-Semitic hate-fest was reminiscent of a Hitler youth rally.
No surprise that this mosque was presented in such a positive way as the setting of much of Morgan Spurlock’s “30 Days” episode on Islam, as I recently wrote in the Wall Street Journal.
The mosque asks you to send checks to its address in Dearborn. Since other “charities” and “causes” endorsed by this hate-American-and-the-Jews mosque have been questionable, will there be a full accounting of the money this mosque receives? Will we be able to determine whether the money actually went to relief efforts–or something more sinister (like Hezbollah)?
Don’t count on it.
More to come on Qazwini and his extremist mosque, the Islamic Center of America. Stay Tuned.

In this week’s Las Vegas Weekly, Penn Jillette tries to respond to about his movie, “The Aristocrats,” and his strange way of embracing the First Amendment.
The reporter claims I got “nasty and personal” in discussing Jillette’s daughter’s name and his bizarre interior decor. But that’s hardly “personal,” when a) he showed his weird house to every entertainment TV program possible; and b) his publicist press-released the daughter’s “innovative” name. (The reporter declines to mention my criticism of Jillette’s flag-burning on “The West Wing” and the metal “Bill of Rights” cards he wears at airports to set off metal detectors.)
Here’s the exchange:
“Not everyone, of course, is a fan. Las Vegas Weekly began our interview backstage last week at Penn & Teller’s showroom at the Rio by asking Penn to comment on conservative Fox babe Debbie Schlussel’s blog that offers an attack on The Aristocrats (which she concedes is ‘very funny’) that gets nasty and personal:
‘To further show us how much he ‘values’ free speech–or wants to push its limits beyond acceptability and normalcy, Jillette recently named his new daughter Moxie CrimeFighter. She will be tortured all her life with this absurd name. No problem since her father’s house resembles a bizarre sado-masochism den mixed with macabre death penalty implements.’
PENN: The actual sex dungeon is now a nursery. It’s something you couldn’t use in a novel or movie because it is too dead-on, but in real life you can. It’s perfectly funny. The leather walls have been draped with nice baby colors and that’s where Moxie is.”

It’s crotchety liberal “comedian” Bill Maher’s dream come true.
And the rest of America’s nightmare.
American gas prices have reached near-European levels. Thanks to rising prices imposed by OPEC coupled with shut down oil drilling in America’s Hurricane Katrina-stricken Bayou, we are suffering the absurd reality Maher has selfishly wished on us in years of insane ranting.
Thanks, Bill.

Remember all of the whining from foreign countries that we in America didn’t give enough gazillions to the victims of the Tsunami? Remember Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries chastising America for not helping the Muslim victims of the Tsunami?
Remember hour-long “Prime Time Live” interview with Diane Sawyer, criticizing America for not giving enough to Africa? Ditto for his blue-lensed sunglasses-adorned buddy, Bono.
Now, where are all of these parties when Louisiana and Mississippi are in total disaster from Hurricane Katrina? Strangely silent. Interesting that that are no cries about Saudi Arabia (a country we saved from becoming the Kingdom of Saddam) not helping the infidel, non-Muslim (for now) America.
For them and the other members of OPEC, the power in Louisiana and Mississippi cannot be out long enough, the rigs that get oil and supply 25% of our needs cannot be idle long enough, to make them even more gazillions from the rising price of gas. Behind their palaces and in their mosques, they are laughing gleefully at this American tragedy.
Where is Brad Pitt now? Too busy taking care of kiddies apparently (kind of like the rest of America that is ALWAYS busy with its jobs and families, without the luxuries of movie-star salaries and accoutrements). One place where Pitt isn’t is reaching for his wallet or checkbook for those in trouble here. Ditto for his sleazebag, pro-Palestinian girlfriend.
When the rest of the world is in trouble, America must be the savior. When America is in trouble, we’re on our own.

Somebody give the Las Vegas “Magic Marketplace” a hand. The fashion show, held twice a year, is the hip place to be to show off your wares, if you are a designer or clothing line.
And, yesterday, the Magic show kicked rapper “The Game” out. Finally, someone takes a stand against rap violence. “The Game” claims he was kicked out because he is suspected in being involved in the shooting of gangsta rap mogul Suge Knight at this weekend’s . But whether he was involved or not, “The Game” has ties to gangs and was involved in a feud earlier this year with rapper 50 Cent that resulted in a person being shot outside a New York City radio station.
While the rest of the world–including the fashion world–embraces hip-hop thuggery, it’s amazing the Vegas Magic fashion show finally took a stand against it. It wasn’t all courage, though. If violence resulted with “The Game” at the fashion confab, there would be expensive lawsuits to contend with.

If you were thinking of seeing “The Constant Gardener,” in theaters today, save your money.
That is, unless you are into movies where the murderous, evil White man and the big bad pharmaceutical companies they run are the reason for all poverty, illness, despair, and death in Africa. That’s the Cliff’s Notes version of this celluloid piece of crap: Western White Man, Evil; Innocent African Black Man, Angelic. The stupid, liberal, noblesse oblige crowd who attended the screening just loved it. I guess they enjoy being spanked.
No coincidence that far-left, biased organizations like OxFam and Amnesty International get much positive play in the propaganda “thriller.” And one of the heroes of the movie is, surprise, a gay African doctor. Strangely, the marauders who burned, killed, and raped Blacks in Sudan were not identified as the Arab Muslims that they are in real-life Sudan.
No coincidence, either, that this movie stars Ralph Fiennes, the star of the equally boring and predictable, “The English Patient.” As “Seinfeld” character Elaine Bennis said about that film, “Just die already.” I second that emotion, here.
“The Constant Gardener” is based on a thriller by leftist, anti-Israel novelist John LeCarre. If this boring, obvious propaganda is a “thriller,” it’s hard to see that anyone has ever been thrilled by this best-selling writer. I struggled to stay awake during this boredom-fest, wasting two hours of my life I can never get back.
LeCarre likes attacking western institutions and allies and propping up unworthy third-world parties. His “The Little Drummer Girl” makes the Israel the villain, a la the White man and drug companies in this film, and Palestinians the victims, like the Africans in “Gardener.”
If you buy tickets to “The Constant Gardener,” you are giving tacit approval to LeCarre’s work–and making him even more wealthy and free to spread more such BS.
