Dovid Rosenfeld: In fact, the Sages state that we should not stare at a rainbow because it is tantamount to staring at God Himself (Talmud Hagigah 16a).

Your column has become a favorite. Well, favorite. Not since Jim Knipfel’s Slackjaw have I anticipated such… Personality.
Jim’s column was Fake. Yours is real, like scary real, and I’ve enjoyed the Weeks immensely, especially picking them apart like split ends. The exercise in brevity keeps me engaged, otherwise I get all Fat and careless. I’ve only written Haiku since, I don’t know, last year or so. Feels like forever. Your latest observation, for example:
Don’t look back. Islam is coming. Is Hollande being asked to start a peace process? I haven’t heard. Sorry. I am funny and intolerant that way.
Some 48 hours later Islam came. Islam came with a bang. What happened? Too much to ask, I’m afraid, because to some people it never sinks in. Islam came to town. More keep coming to the United States, Canada, and throughout Europe, most of them men without women or children; most of them of military age and most of them deserters.
It’s never been about Israel. It’s not about land. It’s not about anything. That’s the scary part. It’s about something else that our Western minds can’t absorb. Now who’s paranoid? Don’t look back. Islam is coming.
Some people never learn.

MJ Lee: Walmart, Amazon, eBay and Sears all announced bans on the sale of Confederate flag merchandise
Etsy: Today, we are removing confederate flag items from our marketplace.
Overstock.com: Overstock.com’s website policy prohibits the sale of products that promote or glorify violent or hateful actions or stances. This prohibition now includes Confederate flags and items with associated iconography, and we have ensured that no such items are available for purchase through Overstock.com.
Walmart: We have taken steps to remove all items promoting the Confederate flag from our assortment — whether in our stores or on our website.
Terence Richard McAuliffe: I wanted to say a couple of words about last week’s horrific tragedy at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston.
First and foremost, I want to express, on behalf of all Virginians, our heartfelt sympathies to all members of the Emanuel Church Community, as well as the larger community in the City of Charleston.
In the days since last week’s tragic shooting, the people of Charleston have displayed unparalleled unity and courage, and they have made all Americans proud.
I also want to commend my colleague, Governor Nikki Haley, for her leadership yesterday in calling for the removal of the Confederate Battle Flag from the state Capitol grounds in Columbia.
As Governor Haley said yesterday, her state can ill afford to let this symbol continue to divide the people of South Carolina.
I believe the same is true here in Virginia.
Although the battle flag is not flown here on Capitol Square, it has been the subject of considerable controversy, and it divides many of our people.
Even its display on state issued license tags is, in my view, unnecessarily divisive and hurtful to too many of our people.
As you all know, I have spent the past 17 months working to build a new Virginia economy that is more open and welcoming to everyone. Removing this symbol from our state-issued license plates will be another step toward realizing that goal.
While it is true that legislation passed by the General Assembly in 1999 requires specialty license plates for the Sons of Confederate Veterans, the legislation specifically attempted to prevent the Confederate emblem from being part of the design. Federal court decisions, however, required DMV to allow the emblem in the design.
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states could indeed prevent the confederate emblem from being placed on their license plates, directly contradicting the prior court rulings in Virginia. Accordingly, I have directed the following actions to remove the Confederate emblem from state-issued license plates.
First, this morning I asked the Attorney General’s office to take steps to reverse the prior Court ruling that requires the Confederate flag be placed on state license plates.
Second, I have directed Secretary of Transportation Aubrey Layne to develop a plan for replacing the currently-issued plates as quickly as possible.

"The Terror you inspire and the Pride of your Heart has deceived you, O Dwellers in the Clefts of the Rock, who Occupy the Heights of the Hill, who says in his Heart, 'Who will bring me down to Earth?' Though you may rise High like the Eagle and though you set your Nest among the Stars, from there I will bring you down, declares YHVH" (Obadiah 1:3-4 Multilingual, Jeremiah 49:16 Multilingual).
"And all Edom [2 Samuel 8:14 Multilingual] and Sedom became Servants of David bearing an Offering" (2 Samuel 8:2 Multilingual).
Translation: "The United States of America which is called, according to The Spirit, 'In the Name of Sedom and Egypt,' where also their Lord was crucified" (Apocalypse 11:8 Multilingual).

Timofey Bordachev: In sum, the category of "international order" may soon follow "multipolarity" into conceptual obscurity. It will be talked about, invoked in speeches, and cited in academic papers – but it will no longer describe how the world truly works. We are moving into an age where power is distributed differently, where the mechanisms of control are less formalized, and where legitimacy is negotiated in real time rather than bestowed by inherited institutions.
