The Covenant and the Wooden Box
by Mike Burke
The betrayal of Britain’s Jews and the corruption of its ruling class
In the northeast corner of Parliament Square, in the shadow of the Houses of Parliament, stands a bronze figure 12 feet high. Winston Churchill chose the spot himself in the 1950s, drawing a circle on a map and declaring with the finality of a man who knew his own place in history: “That is where my statue will go.” It was unveiled on the 1st of November in 1973. When the Queen spoke, she revealed a secret that Churchill himself had guarded: When offered a dukedom at the end of his life, he turned it down. He wished to spend his remaining years in the House of Commons—the Parliament he had saved, and that he loved more than any title the Crown could bestow.

Anti-Americanism Is a Disease
Think what you will about Donald Trump; no one can deny his flair. Take, for example, a segment of his State of the Union speech earlier this year. “I’m inviting every legislator to join with my administration in reaffirming a fundamental principle,” Trump said. “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”
