The questionable contributions made by Asian businessmen to Clinton’s campaign and to the Democratic party have been covered fairly well. What has not been well covered are the government benefits Asians in the United States (many of whom are recent immigrants) receive. From receiving government money designed to benefit minority owned businesses, to signing up elderly relatives who have never worked in the United States. for SSI (Social Security Income), Asians have been fast to figure out ways to put money from American taxpayers into their pockets.

What people have said about The Michael Coren Show-
Fearless. Unpredictable. Funny. Never boring. There’s nobody and nothing like Michael Coren in journalism anywhere.
-David Frum
Michael Coren is a brilliant intellectual, but with a double dose of humour and common sense. His columns are a must-read road map for anyone looking to make sense of current events.
-Ezra Levant
A woman put on trial for wearing clothing deemed indecent by Sudanese authorities was jailed for refusing to pay a court-ordered fine, her lawyer said. Lubna al-Hussein had faced 40 lashes for wearing pants deemed too tight and a blouse considered too sheer. The threat of lashes was dropped when a court found her guilty but ordered instead that she pay a fine. She had resigned from her UN job to face the penalty.
Today a 12-year-old Yemeni girl, who was forced into marriage, died during a painful childbirth that also killed her baby, a children’s rights group said Monday. Born into an impoverished family in Hodeidah, Fawziya was forced to drop out of school and married off to a 24-year-old man last year, al-Qureshi said. Child brides are commonplace in Yemen, especially in the Red Sea Coast where tribal customs hold sway. The Yemeni parliament tried in February to pass a law, setting the minimum marriage age at 17. But the measure has not reached the president because many parliamentarians argued it violates sharia, or Islamic law, which does not stipulate a minimum age.
Many Muslims believe that because Canada is a secular country, its secular legal system makes it difficult for them to govern themselves by the personal laws of their own religion. For instance, Canada’s marriage and divorce laws differ from Muslim law. The National Association of Women and the Law, the Canadian Council of Muslim Women, and the National Organization of Immigrant and Visible Minority Women of Canada argued that under Shariah law, men and women are not treated equally. One of the major concerns of people critical of Shariah law is that it is subject to interpretation and evolution. There is virtually no formal certification process to designate someone as being qualified to interpret Islamic law. As it stands today, almost anyone can make rulings as long as they have the appearance of piety and a group of followers. In May 2005, the Quebec National Assembly unanimously supported a motion to block the use of Shariah law in Quebec courts.
I never had cared to know what Islam was, only when the Second Intifada started by the Islamic Jihad Palestinians against Israel in the Fall of 2000. Then September 11, 2001 happened, you know, What the hells going on here? As time goes on and terror attacks, I see Islam a lot more being on the news here in Canada. In Ontario a whole this summer there was a quadruple honour killing. Two summers ago a father in Ontario killed his daughter because she didnt want to wear the hijab, the traditional head scarf. I have no hate for Muslims, but I cant stand their religion that they want me to understand. No thanks. Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Syria, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, name an Islamic Religiously run country that respects its people equally. The West has equal time.
