Illegal Aliens Self-Deport  [Peter Brimelow] - 09/18/04

The Irish Echo’s Ray O’Hanlon reports that New York State’s new rule requiring a valid Social Security number to renew driver’s licenses is prompting Irish illegal aliens to leave the U.S. Yet another example of the ways in which illegals can be persuaded to self-deport—something that has apparently never occurred to the Bush Administration’s Asa Hutchinson.

Michelle Malkin’s “Self-Hatred” [James Fulford] - 09/18/04

I see that critics of Michelle Malkin’s new book on internment are accusing her of being a “self-hating” Asian American.

I’ve always felt that anyone accused of being self-hating for refusing to toe the left-wing line (Thomas Sowell, Clarence Thomas, Ward Connerly) should simply look the critics in the eye and say, “I don’t hate me. I hate you.”

But there are two other points:

bulletMichelle is an American. Her defense of America’s actions in World War II show her to be a non “self-hating” American. Some people call this “loyalty.” You could look it up.

bulletMichelle’s family comes from the Philippines, not Japan. It may have escaped your notice, but while Japanese-American internees were safe at home, Japan invaded and occupied the Philippines, with horrible cruelty, until American forces liberated the islands. Malkin’s uncle fought in the resistance. I would say that more American schoolchildren today could identify Manzanar than Bataan. Given the differences between Japanese-run camps and American-run camps, it’s not surprising Michelle is unsympathetic.
