Two seemingly unrelated events are tied at the hip. Jason Arday was a professor at Cambridge University. On the one hand, I owe Cambridge a bit of...
Iran seems high on drugs with its most recent demands from the U.S. One of the hallmarks of Palestinians fighting with Israel is that the former...

The Democrats can’t think of a good reason to like the United States. I have a friend who was a Harvard Summer School counselor. One of the students...
Western countries stand at a crossroads; the time to act is now. “Muslim minority” countries rarely stay that way. Someone recently pointed out...
Every has-been has to give his two cents on what Israel should do. An American friend of mine who lives in a town in Samaria told me a story. He was...
