Alternate headline: 19 Senate Democrats Endorse Terrorism As Legitimate Exercise of Politics. How else to describe a memo signed by almost half of the Senate Democrat caucus calling on Joe Biden to be “bold” and unilaterally declare an intent to recognize Palestine as a sovereign state as a direct result of the war Hamas started on […]

UKRAINE is entering the third year of its unequal war with Russia in a worse plight than when the fighting began. It has begun inauspiciously with the surrender of the besieged eastern city of Avdiivka by its outnumbered defenders. The Russians seem impregnably dug in on a fifth of Ukrainian territory and the military, badly […]
I must admit that I am fascinated by the sudden uptick in talk about a European war with Russia. Not fascinated in the “I would love to see what happens” way, but rather “I never expected to hear the mostly pacifist European governments openly discuss the possibility of World War III.” Nobody, I think, is […]
