Israel has become a military, technological, and economic powerhouse. Yet as its strategic strength has reached historic heights, its international legitimacy has increasingly come under attack.

The Constitution protects liberty, but can the US preserve freedom without the moral culture that sustains it?

Libel is always the best starting point, since it serves to advance an unsavory view of the people they are attempting to hang in the town square. And that is exactly what is happening.

Many praised Boy George, the flamboyant icon of the 1980s, for standing up for what he believed in despite knowing he would face criticism. Others mocked him.

What made the word unwearable was not an argument. It was Auschwitz. The cost attached to “antisemite” is not a natural property of language; it is a postwar settlement, purchased at a high price.

This was another case of what has come to be known as TACO, Trump Chickens Out Again. This is not the first – and likely not the last – time he warns of strikes only to back down at the last minute.
