Romney's adventures abroad show he hasn't a clue Thomas Walkom
August 7, 2012
The excellent adventures of Mitt Romney make for hilarious reading.
Lack of social cohesion basis for youth crime Eva Sajoo
August 7, 2012
The recent spate of shootings in Toronto - especially the episode in the Danzig neighbourhood - has sparked a flurry of comment.
The roving eye - Syrian blood etches a new line in the sandPepe Escobar
August 7, 2012
Once upon a time, early in the previous century, a line in the sand was drawn, from Acre to Kirkuk. Two colonial powers - Britain and France - nonchalantly divided the Middle East between themselves; everything north of the line in the sand was France's; south, it was Britain's.
EU's latest message to Israel - "Do your worst without fear of sanction by us"Alan Hart
August 7, 2012

DegenderizingReuel S. Amdur
August 7, 2012
There are two main objections to degenderization of language, one based on history and the nature of language and the other on esthetics. We begin with a brief statement of the justification for degenderization.
A Crass and Consequential ErrorRoger Cohen
August 7, 2012
Muhammad Mossadegh, the Iranian prime minister overthrown by US and British agents in 1953, was a man who declined a salary, returned gifts, and collected tax arrears from his beloved mother. Frugality was allied to punctiliousness in this droopy-nosed aristocrat who enraged the West by insisting that Iran, not Britain, should own, sell, and profit from Iranian oil. A member of the princely Qajar family, he retained a noblesse-oblige gentility even as he became the symbol of postwar Iranian assertiveness. He fainted, he swooned-and was often pajama-clad. When he saw a hole, he had an irrepressible inclination to dig deeper. High principle trumped judicious compromise too often for Mossadegh to be a successful politician.
In Hiroshima's Shadow Noam Chomsky
August 7, 2012
August 6, the anniversary of Hiroshima, should be a day of somber reflection, not only on the terrible events of that day in 1945, but also on what they revealed: that humans, in their dedicated quest to extend their capacities for destruction, had finally found a way to approach the ultimate limit.
The blatancy of apartheidPhilip Weiss
August 7, 2012
I'm no stranger to Israel and Palestine, still what shocks me about coming here is how blatant the system of unfairness is. Why is this not utterly familiar to me? I wonder. Why don't Americans see this every day in the news? What kind of fairyland image are we getting of this place, and why? Or as the Canadian Christian pilgrim said to me last night leaving Qalandiya checkpoint, "What endless humiliation. And why is it such an open secret back home?" So everything here brings me back to the American denial, our blindered media, and to American Jewish identity and the lies that American Jews have told one another for generations.
Looking after a disabled offspringReuel S. Amdur
July 28, 2012
What will become of my disabled offspring when I am no longer around to help? That is a common concern that parents, especially older parents, have. The burdens of being the parent of a person with a disability, physical or mental, are apt to continue throughout life.
