  • Elections in Iran

    First, Who is Shmuel Rosner? Secondly, as long as the United States gives preferential treatment to Israel, there will never be peace in the Middle East.

  • Iraq: Failure, mistake, or Success?

    Much has been stated about the fact that we were wrong to enter Iraq. That success is measured by how quickly we can get out of Iraq.

Millions of ...
