Why Europe Will Collapse: Schultz’s Outrage at Poland
Why Europe Will Collapse: Schultz’s Outrage at Poland A huge protest against the Europe Union has taken place in Poland. When I was there, everyone I spoke to was against joining the euro.

Why ISIS Exists: The Double Game
Why ISIS Exists: The Double Game Pete Souza The western press laments the near impossibility of defeating an organization that didn’t even exist a couple of short years ago.

It Will Take Trillions of Euros to Save the European Union The EU’s political leaders and other elites are committed to holding the European Union together.

Tomgram: Rebecca Gordon, Corruption U.S.A. I recently took a little trip into the past and deep into America’s distant war zones to write a piece I called “It’s a $cam.” It was, for me, an eye-opening journey into those long-gone years of American “nation-building” and “reconstruction” in Afghanistan and Iraq. Mind you, I still remembered […]
