Friday, October 23, 2020Erdogan's Calamitous Authoritarianism Turkey's President Erdogan is becoming ever more dangerous as he continues to ravage his own country and destabilize scores of states in the Middle East, the Balkans, and North Africa, while cozying up to the West's foremost advisories. Sadly, there seems to be no appetite for most EU member states to challenge Erdogan and put him on notice.
Friday, September 25, 2020Trump Is Pushing The Country To The Brink Of Civil War Trump has demonstrated beyond any doubt that he has no respect for American democracy. What the president said about remaining in power is nothing short of treasonous, and may well lead to open violence.

Friday, May 22, 2020A Portrait Of A Ruthless Dictator But Turkey's President Erdogan has squandered it all by putting his self-interest and blind ambition before the country. His legacy will be of one who lost his way and left a shattered country in his wake.
Tuesday, May 19, 2020Israel And Palestinians: Architects Of Their Own Destruction If Israel proceeds with its plans of annexation and the Palestinians continue to hold onto their dead-end position, the result is all but certain.
