For Sake of Iranian People, Foreign Intervention Justified

As with many contemporary challenges, the case for foreign intervention in Iran has a clear precedent: NATO’s intervention in the former Yugoslavia against the regime of Slobodan Milošević.

Gaza’s Genocide Inversion: Setting the Record Straight

This video refutes the dire and growing accusation circulating globally—one that seeks to delegitimize Zionism, demonize Israel, and implicitly provoke hostility toward Jews both inside and outside the borders of the Jewish state–that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians.

The Prospects for a Democratic Transition in Venezuela

The first phase focuses on oil. Owing to sanctions, much of Venezuela’s oil production is effectively frozen. Under this plan, American companies would help rehabilitate oil production and facilitate sales, while profits would be managed in a way intended to benefit the Venezuelan population rather than fuel corruption or sustain the regime.

What Comes After Maduro Is the Real Test

On the morning of January 3, U.S. special operations forces arrested Venezuelan leader Nicolás
Maduro in a highly coordinated operation that immediately drew global attention. U.S.
authorities allege that Maduro oversaw an extensive drug-trafficking network that harmed
American interests. Critics, some quoted by The New York Times, questioned whether the scale
of narcotics flows from other regions poses a more immediate threat, raising broader questions
about the operation’s justification.

US, Iran, Israel, and Saudi Arabia-What is Going On?

It is arguably the case that there is never a dull moment in the Middle East, and this time it is all about the Biden Administration and its flurry of activity in the region. Donald Trump called Biden ‘’Sleepy Joe’’, but he could not be farther from the truth when it comes to the Middle East.

Point of View: Building a future for healthy mothers and babies

Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic over a year ago, we have repeatedly heard the same cliché that “we are all in the same boat.” Yet, the truth is that some of us have faced a much greater risk the whole time. One such group is pregnant women. Studies from around the world have shown that pregnant women, and especially pregnant women of color, are at higher risk of illness and death than the wider population.

Senator Manchin, the Filibuster, and the Loss of a Glorious Political Tradition

Much has been said that Democrats could get their way and advance their ambitious legislative plans, but only if they were to eliminate the Senate Filibuster. The elimination of such a device would enable the Democrats to pass legislation by a simple majority. Without its elimination, most bills require 60 votes, or 3/5 of the Senate, to become law.

Voting Rights Legislation 2021

Now that a reformist administration is on the verge of being inaugurated in D.C., we can anticipate that some of the most urgent changes in national voting laws will have a chance of being implemented. During the last Congress, two bills, H.R. 1, For the People’s Act and H.R.4, The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act were passed by the House of Representatives, but never taken up for consideration in the Senate. With some modifications to address the problems that occurred during the 2020 Election, we know that both bills will be re-introduced during the 117th Congress.
