Generational rejection
There is a sense of change in the air. The belief in long held social and political dogmas are questioned and even rejected. Boomers – in power for well more than a half century – are being rejected by younger generations. The world they...

Poison pills
We live in grim times. The MoU resolving the US-Israel war on Iran is being sabotaged on multiple fronts. Add to this the Europeans’ refusal to enter into any negotiations or dialogue with Russia to end the war in Ukraine. Overall, peace is...
