American dream is a life without debt
American dream is a life without debt
I dream of the day I will be 100 percent debt free! I took on debt fairly early in life, when I borrowed money to help cover the cost of my Penn State degree.

Israel: 'Mowing the lawn' again, but with malice aforethought
Israel: 'Mowing the lawn' again, but with malice aforethought
The two-day Israeli military incursion into the Palestinian city of Jenin in the northern West Bank (12 Palestinians killed, one Israeli dead) seems at first glance like just another example of “mowing the lawn.” That's what the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) call these periodic futile raids they make to kill some Palestinian fighters.

Republicans crying about cocaine have forgotten Jan. 6
Republicans crying about cocaine have forgotten Jan. 6

At the NATO summit in Vilnius: Will Biden seize or squander the chance to end Putin's war on Ukraine?
At the NATO summit in Vilnius: Will Biden seize or squander the chance to end Putin's war on Ukraine?
Does Joe Biden want to be remembered as the president who lost Ukraine? That question must be asked as NATO allies prepare to meet at a historic summit in the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius on Tuesday and Wednesday, which will focus on Russian President Vladimir Putin's continued aggression in Ukraine.

Toward an era of new imperialism?
Toward an era of new imperialism?
Russian President Vladimir Putin initiated war with simple and hasty thinking. At its beginning, the war was expected to be a three-day special military operation. Contrary to his original thinking, it has lasted over 16 months.

Keeping Senegal's success story alive
Keeping Senegal's success story alive
In late June, Senegal celebrated the feast of Tabaski, our version of the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha. But for some, the festivities were overshadowed by mourning for those who lost their lives in an inexcusable outbreak of violence last month.
