Trump’s ‘War on Drugs’ Will Work About as Well as the Last One
The Trump administration is transforming the decades-old metaphorical “war on drugs” into a literal one—and Venezuela and Colombia are on its front line. Since September, U.S. military aircraft have blown up 19 boats, killing 76 people in extrajudicial strikes. Administration officials claim the boats were transporting drugs from Venezuela and Colombia to the United States.
Trump’s ‘War on Drugs’ Puts Venezuela and Colombia on Its Front Line

U.S. Foreign Policy United States The Trump administration is transforming the decades-old metaphorical “war on drugs” into a literal one—and Venezuela and Colombia are on its front line.

City street names reveal a product-filled past
On next Monday’s Indigenous People’s Day, History Cambridge will share information and resources about local, state and national initiatives to support the Native peoples of Cambridge and beyond, including the city’s approved Participatory Budgeting project to add Indigenous language to street signs. This week we look at another category of place names in Cambridge: streets and squares that reflect the industrial production that has long been a building block of the city’s economy.
The Banality of Lying
“A lie gets halfway around the world before truth has a chance to get its pants on.” —Winston Churchill Misinformation, disinformation, deception, dissembling, lying and bullshit. Print, digital, and audio and visual media are seemingly saturated by it all—on matters grave and mundane—and yet for many it’s shrugged off with an ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on attitude.
Britain Banning Hizb ut-Tahrir Is Not the Way to Fight Extremism
On Jan. 19, the British government banned Hizb ut-Tahrir by labeling it as a terrorist organization, making it a crime to belong to or support the activist group in the United Kingdom. The Liberation Party, as it is known in English, was founded in East Jerusalem in 1952 by Taqi al-Din al-Nabhani, an Islamic scholar dedicated to opposing the newly formed state of Israel and uniting the postcolonial Muslim world under the banner of a global khilafah, or Islamic state. On Jan.
Hamas and ISIS Are Not the Same
And yet, it must be said that Hamas is not ISIS. There are far more differences between the two groups than similarities. Acknowledging this reality is critical: Only when it’s understood how Hamas really works — and what it’s aiming for — will it be possible to confront the group in a way that will help Israel regain its security and ultimately end the war.
Preparing For Pay Versus Performance
Twelve years is a long time, even for a regulatory body. So when it takes the SEC that long to hammer out a final version of a proposed rule, it's safe to anticipate that the requirements within it will be relatively complex.

Be Careful What You Post: Personal Jurisdiction In Internet Defamation Lawsuits
In today's world, we have innumerable options to communicate and social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook have become, for many, a large part of our lives. While our modern digital life has increased social connectedness and removed barriers to communication, it has also led to increasing defamation claims that challenge the traditional notions of personal jurisdiction. In a recent case, Helali v.

Isolation & Wonder in the Pribilof Islands
This article is the first in a four-part series covering the Pribilof Islands: their beauty and biodiversity, their cultural history, the environmental challenges the islands face, and the proposed solutions. OVER THE THOUSAND-FOOT CLIFFS of the Pribilof Islands in Alaska, millions of birds swoop and dive. They are red-faced cormorants, parakeet and least auklets, black- and red-legged kittiwakes, tufted and horned puffins, thick-billed and common murres.
Cambridge had its own little Suez Canal crises back when Cambridgeport was still The Port
“On the Banks of the Charles River, Cambridgeport, Massachusetts,” by John W. A. Scott (1850s), from “A History of American Marine Painting” by John Wilmerding. (Photo: Cambridge Historical Commission) An early 20th century photograph of the schooner Henry Endicott heading up the Charles River toward the Broad Canal stands as evidence that there was a time when the “port” in “Cambridgeport” had real meaning.

The Cardinal Newman Society
Socrates had important answers to the big questions in life. But he was especially good at asking questions, helping his students use their own reason to discover answers that were available to them all along. I have had a similar experience whenever I am a guest on Jesuit Father Robert McTeigue’s “Catholic Current” radio show (distributed by […]
What Antifa Is, What It Isn’t, and Why It Matters
National security. For insiders. By insiders. As senior citizen Martin Gugino was lying in his hospital bed, suffering from a subdural hematoma, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to suggest that Gugino “could be an ANTIFA provocateur.” One day earlier, two Buffalo, New York, police officers shoved Gugino, leaving him bleeding from his ear.
How many solar panels does it take to fill up a hydrogen car?
Stanford scientists figure out way to get hydrogen out of seawater. Does this matter? Every time the words "hydrogen fuel" come up I want to yell in bold uppercase that if it is made through electrolysis, "HYDROGEN ISN'T A FUEL, IT'S A BATTERY!" And come up it has, in Fast Company, where Adele Peters writes Scientists just found a new way to make fuel from seawater.
The Islamic State in Britain
Drawing on extensive field research with activists on the streets of London, Michael Kenney provides the first ethnographic study of a European network implicated in terrorist attacks and sending fighters to the Islamic State. For over twenty years, al-Muhajiroun (Arabic for 'the Emigrants') strived to create an Islamic state in Britain through high-risk activism. A number of Emigrants engaged in violence, while others joined the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
On Anjem Choudary's Release from Prison: An Insight into the Activist Network
With his imminent release from prison for inviting support for the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), Anjem Choudary and his network of supporters are back in the spotlight. As I write in my forthcoming book, Choudary and his fellow al-Muhajiroun (Arabic for “the Emigrants”) activists have struggled to create the Islamic caliphate in Britain for years through preaching, demonstrations, and other forms of confrontational activism that push the boundaries of free speech and association.
Why Anjem Choudary's release from prison won't necessarily reboot al-Muhajiroun
The extremist preacher Anjem Choudary is about to be released from prison in Britain and many commentators are getting nervous. It’s hard to fault them for their anxiety. Choudary and his band of al-Muhajiroun (Arabic for “the Emigrants”) fanatics remain among the UK’s most reviled – and marginalised – figures. For over 20 years, they have tried to establish an Islamic caliphate in Britain.
After Brexit: the English question surfaces? | OUPblog
“Will the Prime Minister provide a commitment today that no part of the great repeal bill will be subject to English votes for English laws?” This seemingly technical query – posed by the SNP’s Kirsty Blackman at PMQs the day after the Prime Minister had outlined the government’s plans for Brexit – will have reminded Theresa May that, amidst the turmoil and drama of the current political moment, a powerful English – as well as Scottish – question is now salient in British politics.
Fight jihadis on their own turf
When Abu Rahin Aziz was killed by coalition airstrikes in Raqqa, Syria, this month, I wasn’t exactly surprised. As one of the estimated 700 Britons, and 5,000 Europeans, who have emigrated to Iraq and Syria in recent years to join the Islamic State and other jihadist groups, Aziz was part of a growing security problem facing Western governments.
