Will an outcome of Trump's Phoenix rally be a pardon for Joe Arpaio? Posted: 22 Aug 2017 02:16 PM PDT Chasing after undocumented immigrants made Joe Arpaio a household name, but in time, his crusade became a double-edged sword. Public criticism mounted, racial profiling lawsuits poured in, and last year residents of Maricopa County, Ariz., voted him out after serving 24 years as their sheriff. Mr. Arpaio calls his conviction a travesty of justice. |
Confederate monuments: What to do with them? Posted: 22 Aug 2017 12:59 PM PDT Clarissa Harriss hesitated at the spot where the statue of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson used to stand. In 1948, as a little girl, Ms. Harriss had worn a polka-dot dress and carried yellow roses and participated in the statue's dedication. Today Harriss had returned with her dog and a new bouquet. |

Afghanistan: Why Trump is making longest US war his own Posted: 22 Aug 2017 12:16 PM PDT There is no arguing for the notion that the United States is winning the war in Afghanistan, what already years ago became its longest military engagement. Afghanistan has been kept from becoming again a safe haven for Islamist terrorists, and no more attacks targeting the US and the West have been hatched and launched from its soil. Al Qaeda has been weakened, and recent efforts by the so-called Islamic State to secure a foothold in Afghanistan have been rebuffed, both by US troops and by Western-trained Afghan security forces acting under US guidance. |
