How Donald Trump Discovers The Art Of Political Negotiation
We don’t understand the negotiations in Ukraine and the Middle East because we don’t understand the difference between wars and civil conflicts. We approach peacemaking as if it were a matter of dividing up common property during a divorce, after a few years of living together. But wars are of […]

Rehabilitation And Confidence Tricks: Al-Sharaa, Trump And Sanctions
Contrary to the propaganda of moral upstarts, terrorism pays. It proves rewarding. It establishes states and reconstitutes others. It encourages change, for ill or otherwise.
