The frightening events aboard a recent Flydubai flight in the Middle East brought back memories of an experience I had more than half a century ago — one that began as an ordinary airline flight and ended with a hijacker dead on the tarmac in Saigon. On July 2, 1972, I was returning to Vietnam […]
A political statement does not have to be completely false to leave voters with a false impression. Sometimes, every individual word can be technically defensible while the most important part of the story remains conveniently outside the frame.

If firms with $500 million in revenue are allowed to position themselves as “small” to access set-aside contracts, it would undermine the core […]
An Israeli-bound flight plunged toward disaster Wednesday. Passengers and crew acted to save lives. Saudi authorities helped the survivors. Meanwhile, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani was coming off a round of sukkah visits and promoting an antisemitism strategy that avoids defining antisemitism. The contrast deserves attention.
