“I grew up around the auto industry. Customers would say to my dad, ‘We have this need.’ He would then use his own money to create prototypes to fulfill those needs. He took the ‘If you build it they will come’ approach.” —Erik Prince

Trump applies the rules of his golf game to foreign policy.

The folly of the next Afghan “surge.”

Americans are tired of war, yet Donald Trump’s budget sends an unfortunate but clear message.

100,000 troops couldn't stabilize Afghanistan. What can an extra 5,000 win, besides more casualties?

If Trump can't tell us why his new strategy will work, we should tell him "No!"

We may never know who is to blame, nor, sadly, are we likely to learn the names and the life stories of the victims.

The solutions to this major crisis, and indeed many of our problems, would naturally flow from the recognition of the fact that we are brothers and sisters of one humanity.

What it really means to be on a “flattening” planet.

An estimated increase of 3,000 to 5,000 soldiers may be deployed.
