. When criticism of Israeli policy is reflexively labeled as antisemitic, it stifles legitimate discourse and makes meaningful accountability nearly impossible. Equating anti-Zionism with antisemitism is not only intellectually dishonest — it also risks trivializing the seriousness of actual antisemitism, a dangerous and persistent form of hatred that must be addressed with unwavering clarity and […]

Over recent years, severe global shocks have been frequent, with profound implications for our economy and financial system. Yet such shocks are impossible to forecast with any precision as they are not extrapolations of past relationships. Our economy and … Continue reading Once upon a time in the future: strategic foresight in central banks
SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH’S latest documentary is very likely to be his last. Released to cinemas on his ninety-ninth birthday, Ocean has the tone of a valediction: a swan song with whale song, and a shakier iteration of that celebrated reverential rasp. Notwithstanding its five stars in The Guardian and 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it is also something of... Continue Reading →
The lack of correspondence arises when a government tries to operate within the tight constraints of unjustifiable fiscal rules by proposing legislation that cuts billions in government support for programs that are the difference between abject poverty for millions and a modest standard of living is once again coming to the fore in Britain.

Some of the most frequently downloaded Apple and Google apps were developed by Israeli spies and war criminals, generating billions in revenue for the apartheid economy. This article was originally published by ¡Do Not Panic! The developers behind hundreds of Android and iPhone apps with billions of downloads are former Israeli spies whose apps are generating significant revenues for Israel’s genocidal war economy.

I saw you this morning as you were getting your paper, gazing wistfully at that flagpole bracket like it broke your heart in junior year. You want to hang an American flag. It’s summer. Citronella. Popsicles. It’s natural to feel the tug of the stars and stripes.
But what if Craig Doherty—that lawyer for the ACLU who just moved next door—sees it while he’s walking his dog and thinks you’re a Fox News-er? Or that you’ll be yelling about Soros at block parties, or prefacing everything with “As a taxpayer…”?
I’m here to help you.
But first, I gotta bust your chops a little. You liberals made a huge strategic error when you abandoned the flag to the NRA and Facebook “Jesus moms.” Tactically naive, Bob. Symbolic real estate matters.
But relationship repair is a thing, and the flag forgives. You can fly Old Glory and still rep the Blue Dog Democrats. It’s just gonna take a little contextualizing.
Here’s how.

As the country’s most recommended brand-name plaque psoriasis treatment,1 Skyrizi takes any claim of increased irritation due to exposure to our patented, extensive, and deeply trialed2 award-winning advertising3 very seriously.
In addition to increased risk of heart disease, kidney failure, shortness of breath, nocturnal urges, brain worms, rectal polyps and homicidal emissions, Skyrizi has recently added loss of patience, debilitating annoyance, eye gagging, ear strain, brain farts, and phantom-remote syndrome to our list of possible4 side effects.5 However, Skyrizi does not believe this commitment to transparency and openness should be seen as further evidence to avoid our product, but rather as an indicator of Skyrizi’s high moral character and genial, benevolent nature.
