Desmond TutuI do believe that the Kurds are in a difficult situation. They do have some American support. How consistent that will be is unclear. But they have built up a strong military, and they have begun to build the institutions of an autonomous life in Northern Syria.

That is indeed difficult.

The country prefers progressive alternatives to the failed policies of the conservative right.

John AssarafAt heart, American conservatives like myself are believers in the Constitution.

Sean HannityThe weaknesses and biases of the international mechanisms of accountability make it seem desirable to extend the domain of accountability by empowering domestic courts to act as agents of the world legal system.
