Former U.S. President Donald Trump has a history of making public remarks that most people consider anti-Semitic even though he has had close relations when some Jewish men, such as his lawyers Roy Cohn and Michael Cohen and son-in-law Jared Kushner. Donald Trump attacked American Jews yesterday on his Truth Social platform. He said they “must get their act together before it’s too late.” Too later for what?

October is National Book Month in the USA. It is a time to honor the best books and authors. If you want to get smart, read books. But it will help more if you don’t just read fiction books. How so?

The Eastern Mediterranean Seabed contains considerable natural gas wealth for Israel, Lebanon, Cyprus, and somewhat for Turkey. But toxic politics between these countries, which involves disputes about offshore national boundaries, has held up exploration and therefore the attaining of wealth for some of these countries, especially Lebanon.
