Taxing cheeseburgers could help save the climate
In the universe of possible tools to fight climate change, it’s hard to think of one that would be more politically toxic than a tax on cheeseburgers. You might as well put a tax on puppies, ice cream or even fun. And yet that cheeseburger tax might be a key to keeping catastrophic global warming at bay.

History - and Hollywood - won't spare Benjamin Netanyahu
I can’t think of the last time a Hollywood release was as on the nose as 'Golda,' the new biopic of the iconic Israeli prime minister. Its distribution was timed to loosely coincide with the 50th anniversary of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, which is the setting of the film. That anniversary also seems to have informed the timing of the terrorist attack on southern Israel by Hamas.

A federal judge's gag order against Trump may be satisfying. But it isn't constitutional
Although I often wish that Donald Trump would shut up, he has a constitutional right not to. A federal judge went too far in restricting his free expression Monday when she imposed a gag order on the former president.

Palestinians are people, too
Dominic Saadi is a Maronite Christian of Lebanese descent. He is a husband, father and local business owner, a proud pacifist and a prolific contributor to letters to the editor of The Times-Tribune.

In the fight to end AIDS, girls and young women matter
The President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR - which has saved 25 million lives over the past 20 years and allowed 5.5 million babies to be born HIV-free- demonstrates what’s possible when leaders, countries and communities hold each other accountable and work together to advance health systems and increase access to care for vulnerable populations.

Here is the good, the bad and the scary of climate change
Halloween is a time when we explore our fears, face the skeletons and ghouls of our past, and try on new identities. We can do that for climate change as well by looking at the scary parts as challenges we can overcome together.

Through the generations
A lot of folks have deeply held opinions about Gen Z. Some say they lack initiative-how else could they spend that much time on TikTok? Some question their maturity-it’s not possible to be independent while still being on your parents’ phone plan, right? A lot like judges at the Westminster Dog Show, these folks tend to look for flaws rather than opportunities to tap into pot...

Hamas' terror also holds a warning for US
We become depraved by degrees. Germans did not become Jew killers in a day. It took years of conditioning, via propaganda, and then steady practice, via party and state brutality, to shed their humanity and become a nation of functional sociopaths. The Hamas terrorists who murdered babies in their cribs last week weren’t stamped with pathological hatred at birth. It was an ac...

I am a Palestinian journalist from Gaza. I fear a media blackout of the war
I met Ibrahim Lafi for the first time in 2021. I’d returned home to the besieged Gaza Strip after being in the U.K. for six years, unable to go back because of Israel’s blockade there.

Four myths exposed by the Hamas attack on Israel
The horror unleashed by Hamas is only beginning. A terrorist group that killed at least 1,200 people in Israel last weekend is now endangering countless Palestinian lives, through its cynical practice of putting military capabilities in hospitals, schools and dense urban areas. But if shocks like the one Israel suffered have any upside, it’s that they expose - and provide a c...
