Absolutely brilliant report by @rachelreid6 on British extrajudicial killings in Afghanistan. India is no innocent at this, either, and the lesson is always the same: If leaders let terror become the ends of a war, you are fated to lose https://t.co/d2Xuwq2gsw

I have lost all patience and respect for folks who wax eloquent about naturopathy as a cancer treatment while using the Sloan Kettering wi fi. It is dangerous and disingenuous in times when people are struggling so much with healthcare.
