On July 26, 1956, Egypt’s President Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal Company, a British/French-controlled entity managing the operation of the Suez Canal, a critical chokepoint in international maritime commerce since its opening in the later 1800s. Nasser acted in order to fund the Aswan High Dam after promised financing  by the World Bank was rescinded by Western leaders—principally Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and Prime Minister Antony Eden—who were frustrated by Nasser’s Cold War policies. Nasser’s unprecedented action precipitated the secret Israeli-French-British Sevres Protocol and the subsequent “Tripartite Aggression”—the invasion by Britain, France, and Israel to topple Nasser,…

Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair Over the weekend, vice president J.D. Vance sojourned to Islamabad to negotiate an end to the Iran War. Given that the U.S. and Israel sabotaged the two previous negotiations with the Persian nation, Iran had good reason to be skeptical. It was correct. The U.S. diplomatic amateurs utterly failed to understand who has the upper hand in this imbroglio, namely Iran, and thus made shockingly unrealistic demands. Now we’ll see whether Tehran’s diplomats survive the usually fatal process of negotiating with Trump’s team of jokers. After Vance called it quits and despite Trump’s threats to…

A two-week ceasefire to the Iran War entered its eighth day on Wednesday one day after President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News that he believes the war is “very close to over.” “We’re not finished,” Trump added. “We’ll see what happens.” The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that the U.S. will send thousands of additional troops into the Middle East in the coming weeks. The forces include 6,000 troops aboard the aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush and several warships escorting it, as well as 4,200 other servicemembers. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told the…

It’s as outrageous as it sounds. Since the mid-1990s, scientists have been obsessed with cloning animals. Dolly the sheep famously became the first mammal to be cloned from a cell taken from an adult mammary gland almost 30 years ago, in 1996. Transitioning from cloning animal embryos to human ones has proven far more controversial, and not only because of the litany of risks involved. So far, scientists have only gone as far as to generate human embryo models grown stem cells and clone primates from fetal cells — rather than adult cells, like Dolly. That hasn’t stopped some from exploring the idea as…
