Donald Trump’s Fears About Syrian Refugees and ISIS Fall Flat

Here is the link to Newsweek piece.


Syria is bleeding. Here are some info below:
Now in its sixth year, the conflict in Syria is the largest and most complex humanitarian crisis in the world, with no end in sight.
Brutal and relentless violence has brought the country to its knees. Millions of Syrian women, men and children are in desperate need of immediate assistance.
8 million people displaced inside Syria
4.5 million people live in besieged cities and hard-to-reach areas
 4.5 million refugees live in the neigbouring countries and beyond
 1.5 million people injured
 250,000 people killed

Already this year, we've carried out 14 operations across frontlines – reaching 16 million Syrian people with clean water, 2.6 million with food and 500,000 with essential household items.
Looking forward, we hope to assist 1.175 million people with food every month, 180,000 with essential household items, and implement more projects to improve or restore people's access to clean water.
In addition to delivering more medicine, we want to help step up primary health care services provided by Syrian Arab Red Crescent, which includes providing vehicles to transport vaccines and increasing assistance to hospitals and treatment centres.

It has become something of an annual Davos tradition for me to give an overview of the current state of the world. I was planning half an hour for my remarks and half an hour for questions, but my speech has turned out to be closer to an hour. I attribute this to the severity of the problems confronting us. After I’ve finished, I’ll open it up for your comments and questions. So prepare yourselves. *** I find the current moment in history rather painful. Open societies are in crisis, and various forms of dictatorships and mafia states, exemplified by Putin’s Russia, are on the rise. In the United States, President Trump would

Defining the Biden Doctrine

  In his first major foreign-policy speech as U.S. president, Joe Biden declared to the world that America was back. The international sigh of relief was almost audible amid hopes that former President Donald Trump’s disruptive style was a relic. Biden has pursued an ambitious agenda to repair alliances and forge new ones, curb corruption, arrest democratic backsliding, and tackle climate change, all while managing the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, Russian threats to Ukraine, and escalating tensions with China.  It hasn’t all been plain sailing. The decision to withdraw remaining U.S. troops from Afghanistan precipitated the collapse of the country’s government and chaos in Kabul as hundreds of thousands of people fled the Taliban.
