Because OUP's actual Very Short Introduction to TERRORISM wasnt scary and big enough, NYPD super-sized it ... cant make this stuff up.

I find it weird that newspapers characterize students as being “pro-Palestinian” as opposed to anti whatever you call this.

Outrageous. Any European ally with a thimble of political power – in Brussels, or in country capitals – should be demanding immediate answers.

Already 5 years ago, my 2 friends Reda Cherif & Fuad Hasanov from the IMF wrote a paper with the Harry Potter-inspired title: “The Return of the Policy That Shall Not Be Named: Principles of Industrial Policy”. Now, let's ensure that what's returning is *good* industrial policy.…
