Young girls in Minnesota are suffering irreversible harm in silence, even though state law has called the act a felony for more than thirty years. Female genital mutilation—cutting or removing parts of a girl’s external genitalia for cultural reasons—continues inside tight-knit Somali immigrant families, shielded by shame, family pressure, and official reluctance to look too closely.

The similarities among the United States and Israel include their shared Manifest Destiny. One appears historical, the other current. In reality, they are conjoint and continuous, because the basis of their action is reason and progress. Manifest means self-evident and clear. Destiny means fated and inevitable, often in the context of a divine calling, and destined by God to create a dominion, and spread a particular belief and culture. That faith and culture in the United States was a manifestation of modernization based on human progress. The country began as a small, isolated settlement, just as Israel began, but it...

On the surface, “furries” are interested in anthropomorphism: animals who act like people. As an offspring of transgender ideology, “furry” culture centers on sexual interest in these anthropomorphic animal characters. Robinson had an account on FurAffinity.net,...

The activism has forced some stages to be shortened and occasionally caused crashes as demonstrators burst onto the course, prompting criticism for threatening rider safety and harming Spain’s image. In his first public comments on the debate, Sanchez...
