Opinion | What 9/11, Cancer and the Palisades Fire Taught Me (Published 2025)
We’ll never know with certainty that carcinogens in the smoke, dust and ash from the World Trade Center caused my wife’s cancer and my own.

With caveats needed (this is too little, far too late & some of what Miliband said in the full speech was more disappointing)… I am so heartened to see a UK Foreign Secretary finally willing to make this case in Parliament.
This may have felt impossible just weeks ago.

Ed Miliband says the UK now considers Israel’s occupation unlawful.
The government will ban imports from illegal settlements, sanction those who finance or facilitate settlement expansion, and tighten restrictions on arms exports.
“You will face the full force of UK sanctions.”

It's crazy to me that this is not leading the New York Times, NBC News, CNN, etc. If you're that numb, maybe think about a field other than journalism.
Is it a big deal that the U.S. president is telling insane lies that he personally rushed to the site of 9/11 and heroically acted like a first responder himself?
Sorta seems like it should be!
