I had the pleasure of trying spatzle two summers ago. I’ve been hooked on it ever since, and a big bowl of it is the definition of comfort food. For those that don’t know, spatzle is a dumpling that is served in Germany and France, made out of flour, eggs, and milk. It’s an extremely…
Malala Yousafzai, at the Forbes Under 30 Summit in Philadelphia, shared with the world the message she had conveyed to President Obama while meeting with him in the Oval Office: if you send drones and guns to fight wars on foreign soil, you’ll arm the world and make it ready for war; if you send…
The rise of ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) seems to be ripped out of a novel with far too many turns after its climax. The United States has ended its original war in Iraq and is now in the process of winding down its other war in Afghanistan. In 2011, President Obama…

The United States has dominated the political scene ever since the end of the two world wars. We may be looked down upon when we are tourists in other countries, we may not have the highest scores on international student test rankings, we may not even have the most efficient economy—but there’s a silent respect…
Israel recently waged a new offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. After three Israeli teenagers were kidnapped in Hebron, Israel accused Hamas of the incident, yet offered no evidence to back up its assertion. Israel had also been accusing Hamas of rearming itself and firing rockets into southern Israeli territory for some time now….
