Obligation to remove threat of cluster munitions
Obligation to remove threat of cluster munitions
It was both a hopeful and a sobering visit we had recently to the Cooperative Orthotic and Prosthetic Enterprise (COPE), an innovative local organization in Vientiane, Lao PDR, that provides rehabilitation services to survivors of Unexploded Ordnance (UXO).

Is there no way out of N. Korean imbroglio?
Is there no way out of N. Korean imbroglio?
LOS ANGELES - It is probably a good idea to regard the latest bombastic threats from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea as one usually does: the antics of an angry child hurling the rattle out of the crib in hope of getting parents to pay more attention … and right now!

Appeal of fake news
Appeal of fake news
The English narration dubbed over the North Korean video paints a dystopian picture of life in America, where citizens are forced to eat snow to survive after they wiped out the bird population for food. Homeless people sit on park benches next to blue body bags filled with the remains of their deceased friends. Instead of spending money on essentials, Americans like to “buy ...

Jane and Henry
Jane and Henry
My daughter is two, and she already has a best friend. When she began to say intelligible words, one of the first to jump out of her mouth was her friend’s name. I’ll call her Jane. When we ask her, "Who’s your best friend?” she says with a smile, “Jane!” But we get the same response when we ask, “What’s your name?”

North Korea: opportunity amid threat
North Korea: opportunity amid threat
For the people of South Korea, North Korea is many things: a sister/brother nation divided by the constructions of history and politics, a land of family members separated by ideology and conflict, a country of hundreds of thousands of potential refugees, a nation with a military that threatens peace and stability and a society with starved and jailed citizens away from the c...

Dictator who likes basketball, not reform
Gone is the “Dear Leader” and sophisticated fashionista Kim Jong-il, with his platform shoes, bouffant hair, and oversize sun glasses. However, his son and “Great Successor” Kim Jong-un is fast becoming an international sensation, along with his wife, Ri Sol-ju, and U.S. basketball legend Dennis Rodman.

Middle East's lost decade
Middle East's lost decade
BERLIN - The United States has waged three wars since al-Qaida’s terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001: against al-Qaida, in Afghanistan, and in Iraq. The first two were forced upon the U.S., but the third was the result of a willful, deliberate decision by former President George W. Bush, taken on ideological grounds and, most likely, for personal reasons as well.

North Korea's March madness
North Korea's March madness
UNITED NATIONS - When the Security Council passed a package of uncharacteristically tough sanctions on North Korea over the communist regime’s nuclear weapons tests and missile proliferation, the Pyongyang leadership went rhetorically ballistic. Pyongyang’s pro forma rants and raves toward South Korea and the United States were notched up to include scrapping the 1953 armisti...

The Iraq war 10 years later
CAMBRIDGE ― This month marks the 10th anniversary of the controversial American-led invasion of Iraq. What has that decision wrought over the last decade? More important, was the decision to invade rightly made?

Korea's silver linings playbook
Korea's silver linings playbook
Every cloud has a silver lining as the saying goes and North Korea’s recent bellicose rhetoric might provide one example. Pyongyang’s war-like threats coming after its successful rocket launch and testing of its third nuclear bomb could provide an opportunity for regional cooperation in Northeast Asia, distracting China, Japan and South Korea from territorial disputes among t...
