Reducing the threat of Armageddon
President Obama achieved a major foreign policy goal in 2010 when he concluded the New START Treaty committing the U.S. and Russia to reduce the size of their long-range nuclear arsenals by a third within six years, to 1,550 warheads on each side. But...

Sun fires blanks on gun law
The liberal media, of which The Sun is unapologetically a part, has failed to report on the fact that George Zimmerman was confronted not by a Barack Obama look-alike or 17-year-old cherubic-faced "child," but by a young man well over six feet in height...Tags: United Nations, Interior Policy, Gun Control, Jack Nicholson, Personal Weapon Control

Obama unleashed
Politicians and presidents of both parties have occasionally suffered from open-mic syndrome, saying something when they thought the microphone was turned off they wished had not been made public. The latest to fall prey to that amplification of the...

10th anniversary of Pearl Harbor was low-key
The Sept. 11 observances that were the focus of much of the nation last weekend were in marked contrast to the somewhat understated 10th anniversary of the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. Perhaps what presaged this change was TV's ascendancy and power,...Tags: Key West, The New York Times, Frederick (Frederick, Maryland), Transportation Accidents, The Washington Post

Jerusalem belongs to the Jews
Like most such dialogues, the recent discussions about Israel and Palestine at the U.N. ignore international treaty law ("Bid for statehood may end," Sept. 21). Jews were given legal and political rights to what is now called Palestine in 1920, when...Tags: Jerusalem (Israel), World War I (1914-1918), Armed Conflicts, Civil Unrest, Judaism

A U.S. veto of Palestinian statehood would uphold international law
I disagree with Ariel Ilan Roth's op-ed "U.S. is Wrong on Palestine" (Sept. 21). I will make a purely legal argument why the U.S. should veto Palestine's unilateral attempt for statehood in the United Nations. The following information is from the...Tags: United Nations, Gaza Strip, Israel, West Bank, Documentary (genre)

Benefit of trade pacts greatly overstated
Your editorial on pending trade agreements ("The benefits of trade," Oct. 6) reports projected benefits to the depressed U.S. economy from the proposed trade deals with South Korea, Colombia, and Panama of $12 billion in exports and tens of thousands of...Tags: Mexico, Trade Balance

Unfair trade agreements got us into this mess; fair trade would get us out
This ongoing Occupy Wall Street protest movements are the result of the Obama administration and Congress' mismanagement of foreign trade. When the real story is told it will be seen that it is unfair trade agreements such as NAFTA and others that have...Tags: Mergers, Acquisitions and Takeovers, Electronics, Trade Agreements, Employees, Economic Organization

NAFTA has failed Maryland and U.S.
When free trade proponents sold the American people on the idea of the North American Free Trade Agreement, they promised that it would be a boon economically. Evidence, however, suggests that it has been anything but. Since NAFTA's implementation,...Tags: Migration, Economic Organization, Trade Policy, Trade Agreements, Trade Dispute

Torture: Wrong then, still wrong now
The images of the burning towers on Sept. 11 are seared into our collective memory. It seemed unthinkable that we could be attacked on our native soil.
During our nation's founding, we were also attacked on our soil. And though the British who captured...Tags: Ronald Reagan, U.S. Department of Justice, Dick Cheney, George Washington, Human Rights Watch

Rick Perry is no Ron Paul
Thrilled as I was with Texas Rep. Ron Paul's good showing as a truly constitutional candidate in the Iowa straw poll, I am concerned that Texas Gov. Rick Perry will be seen in the same light. Granted, Governor Perry is the top elected official of a...Tags: Migration, Tea Party Movement, Regional Authority, Executive Branch, Government

Voting against in-state tuition for children of illegal immigrants ruins both young people and America
I was disappointed to read "In-state tuition opponents have the signatures for referendum" (July 8). Maryland's new law would have extended in-state tuition rates to young, undocumented residents, but now the law has been blocked, and it will await the...Tags: Migration, Colleges and Universities, Juvenile Delinquency, Immigration, Labor Legislation
