Commentary
With the generally benign Pax Americana of freedom of the seas, stable financial institutions, and deterrence of direct, large-scale attacks on open societies under increasing assault, it’s good to read headlines like “Latest wave of U.S., Britain strikes on Yemen’s Houthis had support of Canada.” Good here meaning “bad” because it’s false… and worse.
