The road less traveled.
Will it be ever a peace in the Middle East?
One can imagine, hope,  and dream. I'm not optimistic yet for a reason.

Piece by piece, New Orleans' landscape is changing as city workers take down massive works of bronze and stone that once seemed immoveable in a region where some still cling to a Confederate legacy.   A statue of Confederate Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard, the third of four monuments city officials plan to take down



 "While we must honor our history, we will not allow the Confederacy to be put on a pedestal in the heart of New Orleans."

Donald Trump praised the Egyptian President again during his first overseas trip, saying “safety seems to be very strong” and accepted the invitation to visit Cairo.
President Trump made the remarks after meeting President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi,
Mr Trump claimed he was having “very, very important talks” with President al-Sisi, and that the pair had been talking “positively”.

Two strong leaders connecting. Just a thought.

The country has carried out a strong crackdown on Isis since ousting former President Mohamed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood in 2013. During the next four years, hundreds of Egyptian police and soldiers have been killed while fighting militants in Sinai. 

Egypt declared a three-month state of emergency last month after two Isis church bombings killed 45 people.

According to Human Rights Watch, tens of thousands of political dissidents and human rights activists remain in Egyptian jails due to the current President's policies.

How do poor countries survive the constant attacks by terrorist in their own countries? And what other opinion can Human Rights provide for those who are being victimized frequently?

The watchdog function is often the hardest to perform well. Government agencies and officials are not always willing to be transparent, especially if there is no tradition of public scrutiny.
"Freedom of speech and exchange of information are not just luxuries, they are the currency on which global commerce, politics, and culture increasingly depend."  Responsible media is a key as well to avoid one sided report, fake reporting or in accurate.

Ed Rendell, 72, was discussing Trump’s electoral prospects in the suburbs of Philadelphia  when his comments suddenly began to resemble the mogul’s. 


Trump’s comments like ‘You can’t be a 10 if you’re flat-chested,’ that’ll come back to haunt him,” Rendell said.   
There are probably more ugly women in America than attractive women. People take that stuff personally,” said Rendell, who is a superdelegate in the Democratic race backing Clinton's.
   
A representative for the Clinton campaign didn’t respond to questions about Rendell’s comments.
The former elected official later apologized.  


Hillary Clinton is disparate to frame Trump's relationship with women as demeaning and unhealthy. 
Considering Trump's involvement with women in many different TV shows, I don't see Clinton's  accusation as fair. To label  the guy with these accusation repeatedly, will back fire.  Just a thought.
