** After Cambodia Digs Out Survivors, Eyes Cast Toward China’s Belt and Road Initiative ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Skylar Lindsay on Aug 01, 2019 11:00 am
China’s Belt Road Initiative has brought lucrative Chinese investment into Cambodia, but at what cost for locals? In Sihanoukville, Cambodia, in June excavators carefully scooped piles of bent steel and rubble, moving it aside under the floodlights from a collapsed building.

** ‘Ghost Students,’ Embezzlement and Deregulation: The Shadow World of Charter Schools ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Will Bacha on Aug 01, 2019 07:00 am
Lack of regulation in the charter school industry is turning education into the hottest get rich quick scheme about town. One of the most crucial differences between charter schools and traditional public schools is how they are regulated. Charter schools are not subject to the same amount of laws regarding financial transparency as traditional public […]

------------------------------------------------------------
By Rami Almeghari on Aug 01, 2019 05:00 am

------------------------------------------------------------
By Guest Post on Jul 31, 2019 03:00 pm
“Proposing to register sulfoxaflor for use on bee-attractive crops, in the midst of an ongoing pollinator crisis, is the height of irresponsibility.” (By Beyond Pesticides) Earlier this month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a decision to register new uses for the bee-toxic pesticide sulfoxaflor. The decision closely followed a USDA announcement halting the Honey Bee Colonies Survey, […]

By Yasmeen Rasidi on Jul 31, 2019 01:11 pm
“If anyone dares to separate Taiwan from China, the Chinese army will certainly fight, resolutely defending the country’s sovereign unity and territorial integrity.” On Wednesday, July 24, China released its white paper on defense titled “China’s National Defense in The New Era,” which largely highlighted the country’s surge in military spending and blamed the U.S. […]

Only weeks after Sudan celebrated the signing of a power-sharing agreement between Sudan’s military and opposition groups, five high schoolers were killed by Sudan’s military while protesting.

------------------------------------------------------------
By Peter Castagno on Jul 31, 2019 07:00 am
“The EIB’s proposal to end financing for fossil fuels by 2020 is a massive step forward in climate leadership. With this move, the world’s largest multilateral lender is now poised to leave oil, gas and coal in the past.” The European Investment Bank, one of the world’s most powerful financial institutions, announced on Friday that […]

** Palestinian Authority Suspends All Agreements with Israel ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Rami Almeghari on Jul 31, 2019 05:00 am
“The demolition is a flagrant violation of those agreements and is null and void.” The Palestinian Authority (P.A.) president, Mahmoud Abbas, told P.A. officials and other Palestinian leaders during a meeting last Thursday, that the P.A. will stop abiding by past peace agreements with Israel. The P.A.’s unilateral decision came in the wake of Israeli […]

The missile test, North Korea’s state press claimed, […]

** The Death of the Moderate Position in the Abortion Debate ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Wess Haubrich on Jul 30, 2019 02:09 pm
An abstinence only program in Montana told teens that “condoms cause cancer,” birth control pills are only 20% effective and cause cervical cancer and sterility. The American experiment is a beautifully chaotic thing. Opposing sides go at it and are supposed to hammer out a compromise in the process – getting to a position both […]

By Peter Castagno on Jul 30, 2019 01:00 pm
“There’s a certain irony in hearing the president attacking a city and region when his own son-in-law was directly involved in creating the conditions where that quality of life was threatened.” President Trump targeted Baltimore in his most recent Twitter outburst, describing Rep.
