American Greatness
November 1, 2026
Read The Full Story

Comparing the Ukraine-Russia “situation” to the impenetrable Gordian Knot of the ancient world, Victor Davis Hanson in American Greatness games five possible ways out of the slaughter: Russia settling, Ukrainian elections installing a new government that will settle, a coup removing Vladimir Putin, the Russian military collapsing, or Ukraine collapsing. Or the conflict could come to “resembl[e] the bella interrupta of the Middle East,” ending only when both sides literally run out of soldiers.

Educator, Refugee, War Criminal

In National Review, Jim Geraghty reviews the family history of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, now under investigation for lying about her age and using an alias on her U.S. immigration application. Geraghty notes that Omar’s father, who fled to Kenya before claiming refugee status and whom she describes as an “educator” back in Somalia, was actually a full colonel under military commander and later dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, whose regime fought a brutal war against Ethiopia and committed genocide in Somaliland.

Catalyst for Civilizational Collapse

There’s no longer any doubt, writes Spiked’s Brendan O’Neill: the radical left, “keffiyeh-adorned lowlifes”, Islamofascists and the Green Party of England all want the same thing. Not “to end the war in Gaza but to end Israel.” Their behaviour shows they actually enjoy Jewish suffering. If anti-Semites get their way, O’Neill warns, “7 October [will] look like a tea party.” And as Hannah Arendt famously warned, generalized Jew-hatred becomes the catalyst for civilizational ruin.

Britain’s Tories Continue to Avert Their Eyes

Although the hour in the UK is late indeed, the country’s Conservatives still seem scared to focus on the key issues of mass migration and multiculturalism, warns Fred de Fossard in The American Conservative. “If the party is serious about returning to power,” de Fossard writes, it must clearly commit to “reversing 30 years of political vandalism.” But to the dismay of many rank-and-file members, party brass remain dangerously aligned with Labour’s “open borders welfarism.”

“No” Sure Means a Lot More Than It Used to

Sexual assaults against U.S. women have dropped substantially, notes Christina Buttons in City Journal. But the unhinged coverage of the Cornell University “Jane Doe” group-sex scandal might lead most people to conclude the opposite. And that may not be a coincidence, Buttons suggests. The ever-expanding legal definition of sexual non-consent – silence, a lack of enthusiasm, intoxication and now, apparently, going back on a sworn statement – is “encourag[ing] women to reinterpret regretted sexual experiences as evidence that someone wronged them.”
