In the City Journal, John McMillian revives the case for the “broken windows” theory of policing, which emphasizes dealing with minor offences such as disorderly behaviour because, if left unpunished, such violations beget more and worse crimes. McMillian retells the history of broken windows’ stunningly successful implementation in New York City in the 1990s – and calls for the policy to be applied once again.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
