Greatness Throughout the Americas

Jewish World Review
November 2, 2025
Read The Full Story

Dan McCarthy sees clever strategic calculation in Donald Trump’s seemingly haphazard bullying of Latin America. In going relentlessly after drug-funded thugocracies like Venezuela while buttering up – and if need be propping up – friendly leaders like Argentina’s Javier Milei, writes McCarthy in Jewish World Review, Trump is attempting to shape a Latin America that isn’t “forever plagued by cartels, communists and Chinese influence.”

How the Western News Media Came to “Trust Khomeini”

At Blacklisted, Eve Barlow reminds us of the mainstream media’s long shilling for the wrong side in the great saga of Iran. Consumed by hatred for the Shah, the CIA and the U.S. government, leading outlets like the New York Times promoted a murderous totalitarian – the Ayatollah Khomeini – as a reasonable answer to Iran’s problems. Barlow notes how the media have remained trapped in their moral inversion – to the very moment the mullahcracy finally appears set to topple.

A High-Five to Interchanges

At Pundicity, Bostonian Jeff Jacoby compares a city that builds to one that doesn’t. Dallas, Jacoby notes, has unapologetically expanded its road system and, consequently, the average Dallas resident wastes just 44 hours per year stuck in traffic. That’s barely half the average time spent idling in Jacoby’s famously congested hometown whose leaders, he notes pointedly, despise the automobile and halted major roadbuilding 50 years ago.

Beware the “Trusted Flagger”

In The European Conservative, John Rosenthal warns of a broadening European censorship complex that’s attempting not just to muzzle Europeans or control American tech platforms operating in the EU, but is going after the free speech of Americans in the U.S. Rosenthal profiles HateAid, a supposedly “independent” outfit that operates as “trusted flaggers” of suspect content for tech platforms, but is in fact supervised by government, funded by government and staffed by people with deep ties to the EU superstate.

A Dictator is Schooled in Energy Dominance

Who produces vastly more energy than it needs right now? The United States. So who needs Venezuela’s oil? Basically, nobody. That cold fact, writes Ben Cahill in Barron’s, is enabling the Trump Administration to further squeeze dictator Nicolas Maduro by blockading the nation’s oil exports. For decades, other countries used oil as a weapon against the U.S. Today the tables are turned and, Cahill notes, Venezuela’s decrepit industry is the one crying out for reinvestment.
