As Israel's impending ground invasion of Rafah looms without a ceasefire agreement in sight, the 1.5 million people crammed into Gaza's southernmost city fear that they will spend Ramadan under Israeli fire.
Israel is taking advantage of the war on Gaza to exert control over the al-Aqsa Mosque compound and prevent Palestinians from visiting. With the month of Ramadan set to start, Israeli authorities intend to tighten restrictions even further.

As a child in New Jersey, I grew up hearing stories of my mother's flight attendant days in South Korea. A few stuck out to me even at a young age — such as hearing she needed to maintain a certain weight to get into the flight attendant program and that she had to quit her job once she got married. I couldn't understand why my mother had to quit her dream job, the job that allowed her to travel to Hawaii and Paris, the two places she had always wanted to go since she was little, just because she got married. My mother also told me how women either lied about being married to keep their jobs or were pres…

Inspired by the attacks of September 11th, the New Atheism appeared on the scene shortly after the invasion of Iraq in 2003. It became immediately clear that the Four Horsemen were exploiting Enlightenment principles to justify the bombing of women and children in third world nations.
