In Reply Regarding our recent article reporting the 2-year outcomes after MIST in preterm infants, Drs Liu and Shi inquire why the BSID-IV was not used for assessment of neurodevelopmental disability. The explanation is that the BSID-IV was published in 2019, which was 5 years after the follow-up assessments were commenced for our study. We do not agree that the PARCA-R, which was used for 83% of our follow-up assessments, is unreliable; evaluation of its performance suggests the opposite. The subjectivity of a parent report of their child's abilities is unquestioned, but the potential influence of this on the fi…

To the Editor The proposal to cap nicotine concentrations in combustible cigarettes is based on sound scientific evidence that cigarettes with very low levels of nicotine will significantly reduce smoking- and tobacco-related harm. However, we believe that a proposal presented in a recent Viewpoint for a federal nicotine cap on e-cigarettes is misguided and runs contrary to current evidence. The focus on e-liquid nicotine concentrations alone is problematic because these restrictions fail to consider that e-cigarettes, unlike cigarettes, offer users ways beyond nicotine concentrations to control nicotine delivery…

The International Court of Justice's genocide ruling shows Israel is no longer viewed as the eternal victim, and the Holocaust no longer shields it from scrutiny for the most grave crimes against humanity.
The U.S. government threatens further regional violence on the heels of drone attack that killed three American troops in Jordan. Human rights groups slam countries for pulling funding for UNRWA as Palestinians in Gaza face famine and starvation.
Some have argued that the ICJ ruling on the Gaza genocide proves that international law is a tool of the dominant, too corrupted by the great powers to achieve true justice. But the ICJ offered a way of isolating Israel, and that is a source of hope.
Maree F Roberts reviews Vincent Bevins' book If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade and the Missing Revolution. which chronicles the 2010's uprisings in Egypt, Brazil, Turkey, Ukraine and elsewhere, and asks why these mass protest movements failed to bring about revolutionary change.
Several of Israel's allies have suspended funding to the United Nations agency for Palestine refugees (UNRWA) following allegations that 12 of its employees were involved in the October 7 attacks led by Hamas, reports Maureen Clare Murphy.
The International Court of Justice in The Hague ruled last week that Israel must prevent genocide in Gaza and provide greater assistance to the Palestinians. Sadly, the ICJ did not call for a cease-fire, which is desperately needed, but it demonstrated genuine understanding of the Israeli war crimes that point to genocidal intentions as stipulated by the Geneva International Genocide Convention in 1948. 
In October 2023, 10 members of the German parliament (Bundestag) left Die Linke (the Left) and declared their intention to form their own party. With their departure, Die Linke's parliamentary group fell to 28 out of the 736 members of the Bundestag, compared to the 78 members of the far-right Alliance for Germany (AfD). One of the reasons for the departure of these 10 MPs is that they believe that Die Linke has lost touch with its working-class base, whose decomposition over issues …

Cognitive warfare is no longer science fiction. Cognitive warfare is a fact of the modern age and everyone, whether civilian or military, is a potential target.

Egyptian border officials are charging Palestinians in Gaza thousands of dollars to escape death in Gaza. And even those who manage to raise the exorbitant price through GoFundMe campaigns have not been let through for months.
The Biden administration is on trial in the United States for failure to prevent the "unfolding genocide" in Gaza. On Friday, lawyers for the Biden administration argued the court lacks the proper jurisdiction to decide the case, while Palestinians and Americans testified about atrocities committed by Israel with American support. "I can't think of another time where, in a U.S. federal court, Palestinians have been on the witness stand, one after the other after the other, describing their experiences under Israeli occupation," says Diala Shamas, senior staff attorney at the Center f…
We get an update on conditions in southern Gaza's Khan Younis area, where displaced Palestinians who fled there to seek refuge are reporting heavy aerial and tank fire as Israel intensifies its ground offensive around two main hospitals there.

On the same day the U.N.'s highest court accepted South Africa's case alleging genocide in Gaza, Israel accused 12 employees with the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, or UNRWA, of taking part in the Hamas attack on October 7.

"It's the worst possible reaction to these allegations," says Jan Egeland, secretary general of the Norwegian Refugee Council. He calls for an investigation but s…
The Pentagon is accusing Iranian-backed militants of killing three U.S. soldiers in a drone strike at a base in Jordan along the Syrian border, making the troops the first U.S. armed forces killed by enemy fire in the region since October 7. A group called the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has claimed responsibility for the attack and said attacks would escalate if the U.S. continues to support Israel during the latter's destruction of Gaza. President Biden vowed the U.S. would respond. "There will be more of these attacks, for sure," says Palestinian American journalist Rami Khouri, who lays out t…
