The Kurds enter the spotlight amid the ongoing Iran war as patterns of strikes[i] in the country’s Kurdish-majority provinces appear aimed at opening a new front along the Iran-Iraq border. While Iranian Kurdish forces are among the most organized and reliable opposition groups, arming them without building a broad, cross-ethnic Iranian opposition coalition might risk fuelling sectarian tensions and widening the war, potentially drawing other countries in the region into the conflict. Any support for Kurdish groups should be embedded in a broader effort to form a national coalition uniting fragmented opposition groups around the shared vision of a democratic and pluralistic Iran. Iranian Kurdish parties have already formed a political alliance[iii] to coordinate their activities and advance Kurdish political aspirations. In the current landscape, the position of Iranian Kurdish groups is deeply precarious.

The Trump administration has identified a new enemy in its war on Iran, said Caitlin Vogus in The Guardian: the American media. This ongoing crusade against the free press is deeply un-American, but also highly revealing, said Steve Benen in MS.now. When a war is going well, administrations typically don’t “whine incessantly about media coverage” and threaten news organizations.

The WARN Act is a federal law passed in 1988 by Congress that requires employers with 100 or more employees to provide a 60-day notice of significant layoffs or plant closings. The WARN Act aims to reduce the impact of sudden job loss on workers and communities by ensuring they have sufficient time to transition. It is possible that a temporary layoff may still violate the WARN Act if it ends up lasting longer than six months. Employers who do not follow the WARN Act rules, either by giving notice too late or providing unclear notices, may have to pay employees back pay and benefits for the time they were in violation. If you or someone you know was laid off from WP Company LLC dba The Washington Post in Washington, D.C., we would like to speak with you about your rights and potential legal remedies.

It’s now happening with President Donald Trump’s foolhardy war against Iran. But it wasn’t until Trump came to power that the U.S. finally agreed to attack Iran — first last June and then again on Feb. 28. But in trying to manufacture a casus belli with Iran, Trump and his aides inadvertently helped foster conspiracy theories about Israel. “The United States knew nothing about this particular attack,” Trump wrote on social media, even though Israeli officials told journalists they had informed their U.S. counterparts beforehand. The more the Iran war is blamed on Israel, the more it will do to turn public opinion against the Jewish state.
