The repercussions of this failed assassination attempt could have far-reaching implications for both countries and the Middle East as a whole.… Continue reading

On one hand, as an individual who does not particularly hold Trump in high regard, I understand the sentiment shared by many that an attempt on his life transcends personal opinions and delves into the realm of international relations and respect for the sanctity of life.
