Opinion | Does the Trump Administration Really Want More Teen Pregnancies?

UW-Madison student in Iran sees civilians bearing brunt of war Tahereh Rahimi, an Iranian UW-Madison Ph.D. student, says U.S. strikes shook her home, underscoring war’s toll on civilians.

"Rahimi said the experience has only reinforced her belief that civilians — not governments — bear the greatest cost of war, and that Iranians do not need to be rescued by the United States." captimes.com/news/governm...

Great work here by U of Texas students. "the Editorial Board has lost faith in this administration and our lawmakers. UT should not serve its legislative bodies, it should serve its students. And yet, it appears to do the opposite."
