The Daily Signal - It Doesn’t Matter if Iran Can Build a Bomb. It Matters if America Has the Guts To Bomb Them, Again

Leaked defense intelligence documents obtained by CNN allege that last Saturday night’s strike against Iran’s nuclear infrastructure only set the country’s nuclear program back a few months.  However, the CIA reported this week that it would take “years” for Iran to rebuild its nuclear capabilities.  Bottom line: It doesn’t matter how long it takes Iran to rebuild its nuclear weapon’s program. What matters is will the next presidential administration have the courage to take the Iranian threat serious and bomb them, again, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”    👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Consider This from NPR - Autism rates have exploded. Could the definition be partly to blame?

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has spent years spreading doubt about the safety of vaccines and linking them to autism.

Dozens of studies have debunked the theory, but it has nevertheless persisted for years. Part of the reason why may be that autism diagnoses have soared over the last few decades.

Dr. Allen Frances is psychiatrist who led the task force that created the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which expanded the definition of Autism. Frances says that expanded definition played a role in the increase.

Rates of autism have exploded in recent decades. Could the clinical definition of autism itself be partly to blame?
