Karl Rove, former Deputy Chief of Staff to president George W. Bush, expresses the concern on the Republican side on U.S. president Obama's thinking about Islamic terrorism expressed in recent speeches and interviews. Obama told CNN interviewer Zakaria that it was wrong to suggest that terrorist networks were "an existential threat to the U.S. or the world order." Earlier references to the Islamic State as a "javvee team" in 2014 show the U.S. president unable to take the situation seriously. Rove questions the president's claim that "we ended two wars in a responsible way." The situation in Iraq especially has seen significant reversal since Bush's second term.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
