Announcing my annual win-a-trip contest: I'll pick a university student to travel with me on a reporting trip and potentially contribute a column to @nytopinion. If you know of university students who would be interested, make sure they know to apply: www.nytimes.com/2023/12/09/o...

When I was a student in 1982, I met two Palestinian students on a bus in the West Bank, and we hung out together. I hadn't been in touch since, but on this visit I looked them up. And therein lies a story of lost freedom, dignity and hope. A gift link: nyti.ms/49pixO4

Meet some magnificent people. They lost loved ones in the Hamas terror attacks, yet even in their grief and anguish they oppose a ground invasion of Gaza, or endless bombardment of Gaza. They don't want other innocents to suffer as they have: www.nytimes.com/2023/10/25/o...

My new column warns that we risk treating children in Gaza as lesser victims, somehow tainted by Hamas. I argue: We must not kill Gazan children to try to protect Israeli children." www.nytimes.com/2023/10/21/o...

Loneliness crushes the soul, but it also is as deadly as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. It is linked to strokes, heart disease, dementia and suicide: It breaks the heart literally as well as figuratively -- but we have solutions. My column on lessons learned: www.nytimes.com/2023/09/06/o...

You may not have heard of a place called Nagorno-Karabakh, but it's where Azerbaijan is starving an Armenian enclave, apparently to force an ethnic cleansing. Azerbaijan is hoping people are too distracted by Ukraine to notice; I hope YOU will notice: www.nytimes.com/2023/09/02/o...

A far-reaching change is sweeping the US: We're becoming less religious. Americans are praying less, attending church less, and we are less likely to say religion is "very important" in our lives. My column: www.nytimes.com/2023/08/23/o...
