The Issue: The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for mendacity to Congress and obstruction.
It’s gratifying to see justice served to former FBI Director James Comey (“Coming for Comey,” Sept. 27).
I’m wanting ahead to his conviction for mendacity and obstruction. Former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper are subsequent, and the large prize is Hillary Clinton.

The Issue: Delegates strolling out of Benjamin Netanyahu’s United Nations speech in protest.
I do know we’re not dwelling in Nirvana right here, however is it an excessive amount of to count on delegates of the United Nations to hearken to a speaker even when they disagree with him (“Can’t force Israel to destroy itself,” Michael Goodwin, Sept. 28)?
Talking heads are all the time telling people to hearken to opposing views and interact in dialogue. However, when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu started talking, delegates did the other.
Out of humanitarian concern for the lacking hostages, these delegates ought to have remained.
