VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

Remember Afghan women

As the Taliban take control of all of Afghan-
istan, I do not worry about which American
administration is to blame for this disaster.
I also am not concerned about America’s
future role in Afghanistan.
I am disquieted about what the future
holds for the more than 19 million Afghan
women who have had some or even a
tremendous amount of personal freedom
for the past 20 years. Will members of the
Taliban go back to their pre-2001 practices
regarding women, or will they be more
“liberal” and behave more like the Saudis or
even Iranians?
People in the West, such as Hillary Clin-
ton, like to intone slogans such as: “Women’s
rights are human rights.” I agree. However,
a slogan without moral or physical force
behind it is just empty rhetoric.
May the women of Afghanistan weather
this latest catastrophe.
— Stan Palder, Chicago

GOP shifts amid extreme weather

But Republicans
not interested in
curbing emissions

WASHINGTON — After
a decade of disputing the
existence of climate change,

are shifting their posture
amid deadly heat waves,
devastating drought and
ferocious wildfires that have

Members of Congress
who long insisted that the
climate is changing due to
natural cycles have nota-

many now acknowledging

Secretive Israel-UAE oil deal

puts prized Eilat corals at risk
By Ilan Ben Zion
Associated Press

EILAT, Israel — The

Red Sea reefs off the Israeli
resort of Eilat host some of
the greatest coral diversity
on the planet.
A symphony in splen-
did technicolor, the reefs
are among the world’s
most resilient coral colo-
nies against warming seas.
They have also become
an unlikely battleground,
caught between Israeli
diplomatic and business
interests, and ecological
groups that fear this natural
treasure could be in danger.

Summer’s hot find: Boozy ice pops

By Melody Baetens
The Detroit News

Hard seltzer rocked the bever-

age market in 2019, causing an
explosion of brands to flood
store and bar shelves. Even beer
makers like Bud Light, Coors
and Corona got in on the action,
releasing cans of the sparkling,
alcoholic fruity drink.
This summer, the hot new find
is boozy ice pops: frozen wine,
seltzers or cocktails in a plastic
sleeve like the Fla-Vor-Ice from
childhood, but this time with an
AVB on the label.
Many have been around for a
season or two, but this summer
we’re seeing stores flooded with
a wide variety. Many are coming
from the same brands that
brought us hard seltzer.
Some are claiming to be low
