President Donald Trump, who has been pressing allies to help safeguard the critical waterway, fumed on Tuesday that the U.S. is not getting support “despite the fact that almost every Country strongly agreed with what we are doing, and that Iran cannot” be allowed to secure a nuclear weapon.
In England, I lived in a house built in the early 1600s. It was nice, though there were no longer any right angles or level floors in the place. When I bought a place, I went for something more modern, built in the 1880s.
There’s a pub not far from here that was built in the mid-800s, though it wasn’t always used as a pub. It started as a longhouse: animals at one end, people at the other, fire pit on the floor in the middle. Now that it’s a pub, based on the clientele I’ve seen in there, the animals are at both ends.
