      Quality of life in iraq is up on almost every metric since saddam. In 100 years people will be saying iraq was a good result and NK was a horrible mistake to let a dictator get nukes.
      You can make the argument it was bad from an American perspective because it was a bad investment, but otherwise iraq is better off now

        When was the exact moment, according to your evaluation metrics, that it switched from being worse off to better off.

    Every issue there is an obituary, and I would argue the obituary alone is worth the subscription.

    reuters world news is pretty good, and you can use something like rss.app to make a feed(and print it out with some scripting shenanigans if you want). doesnt go into a lot of detail but that keeps it very consistent and removes most of the moralizing (although it is definitely biased towards a UN point of view in what it chooses to run). make sure to filter out explainer articles.

    I always try to read it in the library. It is quite expensive for my budget but many libraries have them. You can check your local library if you don't want to spend the money.

    You have to read it through the lens of what it is: neoliberal semi-libertarian propaganda. Front page right now is about how greedflation isn't a thing but we all know it is.

    Foreign Policy has interesting, high quality material. Opening them in private browsing bypasses the paywall.

    I was always a big U.S. News And World Report kind of guy in high school. Wonder how they’re holding up today.
