The Big Step Ukraine Must Take
The reforms demanded by the International Monetary Fund and European Union provide the best chance for Ukraine to overcome the legacy of socialism and corruption that have left its people impoverished and its economy the least free in Europe. Here’s the problem in a nutshell. Ukraine has never had an open, market-based economy.

There’s an Intelligence Crisis at the White House
In an increasingly unsettled world, where the president wants a smaller military and a more reticent foreign policy, does having less awareness of what is going on abroad make sense?

Why Is This Government Program Allowed to Hurt American Companies?
When federal subsidies to foreign firms threaten American jobs, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle find common cause. Taxpayers should not be financing overseas business ventures that undercut U.S. companies. The culprit is the Export-Import Bank, a little-known government agency that “facilitates” U.S. exports by doling out loans and loan guarantees as well as providing capital and credit insurance.

Kyrgyz Pastor Kept From Brother’s Funeral By Local Imam
ICC Note: In yet another example of Kyrgyz Christians being denied access to village cemeteries to bury their loved ones, a pastor was kept from attending his brother’s funeral by a local imam. Though village cemeteries are regulated by civil authorities and governed by Kyrgyzstan’s secular state laws, some government officials defer to Muslim-majority demands to bar Christians from burying their family members in peace.

Representative Chris Smith Visits Nigeria, Speaks with Boko Haram Survivors
ICC Note: Representative Chris Smith of New Jersey visited Nigeria the weekend of June 6 to meet with victims of Boko Haram. Addressing members of the press, Smith said, "The international community can and must play a robust supporting role especially in the area of intelligence and counterinsurgency training." Smith is an outspoken member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs known for the pressure he placed on the Department of State to designate Boko Haram a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). The Department did so in November of 2013.

Father of Abducted Priest in Afghanistan Speaks Out
ICC Note: Last Monday, June 2, a Jesuit priest working in Afghanistan's Herat province was abducted by unknown gunmen. Since the abduction, no group has taken responsibility or has made ransom demands. The motivation behind the abduction still remain unclear, but some sources indicate that the priest may had been abducted because he is a foreigner. Now, almost a week after the abduction, the priest's father is questioning why anyone would want to kidnap his son. Please pray for the safe return of the priest.

North Korea: God’s Light Shines In The Darkest Night
10 Reasons North Korea is Not the Worst Place to Be a Christian
ICC Note: North Korean regime is one of the top persecutors of Christians in the world. Pastor Eric Foley's comments in the article show that, even in the darkest night, God's light shines and His people will see the hope, mercy, and miracles from Him and grow to be more like Jesus. The Bible teaches that "If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. Now you are the body of Christ and each one of you is a part of it." (I Corinthian 12:26-27) ICC continues to fix eyes upon God and looks for ways to serve our persecuted brothers and sisters.

Miss Pennsylvania USA’s remarkable mother
Valerie Gatto does not want to talk about abortion. That’s probably prudent, inasmuch as she very much desires to be the next Miss USA, and contestants in that pageant are expected to have ruthlessly anodyne interests along the lines of reading children’s literature to blind dolphins. But she is admirably direct, even bracing, about the aspect of her life that intersects that troublesome issue: She was conceived when her mother, a teenager at the time, was attacked on the streets of Pittsburgh and raped at knifepoint.

Should We Measure Nature's Wealth For a More Sustainable Planet?
Imagine that you are considering selling stocks that you own in a company. You would probably consider how much the shares are worth today, how much they might be worth in the future and how much you might receive in dividend payments for each year you hold onto the stock. Much of your decision is informed by market wisdom and research. Now imagine that you manage acres of old-growth forest -- or another natural resource, like some fish in the ocean. How do you decide whether to use the resource now or conserve it as natural capital for the future?
