Michael Lewis: "How can a guy=working from his parents’ house in suburban England whose only act=onable orders were to BUY stock market futures cause such a sensational co=lapse in U.S. stocks?" Matt Levine: "There are many =essages between Deutsche Bank manipulators and their buddies at other bank= that suggest not a war of high-Libor banks against low-Libor banks, but r=ther a market that was easily manipulated by a plurality of banks acting t=gether as a team." Re=d more...

EUROPE

The Editors: "On Friday, Pres=dent Barack Obama will issue his seventh annual statement about the genoci=e of at least 1 million Ottoman Armenians 100 years ago. And, for the seve=th consecutive year, he reportedly will fail to call it genocide." =span class="topic-read-more" style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;text=decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;font-weight:normal;font-size:17px;line-heigh=:1.6em;text-transform:none">Read more...

Mark Gilbert: "Austrian-Briti=h philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein argued that trying to discuss private se=sations such as pain is impossible because 'it is not a something, but not=a nothing either.' That enigmatic statement is a useful way to reflect on =hether a bad outcome for Greece will have a contagious effect on other mem=ers of the euro zone."

DECLASSIFIED

Josh Rogin: "The U.S. governm=nt and intelligence community had lost the trail of kidnapped aid contract=r Warren Weinstein long before his death in a counterterrorism strike in J=nuary, according to several top administration officials who were deeply i=volved in the search." The accident "now has the administration and Congre=s rethinking how the U.S. will conduct its secret war." Read more...

TERRORISM

Stephen L. Carter: "There is =n eerie Orwellian cost to the Obama administration's refusal to use the te=m 'War on Terror' to describe its ... war on terror." Read more...

FOREIGN POLICY

James Gibney: "National secur=ty issues are likely to figure prominently in the 2016 election, and Repub=ican candidates are already stepping up their attacks on the 'Obama-Clinto= foreign policy,' which they claim has led to an alarming decline in U.S. =lobal influence." Rea= more...

WAR

The Editors: "In his admirabl= direct statement Thursday about the U.S. drone strike three months ago th=t killed two Westerners held by al-Qaeda, President Barack Obama said: 'I =ake full responsibility.' He shouldn’t. The Central Intelligence A=ency, Pentagon and especially Congress all have some accountability for Am=rica's drone war and the innocents who have died in it." Read more...

ENTERTAINMENT

Justin Fox: "The idea of stee=ing more music revenue to musicians may well have wide appeal, but the mus=cian-owners of Tidal don’t seem to know how to sell it. ... By rep=atedly declaring that the tech companies are the new music icons, Team Tid=l may simply have reinforced in consumers’ minds the idea that tec= companies are the new music icons." <= href="http://link.mail.bloombergview.com/55086a4c3b35d051538c37cc2j0yx.=6pl/VTlxEEmOgzjKMmURB3688" style="text-decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;lin=-height:1.6em">Read more...

2016 ELECTIONS

Jonathan Bernstein: "It is un=ikely but not impossible that the scandals involving the Clinton Foundatio= will move votes in 2016. We’ll have to see what the evidence says= But Benghazi?" Read =ore...

Bernstein: "Carly Fiorina, th= former chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard, ran for office once an= lost badly. Yet as the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, she is =lanning to formally declare her candidacy for the Republican presidential =omination on May 4. Bottom line: No candidate with similar (lack of) conve=tional credentials has come remotely close to a nomination during the mode=n era." Read more...<=a>

ASIAN ECONOMY

William Pesek: "As Japanese P=ime Minister Shinzo Abe heads to the United States this weekend, the Nikke= stock exchange has provided him with a triumphant talking point. When he =isited the New York Stock Exchange in 2013, he urged traders to 'buy my Ab=nomics' -- and buy they have. ... The question now is whether Japanese cor=orations can produce the profits to sustain the rally." Read more...

COMPANIES

Carter: "It’s often a=serted that 'business' has a particular moral duty to hire, a proposition =hat would successfully distinguish the corporation from the family. But th= proposition is unpersuasive. The fact that the private sector might creat= jobs does not mean that the private sector exists in order to create jobs=" Read more...<=span>
