President Trump defies his own hawkish administration, refuses new sanctions against Russia

President Donald Trump has made a new move, which is simply NOT to move in pressing new sanctions against the Russian Federation in regards to their support of the Syrian regime under President Bashar al-Assad. This move came as a surprise, because only hours before the US envoy to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, was presenting the move for such new and severe sanctions against Russia.
Sputnik News reports that White House Spokeswoman Sarah Sanders announced that the imposition of new sanctions was being placed on hold.
This naturally produced a media firestorm.

Does reason or faith or tradition provide greater closure?

Critical Thinking Doesn't Mean What Most People Think

Too often in practice, people equate critical thinking with merely being skeptical. Or they will interpret it to mean that, when confronted with something that they disagree with, they either stop listening or attempt to "educate" the speaker about why their statement is flawed. People are much less likely to endure the uncomfortable task of examining their own beliefs.
