of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl party run from policemen during a
protest against the amendment bill on semi-autonomous Federally
Administered Tribal Areas in front of province assembly, in Peshawar on
May 27, 2018.
Pakistan passed legislation on May 24 paving the way for its restive
tribal areas, long a focal point in the global war on terror, to enter
the political mainstream, ending a colonial-era arrangement that
endorsed collective punishment and fueled militancy.The constitutional
amendment would see the semi-autonomous Federally Administered Tribal
Areas along the border with Afghanistan officially merged into
neighboring Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

"These
are some of our Marines buried here," said U.S. Marine Sergeant Major
Darrell Carver of the 6th Marine Regiment as he walks among the graves
of U.S. soldiers, most of them killed in the World War I Battle of
Belleau Wood, during a ceremony to commemorate the 100th anniversary of
the battle on Memorial Day at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery on May
27, 2018 near Chateau-Thierry, France. Nearly 100 years before U.S.
soldiers, including Marines from the 6th Regiment, repelled repeated
assaults from a German advance at Belleau Wood only 60 miles from Paris.
The U.S. suffered approximately 10,000 casualties in the month-long
battle, including nearly 2,000 dead. Today the Battle of Belleau Wood is
central to the lore of U.S. Marines. Sean Gallup, Getty Images
