In 2012, after more than two decades living abroad, I returned to the U.S. - specifically to Denver, Colorado - where I help direct coverage of the United States as a Reuters national affairs editor. My husband was born and raised in the “Mile High City,” as Denver (which is perched 5,280 feet above sea level) is known, so I consider myself native-adjacent. I’m a city girl who enjoys the urban pleasures of my high-desert adopted hometown, and who bristles at visitors who see it as a place to pass through on the way to ski or hike in the Rocky Mountains. Here’s my take on how to see the city, the local way: Getting around: Public transit is one of those urban pleasures. I was bemused by a Denver Post headline last year proposing that it might be rude to ask visitors to take t...

Mosul’s Grand al-Nuri Mosque, known for its eight-century-old leaning minaret, destroyed by Islamic State militants in 2017, has been renovated in a boost for Iraq's second city as it rebuilds after long years of war. From the pulpit of this medieval mosque on July 4, 2014, Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared a self-styled ‘caliphate’ spanning parts of Syria and Iraq. Three years later, the ultra hardline group demolished the mosque in the final weeks of a U.S.-backed Iraqi campaign that ousted the jihadists from Mosul, their de facto capital in Iraq.
