PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Elaine Duke is Positive . ISIS is on the run in Iraq and Syria  but  acting Secretary of Homeland Security Elaine Duke  said radical Islamic terrorists are plotting a new 9/11-scale attack.
In a speech at the U.S. embassy in London   Duke  said smaller  low-level attacks that include the use of everyday objects like knives and vehicles were designed to maintain their support while working on bigger attack targets  U.K.-based news outlets reported.
Referring to strikes in which terrorists have attacked people using knives or vehicles   Duke  said "Creating terror is their goal."
 Duke  warned it was taking less time for terrorists to plan attacks as they could exploit "safe spaces online" to evade detection  the outlet noted.
 She  added one of the biggest threats to the safety of aviation travel was the free movement of goods and people between countries.
"What we believe is that because of the movement of goods and people  we have to raise the baseline worldwide  we can't only consider our borders "  she  said.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Luke Cage is Neutral . Netflix just published the new âDefendersâ series  the culmination of several years of work by Marvel Television to get Marvel into prestige serial storytelling. (We have to find a new word for this: we canât call it âTVâ much longer.) The Marvel-Netflix deal now includes two seasons of âDaredevil â and one each of âJessica Jones â âLuke Cage â and âIron Fist.â Thatâs 65 episodes  plus the new eight-episode âDefenders â around 50 minutes each. Thatâs more than 60 hours on screen in the last two years.
Now  you can blame whatâs wrong with âThe Defendersâ on the Marvel shtick: America has no enemies but its own divisions. The heroes inevitably fight each other. That could work if you had writers who understood Americaâs divisions  but itâs disastrous when all youâve got is pettiness and liberal identity politics. âThe Defendersâ does better than any Marvel movie to give you thrilling fights  however. At least Daredevil does;  Luke Cage  is also pretty good; the other two were deficient to begin with and apparently not getting better.
There is a deep argument hidden somewhere in this mess of a story. But to see it develop  the viewer has to ask himself: why is Daredevil so scared of his own heroism  which might lead him to kill people? Heâs a Catholic  of course. And weâre reminded of that in an important scene in a confessional. But whatâs the import of that fact? Why is  Luke Cage  telling a grieving mother  he  learned about the power of prayer from  his  own father?  He âs an heir to MLKâs sacrifice and hope  as we know from  his  own show  but why does that matter here? The evil guys  too: why is their quest for immortality so evil or wrong? We all want to live as long as possible  anyway!
Instead  we get this mess of American social pathologies of individualism and evil ninjas. This is worthless for articulating the fight between two worlds  one dedicated to equality  the other inequality. Maybe future stories will get better. A friend pointed out that thereâs a lot of Christianity in the first season of âLuke Cage â and the second season is supposed to be more serious about civil rights. He also pointed out another sign of hope: civil rights are connected with the Second Amendment.
In my previous essay  I said high-flying civil rights rhetoric collapses in âLuke Cage.â Behold: in an emotional moment mid-season  Luke Cage tells a young black man-turned-criminal about Crispus Attucksâthe first man killed in the Boston Massacre of 1770  and thus  the first martyr of the American Revolution. He was black. We see his legacy exploited by a gangster and a politician  who abuse Harlem while pretending to save it. Unlike Attucks  they always put themselves first  because when they were poor  weak  and needed protection  nobody put them first.
 Luke Cage  takes a shot to the head from that stupid  scared young criminalâbut it makes no dramatic sense  with a literally bulletproof hero.  Luke Cage  is no Crispus Attucks. Our stories fake sacrifice  and thus betray our deepest awareness of our neediness. Thatâs because of our politics and our fear of death.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Bob Corker is Positive . Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN)  speaks with reporters after announcing  his  retirement at the conclusion of  his  term on Capitol Hill in Washington  U.S.  September 26  2017. REUTERS/Aaron P. Bernstein
WASHINGTON (Reuters)  - U.S. Senator Bob Corker   the influential Republican chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee  said on Tuesday he will not run for re-election  a blow to a party already struggling to balance divisions between mainstream and more populist wings.
An establishment Republican   Corker  has been criticized from the right  and a conservative activist had already announced a primary challenge. But he was expected to keep the seat  and had amassed a $7.5 million campaign war chest.
 Corker  has ruled out running for governor of Tennessee.
âI have no idea what Iâm going to do. No idea whatsoever â  Corker  said in an interview. But he said he was not leaving out of frustration over deep party divides that have often paralyzed Congress.
 Corker  announced  his  retirement on the day of the failure of the latest Republican effort to repeal former Democratic President Barack Obamaâs healthcare law.
âI am not going to be one of the people who leaves here badmouthing what is one of the greatest privileges of oneâs life â  Corker  said.
He said he realized he was ready to retire on Aug. 24 during a factory groundbreaking in Clarksville  Tennessee  and almost announced his decision at least twice before Tuesday.  Corker  said that he made his announcement now to allow a strong candidate time to enter the Senate race.
 Corker  is the first senator to announce  his  retirement ahead of the 2018 mid-term elections  when one-third of the 100-seat chamber will be up for grabs. Tennessee is a solidly Republican state and the party  which currently holds a 52-seat majority in the Senate  is favored to keep his seat.
In his official announcement   Corker  said that âafter much thought  consideration and family discussionâ over the past year  he and his wife Elizabeth âhave decided that I will leave the United States Senate when my term expires at the end of 2018.â

CLASHES WITH  TRUMP
In August  after Trumpâs much-criticized reaction to violence at a white supremacist rally in Virginia   Corker  told reporters in  his  home state Tennessee that Trump had not been able to demonstrate the âstabilityâ or competence that  he  needed to be successful as president.
After the exchange  the two men had an hour-long meeting at the White House this month that  Corker  has described as a wide-ranging and friendly discussion.
 Corker  will remain chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee until he leaves in January 2019. He said he wanted the panel to address issues including Secretary of State Rex Tillersonâs State Department reorganization  food aid reform  and the fight against human trafficking and modern slavery.
 Corker  said the committee would address the international nuclear agreement with Iran  as Trump faces a mid-October deadline for deciding whether to certify that Tehran is complying with that pact. That decision could force Congress to decide whether to reimpose sanctions.  Corker  would not say whether Trump had decided to certify or not.
