It started with Secretary of State John Kerry. On Monday, he made the Obama Administration's preliminary case for a US attack on Syria. He promised an administration response, after watching the YouTube videos of people suffering from some sort of attack in Syria had...
A reader writes to make an excellent point about the pitfalls of focusing on the chemical weapons issue in Syria: What difference does it make if Obama has “evidence” or not that the Syrian government is using chemical weapons? It should be none of the business of the...
President Barack Obama is setting a new precedent in America’s history as an imperialist power. He is all but apologizing before he orders a military attack against a sovereign country with which the United States is not war, and which has not offended America’s vital...
