Vanity keeps people from admitting they've been wrong. Pride will not let them believe they have been. The President & his team, most in Congress, and some common people suffer from this refusal to be honest with themselves. This is how they protect their egos - and that is all those who ignore the truth have left at the end of the day.
Three months into the new U.S. military strategy that has sent tens of thousands of additional troops into Iraq, overall levels of violence in the country have not decreased, as attacks have shifted away from Baghdad and Anbar, where American forces are concentrated, only to rise in most other provinces, according to a Pentagon report released yest
I was shocked to find out tonight that the United States was arming Sunni insurgents in Iraq so long as they promise to use them against the bad guys and not us. I was doubly shocked to find out that they've quietly been doing this for the last few months.
The long-awaited testimony of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and former CIA Director George Tenet on prewar intelligence on Iraq has been postponed while the members continue to interview key players in the events leading up to then-Secretary of State Colin Powell's infamous 2003 speech at the United Nations.
"The executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is or is not cause for declaring war." - James Madison
The reason the catastrophe will be so immense is because our nuclear missiles will be vaporizing nuclear sites. When these sites are vaporized, all the enriched uranium and plutonium stockpiled there will be shot into the atmosphere as "weaponized" particles, along with the radioactive particles from the warheads themselves.
A review of Noam Chomsky's new book, "Interventions," which is a collection of essays on American policy since 9-11. Chomsky's first essay is titled "9/11: Lessons Unlearned" in which he addresses the question: "Why do they hate us?"
Twenty three of the coolest people I've ever met geared up by putting on costumes, make-up, and even wigs, for the grueling brawl that ensued as we all tried to wax the stage with one another in an art form whose name betrays its beauty: AIR GUITAR.

This morning on FOX News Live, anchor Jon Scott interviewed former U. N. Ambassador John Bolton. As most people know, Bolton has been one of the most vocal supporters of attacking Iran.
* Fiscal 2008 defense authorization bill to include withdrawal date, Reid says * Second approach would cut off funding for the war in April 2008 * Debate will begin before end of June, majority leader says * Another proposal would mandate down time between deployments
For countries - small, middling, or great - acquiring nuclear weapons is all about the most basic requirement: the survival of the regime or nation. Joining the "nuclear club" has proved an effective strategy for survival.
the Constitution gives congress, and congress alone, the ability to declare war. What is the branch of the U.S. government that moves the slowest, has the most debate, is most subject to the changing demands of the citizens, and is the most likely to spend months or even years talking without ever taking meaningfull action? The Congress. That is by
The war in Iraq goes on, but we shouldn't let it overshadow the war at home - one that frequently takes the lives of people who don't deserve to die. It's known as the war on drugs, but it's really a war on people who themselves are not making war against anyone
"This is a really bad idea, one that will only feed the image of the US as the occupier, the colonial power," says a former official with the American provisional authority. "There's no way long-term military bases are going to be acceptable to a majority of the Iraqi population."
The idea of fighting a war on behalf of U.S. credibility hasn't been debated since the height of the Vietnam War. Yet that is precisely what some Iraq war supporters are now advocating.
The next foreign policy crisis won't be the Islamic Republic. Instead, look at the country the U.S. once threatened to bomb back into the Stone Age.
"I believe our efforts should be diplomatic in nature," Reid said, citing the recommendations of the Iraq Study Group and others to hold a regional conference to resolve security issues in the Middle East.

The Bush administration cannot legally detain an immigrant it believes is an al-Qaida sleeper agent without charging him, a divided federal appeals court ruled Monday. In the 2-1 decision, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel found that the federal Military Commissions Act doesn't strip Ali al-Marri of his constitutional rights to challen
A FORMER US Army torturer has described the traumatic effects of American interrogation techniques in Iraq - on their victims and on the perpetrators themselves.
I have long admired those who, throughout history as well in the present, have spoken truth to power and stood up against tyranny, especially when it mattered most, and especially when it was most difficult.
"As I sit here in DFW international airport and wait to return from leave, I am struck by the willful ignorance of those who support this war. These men and women, generally meaning the best, choose to ignore and discard any negative news coming from Iraq as biased against anything from the military, the war, or the President."
On a winter day when bomb blasts at an Iraqi university killed dozens and the UN estimated that 34,000 civilians in Iraq had died in 2006, MSNBC spent nearly nine minutes on the stories during the 1 p.m. hour. A CNN correspondent in Iraq did a three-minute report about the bombings. Neither story merited a mention on Fox News Channel that hour.
Does the United States have an opposition media? During the Cold War, if an American journalist or visitor to the Soviet Union reported seeing churches full of people, this was taken as a sign that the people were rejecting and escaping from communism.
Laconic statements from the White House and the Pentagon confirmed what had long been suspected - the US is planning a long-term military presence in Iraq. This is a geopolitical development of the first importance.
President Bush , deeply unpopular here and met by boisterous protests, sought to impress Pope Benedict XVI and the Italian public on Saturday with his humanitarian record and downplayed differences with the Vatican over Iraq .
In 1967, Israel deliberately attacked a US naval vessel, bombed it, napalmed it, torpedoed it, and even strafed life rafts full of sailors. The US whitewashed it. Here is the story.
