This year the Israelis and various neocrazy media sycophants have increasingly been comparing Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Adolf Hitler. That’s a ridiculous comparison, of course. Iran’s president is almost powerless and occupies in the Iranian...

Two-and-a-half years ago, I warned Antiwar.com readers that the fix was in at the 9/11 Commission, that the Bush administration had a powerful friend on the inside who would whitewash its pre-9/11 failings. My worst fears have been confirmed by Bob Woodward. We now...
