On September 11, the United States Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit ruled in favor of Antiwar.com and against the FBI in the landmark case of Garris v. FBI (known as Raimondo and Garris v. FBI until Justin's death), and the court ordered the FBI to destroy records...
My Encounter With Robert Mugabe
The people of Zimbabwe reacted to the death of ex-dictator Robert Mugabe with either indifference or a bitter "good riddance". However, in the neocon-ridden precincts of the US foreign policy establishment, the reaction was different – there his passing was...
Bibi Netanyahu, Ingrate
As Israel's Netanyahu government continues its customary pre-election bombardment of "Iranian threats" (including at least one in Iraq that, by angering the Iraqi government, may put US troops in danger), fans of Bibi in the "nationalist" Trump administration may want...
