New York Times Columnist Critiques the Dishonesty of Totalitarian Humanism
Here’s the money quote: “It would be a far, far better thing if Harvard and Brandeis and Mozilla would simply say, explicitly, that they are as ideologically progressive as Notre Dame is Catholic or B. Y.U. is Mormon or Chick-fil-A is evangelical, and that they intend to run […]

Mozilla’s Brendan Eich: Persecutor Or Persecuted?

Ron Cole: Visionary Militiaman from the 90s

Two Invasions – and One Truth: Crimea and Afghanistan-A comparative analysis
By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com No bombing, no casualties, no armed resistance, no “shock & awe” – Crimea isn’t so much an invasion as it is a hook-up. If Russia’s retaking of a region it has held since the days of Catherine the Great is an invasion – and […]

Libertarianism In One Country
By Justin Raimondo This week marks the fifteenth anniversary of the bombing of Serbia by President Bill Clinton – and the beginning of Antiwar.com as a full-time full-coverage news site. It’s a double anniversary fraught, for me, with irony. Back then the Big Bad Bogeyman wasn’t al-Qaeda, which […]
