By Justin Raimondo Kerry & Co are amateurs: the neocons were much better at making stuff up The American people are “war-weary,” we are told, and that’s the only reason they’re overwhelmingly opposed to bombing Syria: this bit of conventional wisdom is invoked by warmongers and peaceniks alike, […]

The essence of what American Revolutionary Vanguard-Attack the System is all about: ““But try as much as you like, you can’t ignore the big one—Leviathan—the central state. Eventually it must be tackled head on and this can only be done by a nation-wide mass movement.This does not mean […]

Let the division continue. By Robert Reich Why is the nation more bitterly divided today than it’s been in 80 years?
