Bush’s Proposed Terror Legacy: A Legal Basis for Perpetual War

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

By Andy Worthington | Just when you think that there can be no more outrageous proposals from the current lame duck government, and that it's down to a straight race between Barack Obama, a man with respect for the rule of law, and John McCain, who, I fear, may allow the malign spirits of Dick Cheney and David Addington to maintain a presence in the corridors of power, George W. ...

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

By Matthew Rothschild | Here’s the news flash from Wednesday’s New York Times: “Al Qaeda is more capable of attacking inside the United States than it was last year.” That’s not my conclusion.
