Fearing Sanders as "Closet Realist" To Washington's neocons like David Ignatius, Sen. Sanders should be disqualified as a presidential candidate for being a "closet realist." Sanders seems not to accept their forced "regime change" in Syria, nor their plans for more "nation building" like the neocon handiwork in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya, writes Robert Parry.

Hillary Clinton's Hypocrisy on Dissent Hillary Clinton says she's a great defender of American veterans, but when Army vet (and ex-CIA analyst) Ray McGovern was assaulted for silently protesting one of her speeches, she did nothing -- and newly released emails show she rebuffed an adviser's proposal to apologize, reports Robert Parry.

Risking Nuclear War for Al Qaeda? The risk that the multi-sided Syrian war could spark World War III continues as Turkey, Saudi Arabia and U.S. neocons seek an invasion that could kill Russian troops -- and possibly escalate the Syrian crisis into a nuclear showdown, amazingly to protect Al Qaeda terrorists, reports Robert Parry.

Hillary Clinton's Very Bad Night The magnitude of Hillary Clinton's New Hampshire drubbing has establishment Democrats wringing their hands as it dawns on them that no candidate in modern U.S. political history has bounced back from a 22-point loss in that first-in-the-nation primary to win the White House, reports Robert Parry.

Giving Peace Very Little Chance What the next U.S. president can do to bring endless warfare to an end is one of the most important issues of Campaign 2016, but it is getting only a cursory treatment in debates as politicians seem to fear neocon wrath if they seek peace, writes Robert Parry.

A Crazy Establishment Demands "Sanity" As support grows for anti-Establishment candidates Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, a frantic Establishment is demanding that Americans "stay sane" and vote for one of its approved candidates. But is it sane to follow advice that has led to endless wars and a disappearing middle class, asks Robert Parry.

Hillary Clinton Seeks Neocon Shelter Stunned by falling poll numbers, Hillary Clinton is hoping that Democrats will rally to her neocon-oriented foreign policy and break with Bernie Sanders as insufficiently devoted to Israel. But will that hawkish strategy work this time, asks Robert Parry.

MH-17's Unnecessary Mystery Nearly 18 months after Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 crashed in eastern Ukraine, one of the troubling mysteries is why the U.S. government -- after rushing to blame Russia and ethnic Russian rebels -- then went silent, effectively obstructing the investigation into 298 deaths, writes Robert Parry.

What Hillary Knew about Libya In Official Washington's propaganda world, the U.S. government and its "allies" are always standing for what's right and good and the "enemies" are the epitome of evil doing the vilest things. But some emails to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton depicted a far different reality, writes Robert Parry.

Saudi Game-Changing Head-Chopping Saudi Arabia likes to distinguish itself from the head-choppers of the Islamic State but the recent mass executions, including decapitating a top Shiite dissident, reveals the Saudi royals to be just better-dressed jihadists, while creating an opening for a U.S. realignment in the Mideast, says Robert Parry.

One County's Global Warming Failure Even communities where many citizens agree that global warming is a threat to humankind -- and have the money to take action -- find that the politics of doing something can be complicated and seemingly insurmountable, like the case of Arlington, Virginia, reports Robert Parry.

The Misinformation Mess As Americans approach Election Year 2016, the crisis of misinformation is growing more and more dangerous. On issues from foreign policy to the economy, almost none of the candidates in the race appears to be addressing the real world, writes Robert Parry.

Trump Schools ABC-TV Host on Reality The spectacle of clueless U.S. media personalities, like George Stephanopoulos, chastising Donald Trump for getting facts wrong would be funny if it weren't indicative of a political-media system failing the American people and what's left of the democratic Republic, writes Robert Parry.

A Blind Eye Toward Turkey's Crimes The alleged ties between Turkish President Erdogan and Islamist terrorists in Syria is an embarrassment for the Obama administration and the U.S. news media, which would prefer to look the other way rather than face up to the danger created by an out-of-control NATO "ally," writes Robert Parry.

Blocking Democracy as Syria's Solution The long-cherished neocon dream of "regime change" in Syria is blocking a possible route out of the crisis -- a ceasefire followed by elections in which President Assad could compete. The problem is there's no guarantee that Assad would lose and thus the dream might go unfulfilled, writes Robert Parry.
