Through Cold and Snow, and Unarmed, People Try to Keep Their Mountain Out of War "The military exercise in Montenegro has ended and NATO soldiers have left the military barracks of Kolašin. However, we fear that this is just a preparation for a much more serious military training in May, when we expect a much more dangerous aggression and a real threat to Sinjajevina. . . . we are ready to stand in front of their plans and that they will only be able to shoot on Sinjajevina through dead bodies."

The Monroe Doctrine Shaped North America We're often taught that the Monroe Doctrine wasn't acted on until decades after its articulation, or that it wasn't acted on as a license for imperialism until it was altered or reinterpreted by later generations. This is not false, but it is overstated.

How Dare I Oppose War Together With Libertarians? I'm getting a lot more criticism for planning to speak at an antiwar rally at which libertarians will speak than I do for sitting around doing nothing. In fact, I get exactly no criticism ever from anyone for sitting around doing nothing, even though that's far more dangerous.

Winston Churchill Was a Monster Churchill was a proud, unrepentant, lifelong supporter of racism, colonialism, genocide, militarism, chemical weapons, nuclear weapons, and general cruelty, and he was shamelessly arrogant about all of it.

The Monroe Doctrine Is Thriving and Must Be Undone The U.S. does not any longer need presidents in Latin American nations to achieve its "interests" when it has coopted and armed and trained elites, has corporate trade agreements like CAFTA in place, has given U.S. corporations the legal power to create their own laws in their own territories within nations like Honduras, has massive debts owed to its institutions, provides desperately needed aid with its choice of strings...

The Monroe Doctrine Is 200 and Should Not Reach 201 The Monroe Doctrine was and is a justification for actions, some good, some indifferent, but the overwhelming bulk reprehensible. The Monroe Doctrine remains in place, both explicitly and dressed up in novel language. Additional doctrines have been built on its foundations. Here are the words of the Monroe Doctrine, as carefully selected from President James Monroe's State of the Union Address 200 years ago on December 2, 1823
