What happened at Camp Falcon?

On October 10th, Camp Falcon, a US Army base outside of Baghdad, was attacked by Iraqis. A major fire broke out and munitions started going off - including a few fairly spectacular explosions. Video of the event was shown on CNN and has circulated around the internet. Here is one of the better ones. Since then, we have been getting more and more letters at Antiwar.com, asking about widespread rumors that the explosions seen in the video were American nuclear munitions detonating due to the...

Former US Government Contractor Saddam Hussein Sentenced to Death by the Hangman’s Rope by US Government-Backed Kangaroo Court for Crimes Committed While Backed by US Government

MSNBC tells the tale. Good thing for Bush, they fired the last judge for being sure to let him off. Saddam Hussein makes a deal for more chemical weapons with special envoy Donald Rumsfeld in 1983 - a year after the massacre he was just convicted and sentenced to death for. Where did Iraq get its weapons of mass destruction anyway? (You know, back before 1991, when he they still had some.)

Why Reasonable People Hate Democrats

They are pathetic cowards. Quoth Tom Knapp: "Every time I turn around, someone's opining that John Kerry "owes everyone who's ever served in the military an apology." I don't presume to speak for "everyone who's ever served in the military," but I can speak for myself, so I will. As a veteran of the 1991 war (Marine Corps -- infantry), I don't desire an apology from Senator Kerry. I didn't find what he said offensive. The line as it was allegedly intended to be delivered would have been...

Ruby Ridge Accomplice Running for Mass. Governor – Slammed by Bovard

From the Bovard blog: Kimberly Atkins, a reporter for the Boston Herald, called me yesterday regarding Deval Patrick, the Democratic candidate for governor in Massachusetts. Patrick played a notorious role in the Ruby Ridge scandal, overruling a Justice Department panel regarding FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi. Horiuchi was the guy who gunned down Vicki Weaver as she held her baby in the cabin door on an Idaho mountaintop in 1992. Patrick decreed that applying the death sentence was not

In-depth Dr. Gordon Prather Interview

By George Kenny at Electric Politics. It's an hour and 45 minutes. They discuss, DU munitions, the Nunn-Lugar regime, so-called 'suitcase nukes,' Russia's old nukes, Korea's nuke test and why it's important that it was plutonium not uranium, the IAEA, NPT and the axis of evil, what Iran would have to do to make a nuke... Thanks Steve.

Site Grafix Updated

I have updated the site's graphics from the old GIF format to the newer, more advanced PNG-24. This new format supports casting transparent layers on top of each other seamlessly. So drop shadows and things like that merge with other images. However, Internet Explorer 6 does not support PNG-24, so if you are still using it, the site won't look right. Here are some instructions for what to do if you're in that situation. Microsoft released Internet Explorer 7 two weeks ago, and the upgrade is...

Buckley Retires Again

Lew Rockwell: "Bill Buckley, a man who has dedicated his life to suppressing politically incorrect ideas in service of the warfare state, claims (for what, the 30th time?) that he will now shut up. No more smearing of those who don't take the CIA line? For almost 60 years, that has been his cause. And certainly his rooting of the conservative movement in the mass murder of foreigners has been successful, so maybe he really can go away, decorated with one of those secret CIA medals dipped in...
