Jesse Walker, managing editor of Reason magazine, discusses his experience at the recent Left-Right anti-empire/antiwar conference in DC, the large contingent of writers featured at Antiwar.com in attendance, finding an alternative to mundane and ineffective peace marches and the stumbling blocks that prevent broad coalitions from uniting around a common issue.
The New American Militarism
Man pleads guilty to telling people he was a Marine at his high school reunion - he has "stolen" the "valor" of our Homeland's true heroes. "$250 fine and a year’s probation.
