The Bombing of Syria, on general principles
I don’t have a lot to say about the most recent American war crime. It does go to show, however, how little it mattered in the 2016 election (you recall, I hope, how in that election, as in every single … Continue reading
The Emptiness of the ‘Trump Is Not a Fascist’ Boast
