The Re-Jihading of Gitmo Alumni
As many as 36 ex-Guantanamo prisoners have participated in terrorist attacks against the US and our allies. Jihadi recidivism is an unfortunate consequence of how war is conducted in our "enlightened" 21st century.
A Modest Proposal — For the Draft
Requiring national service may sound harsh, but done right, it could give everyone a little of what they want.
Frontline’s ‘Bush’s War’: Not About Bush or His War
Frontline’s big fifth-anniversary of Iraq show, which begins airing tonight, is a “narrowly focused, warmed-over Donald Rumsfeld-Dick Cheney hatefest.”
Speech is Free - But Only If Politically Correct
The truth hurts, and that's why it must be avoided at all costs, especially in Democratic presidential politics, writes Jules Crittenden.
McCain Won, Your Guy Lost - Now Do What’s Best for America
Elections have consequences, writes Jules Crittenden. Sitting out Election '08 because you don't like McCain could mean a defeat in Iraq and a nuclear-armed Iran in four years' time. Will that make you feel better?
Bush Delivers His Final State of the Union Address
Pundits proclaimed that President Bush would have to tacitly acknowledge his lame-duck status through a toned-down address, writes Jules Crittenden.

"The president gave a speech that glossed over every economic problem that has Americans queasy and uncertain about the future while offering precious little except platitudes and pabulum."

The New Bi-Partisanship: President Bush’s Legacy?
Could George W. Bush's greatest contribution as president be a nation united in its own self-interest? Jules Crittenden thinks that even the Bush-bashers of the world are slowly being brought into the fold.
Iraq: Mission (Almost) Accomplished?
Has the President's vision of Iraq been realized? The moment is near, writes Jules Crittenden, who contends that the country is "on its way to becoming everything Bush promised four years ago."
Annapolis: Peace In Someone Else’s Time
On the face of it, the Annapolis peace parley that starts today looks like a colossal waste of time, says Jules Crittenden. Still, this gathering will make clear who in the Middle East seeks peace and who does not - and that's worth something.
