In a hyper-patriotic country, it can be difficult to tell the truth about the barbarism of one’s own leaders. But in 1971, John Kerry was among the Vietnam War veterans who did that, telling the Senate Foreign Relations Committee:
"[T]here is nothing in South Vietnam which could happen that realistically threatens the United States of America. And to attempt to justify the loss of one American life in Vietnam, Cambodia or Laos by linking such loss to the preservation of (…)

Ohio resident Bob Stewart says of President Bush: "He’s been a world-class polarizer. I don’t know if I can stomach four more years with him as president. He misled us into the war in Iraq and has mismanaged everything since."
A raging Democrat? No, Stewart is a Republican, one of an unknown number of such voters who plan to back John Kerry, out of despair over the war in Iraq and disappointment over budget deficits and social policies.
It remains to be seen whether (…)

Egypt on Monday denied remarks by retired U.S. General Tommy Franks that President Hosni Mubarak told him that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.
Such a claim is void of truth,’’ Egyptian presidential spokesman Magad Abdel Fattah told the official Middle East News Agency.
In an interview with the U.S. Parade magazine to promote his book,American Soldier,’’ to be released this week, Franks recalled that both Mubarak and Jordan’s King Abdullah told him two months before the (…)
