Obama’s Team of Reactionaries
8 December 2008
In recent weeks, numerous media accounts have referred to President-elect Barack Obama’s cabinet selections as a "team of rivals." The reference is to a book of the same name by the historian Doris Kearns Goodwin on Abraham Lincoln’s choices for key cabinet posts after his victory in the 1860 election, when he confronted the secession crisis and then the Civil War. The media comparisons between Lincoln’s and Obama’s cabinets are specious, (…)

Jackson, it was the summation where his lawyer played by Matthew McConaughey, I zeroed in on.

As long ago as October 19, 2000, the then United Nations Human Rights Commission (now Council) condemned Israel for inflicting “war crimes” and “crimes against humanity” upon the Palestinian people, most of whom are Muslims. The reader has a general idea of what a war crime is, (…)
