Washington’s Secret Wars

By Bill Van Auken, December 13, 2017

The latest letter from the Trump administration, however, represents another qualitative step in this protracted degeneration of American democracy and the elimination of the last pretenses of civilian control over the military. Failing to even keep Congress “informed” about US combat deployments, the document, for the first time, omitted any information about the number of troops participating in Washington’s multiple wars and military interventions.

By Stephen Lendman, December 12, 2017

The struggle for Syria’s soul remains to be entirely completed successfully, a long way to go to achieve it because Washington, Israel and their rogue allies want war and regime change, not peace and stability.

It’s Not Simply Jerusalem, It’s All of Palestine

By Rima Najjar, December 12, 2017
