David Frum complains about CAIR's attempted suppression of his free speech. Maybe Frum would like to team up with Juan Cole to protest such tactics. Drop him a line and let's see: dfrum@aei.org Frum also writes the following:Speaking of free societies: The faking of...
Michael Ledeen Libel of the Day
Regarding my post on Michael Ledeen, James Knechtmann of General Staff Library writes:This story about Tandey and Hitler is contrived propaganda nonsense from World War II. The source is an article in the Coventry Sunday Graphic from December 1940 (see...

Reinforcements on the Way
Antiwar.com blog is glad to welcome the occasional musings of Franklin Harris, wretched scribbler. Franklin is a fellow Alabama native who, despite his unfortunate status as an Auburn Tiger (I kid, I kid), will doubtless keep things percolating around here.
