<\/a><\/i>I thought, as I struggled to catch my breath. I lay in bed trying to find a position where I wouldn’t cough incessantly, I thinking to myself: what if the fundraiser goes badly? What if … ? <\/p>\nAnd then, mercifully, sleep overtook me. I feel better this morning, and so here I am, at the same old stand, making the case for Antiwar.com.<\/p>\n
We’ve been manning the barricades for the Peace Party online for over twenty years, fact-checking the War Party so you don’t have to, and holding up the propaganda that comes out of the "mainstream" media to the most rigorous scrutiny. <\/p>\n
I don’t have to make the case for donating because it’s so glaringly obvious that to do so insults my readers’ intelligence.<\/p>\n
No one else does the job we do. Nowhere else can you find the comprehensive coverage and fine-tuned fact-filled analysis of what’s happening in the world of foreign policy. And if you think that world has no effect on your life, think again – and remember the aftermath of 9\/11, and the decades of war that followed.<\/p>\n
Could it have all been avoided? Could things have turned out differently? Is there an alternative to our foreign policy of global intervention?<\/p>\n
We ask – and answer – these questions every single day. But we can’t continue to do it without your financial support.<\/p>\n
