  1. Who's to blame for our politics? Don't ask

    There is a classic "Doonesbury" cartoon, published soon after the Vietnam War ended, in which the antiwar activist Mark Slackmeyer is arguing with his pro-war father. They go back and forth, each blaming the other's politics for everything that's wrong in Southeast Asia, when they finally reach the Cambodian genocide.

  3. McManus: Inching toward Syria

    Military intervention in the Muslim world seems to bring the United States nothing but grief. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya: None looks much like a success story now.

  5. While Syria burns, Obama stands idly by

    WASHINGTON — Last year President Barack Obama ordered U.S. intervention in Libya under the grand new doctrine of "Responsibility to Protect." Moammar Gadhafi was threatening a massacre in Benghazi. To stand by and do nothing "would have been a betrayal of who we are," explained the president.

  7. Obama's flexibility doctrine revealed

    <strong>"On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this can be solved, but it's important for him (Putin) to give me space. &hellip; This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility."</strong>

  9. On Syria, Iraq's shadow is long

    WASHINGTON -- This week's 10th anniversary of the Iraq War passed quietly, and that's not a bad thing.
    WASHINGTON -- This week's 10th anniversary of the Iraq War passed quietly, and that's not a bad thing. Most Americans have no wish to celebrate the war, fought under false pretenses to a costly and ambiguous end. But in Washington this week there are...

  11. Sequester, held in contempt

    WASHINGTON -- I hate the sequester, beginning with its name. "Sequester" is a verb, not a noun. This ridiculous exercise is not just unwise and unproductive, but ungrammatical as well.

  13. Syria: Staying out or getting in?

    <span style="font-size: small;">Secretary of State John Kerry announced yesterday that the United States will provide $60 million in direct aid to the rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad. For those of us who oppose&nbsp;direct US&nbsp;intervention in the conflict, the good news is that the aid is all "non-lethal,"&nbsp;suggesting considerable caution on the part of the administration. The bad news may be that this is the first step on the road to putting American forces in harm's way. </span>

  15. McManus: A team of rivals on Syria

    Last August, then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and then-CIA Director David H. Petraeus proposed that the United States change its policy and send weapons and other aid to the rebels fighting the Syrian government. Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta and Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, signed on too, an unusual step for the normally cautious Pentagon.

  17. This will not end well

    WASHINGTON — In Syria, the Obama administration seems to be stumbling back to the future: An old-fashioned proxy war, complete with the usual shadowy CIA arms-running operation, the traditional plan to prop up ostensible "moderates" whose...

  19. Obama's plan to arm Syrian rebels falls short

    Here are five observations, most of them depressing, about the Syrian civil war, formulated in light of the announcement by the White House that President Bashar al-Assad's regime has, in fact, used chemical weapons and that, in response, the U.S. will supply small arms and ammunition to the Syrian rebels.

  21. Why John Kerry wants airstrikes against Syria

    Tuesday, shortly after I posted a column on Secretary of State John Kerry's push to have the White House approve U.S. strikes on Syrian airfields — and how Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey pushed back strongly against the idea — I...
