Rachel Marsden: Could we have the wars without the manipulation?
Testifying before a Senate committee a few months ago, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lamented that America was "in an information war, and we are losing that war." This week, she blew a fuse at the "Friends of Syria" meeting in Paris, saying that...

Bartlett takes a stand against America's illegal war in Libya
Congratulations to Maryland conservative Republican Rep. Roscoe G. Bartlett for joining like-minded members of Congress of both parties in suing President Obama for illegally involving our country in yet a third war in Libya ("Bartlett, others sue over...Tags: Afghanistan, Roscoe G Bartlett, Litigation, Trials, Libya

Congress accepts own irrelevancy on Libya
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.
Thankfully, Congress yesterday ended its collective denial and admitted it is completely irrelevant.
Senate leaders on Tuesday abandoned plans to force a vote on authorizing the U.S. war in...Tags: NATO, White House, Elections, Libya, Bob Corker

Baltimorean taking up the Libyan rebel cause
As described by those who know him, Matthew VanDyke comes off as footloose and maybe a little feckless. He has worked sporadically, sometimes getting freelance writing or teaching gigs but more often traveling to the Middle East for months at a time...Tags: NATO, Human Rights, Prisons, Journalism, Relief and Aid Organizations

Rep. Bartlett right on U.S. intervention in Libya
Rep. Roscoe Bartlett and I would agree on very few political issues. But he is correct to sue over the war in Libya ("Bartlett, others sue over Libya," June 16). While I have great empathy for the people of Libya who have lived for decades under a...Tags: Yemen, Government, Syria, George W. Bush, Bahrain

Baltimore County school superintendent job draws about 40 candidates

The U.S. war in Libya is illegal
I fail to understand how the Obama administration can legitimately continue the war in Libya. Even though Predator drones are the new weapons of choice and some military gurus feel they are not actual combatants, it's wrong to keep this conflict going...Tags: NATO, Muammar Gaddafi, 2011 NFL Lockout, Elections, Libya

The battle of Tripoli
Col. Moammar Gadhafi's 42-year misrule of the oil-rich African nation of Libya appears finally to be nearing an end. The rebels' surprisingly swift advance into the capital, Tripoli, over the weekend brought large parts of the government's last...Tags: NATO, Democratic Party, Tripoli (Libya), Government, National Government

Obama administration should not recognize Libyan rebels
I fail to understand how the Obama administration can legitimately recognize a Libyan rebel group as the official government of that nation ("US recognizes Libya's rebels" July 16). Aren't there some important constitutional and Congressional procedures...Tags: Hillary Clinton, Wars and Interventions, U.S. Department of State, Elections, Libya

When is a war not a war? When Americans can't get hurt, Obama says
The Obama administration has come up with a remarkable justification for going to war against Libya without the congressional approval required by the Constitution and the War Powers Act of 1973.
American planes are taking off, they are entering Libyan...Tags: Transportation Accidents, Government, George W. Bush, Yale University, Abusive Behavior

Gadhafi's death: A validation of Obama's policy
The death of Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi at the hands of the rebels who deposed him was the best possible outcome of the months-long civil war in that North African country. Had he remained at large, he could have been a symbol of resistance to the...Tags: International Law, NATO, Terrorism, Government, International Court or Tribunal

Two centuries later, group seeks to bring home sailors killed off the shores of Tripoli
For the American sailors off Tripoli — five of them from Maryland — it was a suicide mission: Sail the small ship heavy with explosives in among the enemy fleet, set the blast to go off in 15 minutes, jump into lifeboats and get as far away as...Tags: NATO, Annapolis, American Legion, Thomas Jefferson, Explosions
