Reply #72: Antiwar.com is a Libertarian Publication

[al bupp]

They are published by the http://randolphbourne.org/">Randolph Bourne Institute, which has roots going back to 1st World War isolationism. The main editorial writer Justin Raimondo has worked (and, I think, published) w/ Pat Buchanan. It can be an interesting site, which aggregates a lot news pieces from around the world. A good place to go for a quick take on events in conflict hot-spots worldwide.

The over-arching editorial philosophy tends to a kind of radical libertarianism that can be a fascinating mixture of arch-conservatism along w/ a hip disdain for authority and government. They should get credit for opposing Bush administration policy in both Afghanistan and Iraq. It also has some opinion writers who sometimes heavy-handed diatribe. But then, who on the internet doesn't do that sometime?
