Yes, You Can Be Antiwar and Anti-Assad Too (And You Should Be) One section of the left believes that telling the truth about the war crimes of the Syrian Arab Republic should be avoided because it gives aid and comfort to warmongers. The left should avoid this stance. There is no contradiction in being opposed to US intervention in Syria while pointing out the crimes of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.

That episode provides lessons for dealing with North Korea today. This article is adapted from a much longer article which appeared on CounterPunch on September 27: "When China Got the Bomb."

Can the Peace Movement Survive? The US peace movement will not succeed unless it grows. Peace activists must reach out to any groups that are antiwar even if they do not agree with us on all issues, such as abortion.
