The Anti-war Right

We've written periodically about the strange new group of formers -- former conservatives, former leftists -- who since 9/11 have adopted the vocabulary and, one must assume, world view of the anti-war, anti-American left. Their house organs are The American Conservative and Lewrockwell.com.

Traditionalist conservative Lawrence Auster, in the first of a projected two-part series on the politics of anger, explores the anti-war right today at FrontPage. Auster has never been called a neocon, and never will -- a fact that makes his case all the more compelling.

Update: Here's a fresh sample of what Lawrence Auster is writing about: Jude Wanniski heralding anti-American Iraqi blogger Riverbend. You'll recognize her from posts at this site and many others, as Juan Cole praised her as part of his shameful effort to discredit the Fadhil brothers of Iraq the Model.
