Team America is a throwback to the kind of movie that casts the establishment as the good guy and everyone who goes against them as either evil or woefully misinformed. While, to many, such a theme may seem ironic, what makes this movie so pertinent and vital is the fact that this unthinking good-vs.-evil mentality may be more widespread than we’d like to believe. On the other hand, this movie also tells...
While U.S. officials agonize over the "axis of evil" acquiring nuclear arms, news that the former "evil empire" may have a new nuke is barely raising an eyebrow. In what has become a yearly tradition, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced last week that his scientists are developing nuclear-missile systems "of a type that no other nuclear state has."

Here was a petite Irishwoman in her 50s with an English accent speaking fluent Arabic in one of the world's most dangerous pariah states. The U.N. sanctions that had wedged the Iraqis between an evil regime and an uncaring world had been in place for eight years. She fixed her strong, brown eyes on me and gave me the facts: Iraqi children were dying by the thousands; Iraq was ceasing to exist as a unified nation-state; its people were experiencing an African-scale catastrophe...
