...publicly the Soviet threat, Churchill became the architect of the century's great triumph over it. The twin victories over two great evils are this century's dominating achievements. Great movements still in progress--civil rights, gender equality, democratization, market capitalism--would be impossible, or at least retarded, in fascist or Marxist societies. It is beyond imagination what life would be like today had Churchill not lived, acted, written and spoken as he did. RICHARD M. LANGWORTH PRESIDENT Churchill Center Washington...

Some people, looking at the first of these themes, sorrowfully insist that the choice has to be Hitler, Fuhrer of the fascist genocides and refugee floods that plagued the century. He wrought the Holocaust that redefined evil and the war that reordered the world...

Roosevelt, scarcely an exemplar of humility, nonetheless saved the possibility of governmental humility from the forces of utopian and dystopian arrogance.

Identity politics, policed by nearly fascist standards of correctness, combines with a certain chic and with residual but tenured Marxism (which flourishes in some American universities the way ex-Nazis once prospered in Paraguay) to corrupt--to prevent--the exchange of ideas...

Unlike many other hard-rock bands, Rage, as guitarist Tom Morello puts it, has "social and political" concerns. Indeed, in an interview, De la Rocha sounds off on a wide range of topics. He ridicules New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani: "There's nothing more dangerous than a fascist with aspiration for higher office." He's also critical of Sean ("Puffy") Combs: "If Reagan were a rapper, he'd be in Puff Daddy's crew. It's the same set of politics. Get yours. F___ everyone else. Just get paid. Don't think about community...
