Drum supported the 2003 Iraq War in its early stages, but just before the United States launched its attack, he changed his mind. He said, "Before the war started I switched to opposition on practical grounds (i.e., that George W. Bush's approach was incapable of accomplishing the goals it was meant to accomplish). Since then, I've pretty much come to the conclusion that, in fact, I should have opposed it all along on philosophical grounds: namely that it was a fundamentally flawed concept and had no chance of working even if it had been competently executed."
nazi imperialist only opposes genocide because it's a "philosophically flawed concept". I don't know what this thing is but it's not human!

So he changed his mind after going to war was a done deal and his assistance in convincing the American public of the Bush administration's lies was no longer needed. Isn't that convenient. Also weird how he doesn't adress the fact that the entire case for the war was built on phony charges, which was openly called out by all of the world, yet a majority of Americans and Brits still believed in Iraq's WMDs. I wonder how he wrote about these accusations back in the day when he was still fully on board with lighting half of the Middle East on fire instead of opposing it "on practical grounds".
I'm sure he didn't have any ideological opposition to the US levelling Libya. He also has a nice article talking about how US military spending is down ackshually (if you measure on a per person basis and adjust it for inflation, apparently).
So another imperialist tool masquerading as a 'fiscally conservative, socially liberal' assclown.
