Just more left wing spin from that bastion of socialist traitors, The Army War
College.

We do need to apply some objective standards of course. All of those who
claimed moveon.org was completely responsible for the contest entry comparing
the Bush administration to the Third Reich have no room---none---to claim that
the Army War College doesn't fully endorse this professor's opinion. Gotta love
it. :-)

Unlike moveon.org, the Army War College is an educational institution.
As you know, censorship is highly frowned on by educational
institutions. Please don't assign to the Army the values of every
author who has been published by the Army War College.

Professors are allowed to hold and publish opinions.

Here is a quote taken from the essay which didn't make it into the
Washington Post:

"The Bush Doctrine rightly focuses on the principle of regime change
as the most effective means of defeating threats posed by rogue and
terrorist-hosting weak states..."

This 'new' report (actually an essay) was published in the Spring,
2003, edition of "Parameters". This is the professional journal of the
Army War College. The objective of the publication is shown below:

************************************
Parameters is a refereed journal of ideas and issues, providing a
forum for mature thought on the art and science of land warfare, joint
and combined matters, national and international security affairs,
military strategy, military leadership and management, military
history, military ethics, and other topics of significant and current
interest to the US Army and the Department of Defense. It serves as a
vehicle for continuing the education and professional development of
USAWC graduates and other senior military officers, as well as members
of government and academia concerned with national security affairs.
************************************

Note that it is a vehicle for continuing education and professional
development. Thus it is hardly a place to censor material to ensure
only one side of a story is told.

That's a pretty naive thing to say. If the publisher of a journal disagrees
with a particular position, whether academic, scientific, or political, then
it won't publish the article.

I'm not defending or condeming the article in question -- I haven't read it.
I don't have a dog in this fight. But, what you said, John, is just not the
way the world works.

My wife has two papers under consideration for publication by two
separate professional journals in her field. Both articles and
everything related to them are being carefully vetted and, AFTER that,
they are submitted to the editorial boards for commentary and a vote on
whether they should be published. John's concept of the world is
slightly colored by his years in the military and his inexperience with
the real world.

And yet it happens all the time. Especially when a journal publishes
"both sides" of a story. There's no way the publisher can agree with
both disagreeing viewpoints.

Marty, are you implying that the Army War College agrees with
everything in the article?

Sorry, basskisser, I should have been more clear for you. I've implied
that the publisher should publish both sides of the story. The
publisher's agreement, or lack thereof, with the article is not
pertinent.
