Larison responds to an Yglesias post:
There is nothing particularly ”far left” about repudiating and deploring wars of aggression, which seem to me to be the kind of war that Greenwald is rejecting … Greenwald is saying that wanton aggression is not the norm, and wars of self-defense and national security are. …He says simply that the default condition for the use of force for most states is self-defense, which seems pretty clearly true.
