Award-winning Investigative Journalist Robert Parry (1949-2018)

Award-winning investigative journalist and founder/editor of ConsortiumNews.com, Robert Parry has passed away. His ground-breaking work uncovering Reagan-era dirty wars in Central America and many other illegal and immoral policies conducted by successive administrations and U.S. intelligence agencies, stands as an inspiration to all in journalists working in the public interest.

Robert had been a regular guest on our Between The Lines and Counterpoint radio shows -- and many other progressive outlets across the U.S. over four decades.

His penetrating analysis of U.S. foreign policy and international conflicts will be sorely missed, and not easily replaced. His son Nat Parry writes a tribute to his father: Robert Parry’s Legacy and the Future of Consortiumnews.

Ten Years After 9/11: Assessing America's Course in the 'War on Terror'

Listen to the Between The Lines Radio Newsmagazine programs covering the 9/11 attacks produced on Sept. 11th and Sept. 18th, 2001:

The guests interviewed in Between The Lines' coverage of Sept. 11, 2001 accurately forecast the challenges ahead for the United States and expressed their well-placed concern that President Bush would respond to the terrorist attack by leading our nation into a decade of war and loss of civil liberties.

islamophobia

Not long after the Sept. 11 attacks on New York City, Washington, D.C. and the crash of a hijacked airliner in Pennsylvania, President Bush reminded the nation, “The war against terrorism is not a war against Muslims, nor is it a war against Arabs. It's a war against evil people who conduct crimes against innocent people." In recent years, however, Bush’s advocacy of tolerance and his message separating the violent acts of the few from the peaceful majority of the Islamic religion has seen substantial erosion.  Story continues
