Antiwar.com is an English-language website containing news and opinion pieces related to wars throughout the world, from a libertarian, anti-interventionist perspective. The site was founded in December of 1995, as a response to the Bosnian war. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation, operating under the auspices of the Randolph Bourne Institute, based in Atherton, California.

Personnel include Justin Raimondo (founder and editorial director), Eric Garris (founder and webmaster), Matt Barganier (editor), Jeremy Sapienza (assistant webmaster and senior editor),and Alexia Gilmore (executive director). Columnists include Raimondo, Ivan Eland, Praful Bidwai, Ran HaCohen, Nebojsa Malic, Alan Bock, Charles V. Peña, Bevin Chu and Joseph Stromberg. The site carries a variety of opinions, regularly carrying authors ranging from the Old Right to the Progressive Left, from Paul Craig Roberts and Pat Buchanan to Alexander Cockburn, and many in between. The editorial position has been staunchly libertarian with a "big tent" message, arguing for libertarians, paleoconservatives, and the anti-war left to work together in opposition to war.

The site has consistently opposed all U.S. interventionism, from the bombing of Serbia to the present occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq.
