<No matter how much they want to establish democracy in the ME...>
At first, I thought the NeoCons were misguided idealists. I read the position papers of the American Enterprise Institute, and I thought, "I agree with the eventual goals, but the Means are all wrong, and can't possibly achieve those goals".
Now that they have a track record on which to judge them, I've come to the conclusion, that they never were idealists, and never were misguided. They never had any intention of delivering on any of their promises, for freedom/democracy/peace. It was a deliberate sham. I have come to that conclusion, because I cannot find the tiniest shred of evidence, that they have made any attempt to establish freedom. Quite the opposite; their actions, from Afghanistan to Iraq to America, has consistently been to end freedom where it exists, and replace tyranny with tyranny.
We are seeing the Israelization of America. We are seeing a program of colonization, fueled by homefront fear. The NeoCon philosophy is a continuation of 19th Century Manifest Destiny. The War on Terror, this is just the American version of Zionism, writ large. |
