The fundamental flaw in the world view of neo-conservativism is that it is ideological and non-empirical. Their case for pre-emptive war in Iraq and for the Administration’s “democracy movement” deliberately ignored regional realities. Attempting a slight of hand transfer of what they perceived as former President Ronald Reagan’s victory over the “Evil Empire”, they believed and preached that forceful action designed to tear down the status quo in the Middle East would, by itself, usher in a new and more positive era.

Part of the problem is that these idiots really believe Reagan brought down the Soviets. It helped lead them to think that force does the trick. Until I started posting here, I had never heard that Reagan was responsible for the demise of the Soviet Union. What ridiculous claptrap these people feed themselves.
