    • The crazed face of neoconservatism

      Posted by Billbar from Glenn Greenwald

      The contrived chest-beating and transparent desire to feel like a feared warrior, with none of the risk, is manifest, and it is what has shaped our foreign policy for the last five years and, by all appearances, continues to do so.

    • Middle East Violence: Neocons' Fantasy

      Posted by Billbar from Alternet

      The champions of American global empire are using the latest upsurge of violence in the Middle East to give new life to their discredited plan to extend the war in Iraq to Syria and Iran. The neo-con Weekly Standard has taken the lead in its July 24th cover issue, proclaiming that the current violence is "Iran's Proxy War" against the West.

    • Is Israel's war also "our war"?

      Posted by Billbar from Glenn Greenwald

      In the past, neoconservatives have danced delicately around the notion that Israel's conflicts should be viewed by the U.S. as its own conflicts. But, to his credit, Bill Kristol [one of the most influential neonconservative pundits in the country] yesterday came right out and candidly put his views on the table. In the Weekly Standard, Kristol's column -- entitled "This is Our War" (by "Our" he means the U.S.) -- argues explicitly what many have contended for some time is an unstated belief of neoconservatives: that the U.S. should view the threats to Israel as threats to the U.S., because the enemy is the same, and should join Israel in the destruction of these enemies.

    • But I Said I Was Sorry

      Posted by Billbar from Digby's Blog

      Francis Fukuyama writes a WATB essay in today's LA Times about how mean everybody is being to him now that he's changed his mind about Iraq. The example he cites has the Republican being called a "bad" Republican if he refuses to deny reality. The Democrat is called "bad" for disagreeing with the long standing policy positions of the Party.

    Breaking: Mel Gibson's Liberalism exposed!

    I can't believe someone didn't like this story. It just goes to show the duplicitous nature of the neocons. I thought it was funny.
