The Project For the New American Century

[questionnaire]

Project for the New American Century is a neo-conservative think-tank that promotes an ideology of total U.S. world domination through the use of force. The group embraces and disseminates an ideology of faith in force, U.S. supremacy, and rejection of the rule of law in international affairs.



The group's core ideas are expressed in a September 2000 report produced for Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Jeb Bush, and Lewis Libby entitled Rebuilding America's Defenses: Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century. The Sunday Herald referred to the report as a "blueprint for U.S. world domination."

"Our aim is to remind Americans of these lessons and to draw their consequences for today. Here are four consequences:



• we need to increase defense spending significantly if we are to carry out our global responsibilities today and modernize our armed forces for the future;



• we need to strengthen our ties to democratic allies and to challenge regimes hostile to our interests and values;



• we need to promote the cause of political and economic freedom abroad;



• we need to accept responsibility for America's unique role in preserving and extending an international order friendly to our security, our prosperity, and our principles. "

Saying that they passed a report to Cheney makes them sound as if they are part of the government. Heck, I could pass something to Cheney, too. Doesn't mean he, or anybody else, is going to listen.

There are even more government members of the NRA...this does not make the NRA part of the government.

Of course not. It merely makes it one of the few heavyweight lobby organizations.

Wake up, DT, willya?



Do you honestly think that imbecile Bush II is capable of running things?



These lobbyists are the real power in US politics. In Wilson's era this sort of stuff was spouted openly and publicly, now its all done behind the scenes.



You just won't allow yourself to believe it, DT.
