Remember the PNAC from the Bush Jr/Cheney years?

15. Great analysis of the dangers of PNAC and the neo-con ideology

I saved this article ages ago..It's entitled The Rise and Demise of the 'New American Century' (2006)

If anyone is interested in an extensive report on neocons, I found a link to that old report:

It's now on my re-read list. As I recall, it provided some great insights that currently escape me (wish my brain wasn't such a sieve)

From the intro:

The IRC is publishing this special report on the Project for the New American Century, along with an accompanying report on the Committee on the Present Danger, as part of an effort to stimulate more reflection on the dangers of the ideology and political projects of the neoconservatives and their allies.

IRC (International Relations Center) was founded in 1979 by Tom Barry. IRC morphed into other things around 2007 when Barry joined the Center for International Policy.

I don't know what Mr. Barry is up to these days, but he also wrote an excellent 2009 article on our destructive immigration policies and the exponential growth of immigration prisons: A Death in Texas: Where profits, poverty, and immigration converge.

Things were already intolerable then. I still have trouble fathoming the magnitude of the hell we are descending into.
