What Have Neocons Done?

By Gary Anderson

Neocons reached the height of power in the Bush administration as many of the PNAC members were picked to be in the administration. Some of these members included Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove, Wolfowitz, architect of the Iraq war, Abrams, Perle, and many others.

Wolfowitz sat at the feet of the philosopher of neoconservatism, Leo Strauss, while at the University of Chicago. Leo Strauss believed that you honor the form of democracy, but that you lie to the masses. You are the elite and you lie to the masses to get your ideas and programs through. It is funny that many religious people were duped into supporting these liar neocons!

Paul Wolfowitz carried out the example of this lie to the masses. He invented WMD/Iraq connection and the mushroom cloud (Rice scared us with that remember?) He also made up the Iraq/Al Qaeda connection. But in Europe he was saying that Iraq was swimming on a sea of oil. Indeed the major motivation for invading Iraq was to secure and in effect steal oil. The existing petroleum contracts with other countries and Iraq were voided. The neocons wanted the oil companies to own the Iraq oil fields outright but were overruled by the oil companies. But in my view, stealing is stealing and this theft violates common morality and international law.
