Neocon anti-warriors


The piece has a subtitle, too.

Syria and Obama: Wrong time, wrong place, wrong plan, wrong man.

And that about sums up the propaganda point she here is making.

GW vs. Saddam in the neocon conquest of Iraq a decade ago was right place, blah, blah.

That, of course, was the war Obama had opposed, later explaining that he did not oppose all wars but only stupid wars.

But taken all in the lump, our entire classe politique stretching across both parties and major factions, seems entirely devoted to reducing the historic core of the Muslim world to chaos.

Given that was al-Qaeda’s plan from the beginning, may we not question the wisdom of all this?

Even apart from the fundamental points that nobody is paying us to be the globocop, it’s contrary to our interests in numerous ways, and anyway we just don’t want the job?
