Norman Podhoretz.
Norman Podhoretz believes that America needs to go to war soon with Iran. As far as he knows, Rudy Giuliani thinks the same thing.

“I was asked to come in and give him a briefing on the war, World War IV,” said Mr. Podhoretz, a founding father of neoconservatism and leading foreign policy adviser to Mr. Giuliani. “As far as I can tell there is very little difference in how he sees the war and how I see it.”

During a long interview this week in his bookcase-lined East 81st Street home, Mr. Podhoretz, 77, explained the very straightforward proposition he has been proposing to Mr. Giuliani from the start of the campaign: “The choice before us is either bomb those nuclear facilities or let them get the bomb.”

In the apartment, a Presidential Medal of Freedom awarded by President Bush was displayed next to records of Bach and Beethoven, tin African sculptures and Japanese furniture. A picture of his son, John Podhoretz, the new editor of Commentary, which he himself edited for decades, was stuck to the refrigerator. Two of his grown Israeli grandchildren, one in a tank top, the other in an Atari T-shirt, watched television in John’s old room.

5. there are worse neo-cons; look up stuff by Leo Strauss
of the Chicago school, where these neo-cons all get their inspiration. For a leftist political scientist, the University of Chicago is the center of the weird neo-con cult, and Strauss was at the pinnacle of it all. Neo-conservatism is every bit as bizarre, when you read deeply into it, as the cult of Ayn Rand is, or the Heaven's Gate people. The founders of this ideology make the current crop of William "the Bloody" Kristol, Wolfowitz, and Pearle look relatively sane.
