PNAC No More?
Edited on Wed May-21-08 06:22 AM by laststeamtrain
PNAC No More?

The website of the Bill Kristol’s Project for the New American Century (www.newamericancentury.org) has vanished. If you go to the site, you are diverted to another one that says, “This Account Has Been Suspended. Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.” A metaphor, perhaps, for the bankruptcy of the ideas that inspired the project and the strategic disaster that they produced for U.S. interests in Iraq, the greater Middle East, and the wider world?

You can still find most of PNAC’s documents — including its letters and their signatories — through www.archive.org, but it seems that the original site is gone for lack of payment. While the site became effectively dormant in 2005, its sudden disappearance is somewhat alarming. What does it say about the new American Century itself, particularly in light of the slew of recent books on the decline of American power and the end of unipolarity? A coincidence or an augury?...http://www.ips.org/blog/jimlobe/?p=145

Hey, Kristol, pay your damn bill. Don't be a thief. Everybody knows you ain't no Jean Valjean.

2. Those who belong to the "party of financial responsibility" seem incapable of
paying their bills on time.

10. Could it have been the Henry Jackson Society?
I think that group was started as the PNAC wound down and it's associated with neocons.

14. Sort of. The HJS is British, but a lot of PNAC members were 'international patrons'
http://www.henryjacksonsociety.org/content.asp?pageid=37

But it's mainly a bunch of British academics (starting at Peterhouse, Cambridge - a very conservative college in the university) trying to keep up Blair's line of 'liberal interventionism' by writing a series of editorials and papers. They seemed to use the American names to get themselves some publicity at the start, but they don't seem to have been involved, lately.

15. The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies is where you'll find neocons hiding now
http://www.defenddemocracy.org/

They're lambasting Obama for taking offense to Bush**'s insult in Israel, currently. Just don't call them liars or traitors, they might cry. (Hm, that seems to be a changing front page story, now it's about Hezbollah.)

Anyway, check the Biographies page for the old PNAC crew. Kirkpatrick, Kemp, Woolsey, Lieberman, Miller, Gaffney, Krauthammer, Kristol....

22. They rebrand themselves but sell the same traitorous crap
The ONLY way to deal with the neocons is to prosecute and jail them for their crimes. Else they'll just keep manipulating the ship of state from behind a new curtain.

on the loose and have yet to be held accountable.

Edited on Wed May-21-08 11:50 AM by calimary
rise again when they think enough of us aren't paying attention anymore. I suspect that's what's up here. They AREN'T going away. They're not giving up and packing it in this soon. Especially when they got this close. Maybe they've just decided to go underground for awhile and regroup, or redeploy. :scared: Perhaps it's because they've become genuinely concerned that another republi-CON will NOT be able to keep the Oval Office for them, and that they're going to have to make some additional or perhaps reconfigured plans. :scared: God only knows what. :scared:

WHATEVER it is that they're up to, you can take it to the bank that they're STILL up to something, and whatever it is, it's no good.

These guys are slippery snakes. They HAVE to be watched. CONSTANTLY. We drop our vigilance at our peril. We HAVE TO keep track of these people.
