Message: Entry: Mr. bin Laden, Meet Mr. Kennan--A New Containment Policy Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/mr_bin_laden_meet_mr_kennan_a_new_containment_policy#19439 Post contents: As usual, Sid Cundiff, in his haste to enlighten us all with his thoughts, has not bothered to read the piece. Otherwise, he--not being an idiot--would realize that such remarks as the following are simply howlers in the context of this piece: 4. Paleocons are essentially becoming Neocons 1) in having a favorite little country whose irredentist ambitions are disguised as a religious conflict, 2) in advocating a Christian jihad against Islam a la Rev. Hagee, 3) in advocating a Wilsonian campaign against “Islamofascism” (Osama), 4) in Lincoln idolatry and the celebration of centralized states and empires ruling minorities by force, 5) in not having a clue in how to fight 4th Generation War (which is what the conflict with Osama and the conflict in the Balkans is), and 6) not having a child in the respective Serbian Army and the IDF, and sending him instead to Ivy League schools, and expecting someone else’s child to bleed and die. The whole point of the piece, Mr. Cundiff, is to set out a policy that would allow us to avoid the very things you claim I'm supporting. So, either you didn't bother reading the article; you're a liar, who is banking on others not reading the article; or you're simply incapable of understanding logic. Which is it? Sent at: 2008 09 07
