Message: Entry: There Are No Neocons in Foxholes Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/viet_nam_redux#26 Post contents: Let's say the neocons primary loyalty is to Israel, as you say. If that's true, than why would they have wanted to attack Iraq? Iraq wasn't a military threat to Israel. If they wanted to use the power of the U.S. military to defend Israel, why not advocate bombing Hamas in Gaza, which was actually killing Israelis at the time? Advocating democracy in the Middle East isn't a pro-Israel position: Arab democracies will inevitably be anti-Israel. Scapegoating second- and third-tier administration officials who happen to be Jews doesn't change the reality that America's adventure in Iraq is the latest in a long string of imperial forays going back to the occupation of The Philippines. Were McKinley, Wilson, Roosevelt, Truman, JFK and Johnson were all Fifth Columnists too? Sent at: 2008 07 24
