Entry: Buchanan, Kennan, and the "Good War" Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/buchanan_kennan_and_the_good_war#28489 Post contents: I completely agree! The fact that neocons defend WW One and Two as near identical struggles against the same enemy (Wilhelmine Germany being no different from Nazi Germany) is appalling. The fact that there is no "Kennanite" in the upper leadership levels of the American power elite today is profoundly disturbing. GWB and McCain would rather read Nathan Scharansky (a critic of Kennan)on democracy-building than the greatest diplomat that the US ever produced. The neocons have succeeded in perpetrating the lie that Kennan's realism is identical to amoralism, whereas democracy-building is a fine blend of realism and idealism. Sent at: 2008 12 02
