Entry: All Quiet on the K Street Front Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/all_quiet_on_the_k_street_front#412 Post contents: While things were finally falling quiet for our grandfathers on the Western Front, the ideological grandfathers of the neo-cons were just getting started in Russia. The “pre-neo-cons”, or Trotskyites, were putting theory into gory practice. Lev Trotsky left his think-tank colleagues behind in New York’s Lower East Side and took a ship back to Russia. To give Trotsky credit, he didn’t just hang around the Bolshevik version of the Green Zone. No, he was proactive. He was so proactive that Russia is only now recovering from it. I hope Iraq can begin to recover from the current version of “permanent revolution” much sooner. It is worth noting the neo-Trotskyites like Senator Liebermann now tell us that Russia is not recovering, it is back-sliding. Make of that what you wish. Sent at: 2008 08 30
