Thread: The PNAC is Back

The PNAC is back

The list contains the same nasty names under a "new" organization with a different name:

Taxpayers, Israel, Corporations - the usual. It's now the Foundation for the Defense of Democracy

Look at the membership list, a regular who's who of Neocons:

The FDD, Who We Are

The Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) is a non-partisan policy institute dedicated exclusively to promoting pluralism, defending democratic values, and fighting the ideologies that threaten democracy.

FDD was founded shortly after 9/11 by a group of visionary philanthropists and policymakers to support the defense of democratic societies under assault by terrorism and militant Islamism. Our Leadership Council of Distinguished Advisors includes former FBI Director Louis J. Freeh, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former State Department Under Secretary Paula Dobriansky, Forbes CEO Steve Forbes, former National Security Advisor Robert “Bud” McFarlane, former Ambassador Max Kampelman, Weekly Standard Editor William Kristol, Sen. Joe Lieberman (ID-CT), and former CIA Director R. James Woolsey.

Those affiliated with FDD come from many backgrounds and political perspectives, but all believe:

• No one should be denied basic human rights, including minority rights, women’s rights, and religious freedom.

• Free and democratic nations have a right to defend themselves and an obligation to defend one another.

• Terrorism, the deliberate use of violence against civilians to achieve political objectives, is always wrong and must never be condoned.

A think tank with a solid track record of transforming ideas into actions that get results, FDD uniquely combines policy research, counterterrorism and democracy education, strategic communications, and investigative journalism.

The Foundation for Defense of Democracies focuses its efforts where opinions are formed and, ultimately, where the war of ideas will be won or lost: in the policy community, in the media, on college campuses, and in the courthouse, both at home and abroad.

there are some key names in that line up that are red flags, nothing they do is good for "America" unless you are in the top 1% as that is the only America they fight for.

I feel sorry for anyone thats going to be living in the US 50-60 years from now. I give the neo-cons one thing, they are great liars and apparently masters of deception. they keep selling policies to Americans that are counter productive and people keep eating it up.
