Anyone
who thought Bush's second term would mean a moderation of
the neoconservative
agenda of perpetual war was bound to be bitterly disappointed
– and the
bad news is already confirmed.
The moderates
are out – the radicals are in.
They're talking
about Paul Wolfowitz – the intellectual architect of the
Iraq war – as the new National Security Advisor. Rumsfeld
will stay – and Colin
Powell, the lone voice of moderation in the top foreign
policy councils of this administration, is rumored to be on
the way out.
Bereft of restraint, or common sense, this ideology-driven
administration is determined to spread the gospel of "democracy"
with evangelical
zeal – at gunpoint, whether the peoples of the Middle East
want it or not.
The neoconservatives
who took
control of American foreign policy early on in this administration
are only just now hitting their stride. It's war, war, and
yet more war – war without mercy. We must fight them, stop
them, expose their lies and their motives – but we can't do
it without you.
Yesterday,
235 of you contributed over $12,000, and we thank you. But
we need to raise a total of $50,000 this week to continue
at our current level through the next quarter.
Forget
the usual fundraising alarmism – this country has never been
in more danger. We are losing ourselves – our character as
a people – in a bloody orgy of evil, and moral Americans must
stand up and be counted.
