Why we fight...

...and who we're up against. Alterman on the neo-con war planners…
I think these people really are planning a decades-long "war of civilizations," in which they make the world an unsafe place to be an American. They are not conservatives; they are revolutionaries, no less convinced than the Bolsheviks that they alone possess the truth, irrespective of evidence.
Counter-revolutionaries, really. Radical heirs, as I've said, to the revolutionary era Tories. The people that have never much cared for American egalitarianism and liberty, who would amend the Constitution beyond recognition, if not out of existence, to return to open rule by aristocracy (they've succeeded to a startling degree, of course, but they won't admit it yet).

In short, Republicans.

It's why I'm always saying…
