Neocon John Yoo -- you know, the guy who tortured the English language to pave the way for Bush to continue torturing people -- has had enough of messing around with laws and constitutions: It is time for the United States to stop hiding behind such obsolete,...

Neocon commissar, Jennifer Rubin, is high on war fever. With no rational argument available to justify U.S. aggression against Syria, she falls back on good ‘ole collectivism: Assad’s crimes are not merely against Syrians but against the civilized world. Wow! Assad...

As RPI Executive Director, Daniel McAdams, has pointed out, Syria is starting to look like “Iraq: The Sequel”.Neocon Senators McCain and Graham know the playbook quite well and have issued a very predictable joint statement on Syria: Now is the time for decisive...

Max Boot gives a glimpse of how cold neocons are when it comes to the value of an individual human life: “Promoting democracy can be messy in the short-run and isn’t always possible in every circumstance but, in general, it is the best long-term bet for promoting...

Neocons swindle their constituents into believing that they want to spread American values throughout the world. They talk about things like “bringing stability,” yet only chaos has followed neocon-prescribed international interventions. The cold hard truth is that...

Neocon political commissar Jennifer Rubin is throwing a fit that the U.S. just won’t attack Iran already! In her mind, the Israelis are on the right page and the U.S. is hopeless. She writes: The Israelis, not without justification, fear the Obama administration is so...

Neocons held no love for Egypt’s deposed President Mohamed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood, which some felt threatened the US “influence” over Egyptian affairs that is rented with the annual $1.5 billion foreign assistance check. That a democracy was to be undermined...

Now that President Obama has officially opened the Syrian door, neocons are tripping over themselves to pile in and deepen the US commitment. For the neocon warmonger, the toughest battle is getting that initial opening. Neocons have been persistently aggressive...
