Neo-Cons & The Endless War

HTML Mencken writes a great post over at SN! While some of the characters may be new to some, it is the same old song, to steal from the post. & here is another stolen bit:
…which is about the nature of neoconservatism. Unlike traditional conservatives, the neocons aren’t stupid. But like traditional conservatives, they are evil — only much more so. As such, neocons know precisely what kind of political climate they need in order to flourish, and will go great lengths to manipulate the environment accordingly. They need a “long war,” and will ceaselessly agitate for one in times of peace, or inflame and enlarge one that’s already existing.

My emphasis.
