The Neocons War


The image the neos would have us conjure here is that of Allied forces being
wined and feted as they freed French villages from their Nazi occupiers. But
Iraq isn¹t France in this conflict; it¹s more like Germany, where, as the
one-time GIs can attest, the reception to U.S and U.K. forces was a good
deal frostier, even among Germans who detested their leaders.

When the histories of the U.S.-Iraqi war are written, someone is going to
have to track down when exactly the neoconservatives sold the Brooklyn
Bridge to our president.
