The
War Party Is Under Fire
–
and our aim is true
 A
cruel and futile conflict rages in Iraq, and we
all know who was behind it. The neoconservatives have
been on a global rampage since 9/11, but theirs was not an
overnight success: their march from obscurity to the Pentagon
and the White House took decades – and plenty of cash. After
patiently infiltrating the core institutions of government
and the intelligentsia, the neocons dominate both parties
and thus the making of policy. Their network of think-tanks,
magazines, newspapers, political action committees, and lobbyists
now covers Washington, D.C., like a spider's web. Sadly, the
Iraq disaster hasn't halted their plans for yet another war.
We warned
our readers early on about this dangerous cult, and our grimmest
prophecies have all come to pass. Antiwar.com has been on
the neocons' case since 1995, when they were virtually unknown
outside of academia. Without our constant efforts to shine
a light on their agenda, they might still be in the darkness
where they thrive.
We don't
have the neocons' fat wallets and friends in high places,
but we do have the global reach of the World Wide Web. They
have Rupert Murdoch and other billionaires – not to mention
your tax dollars – at their disposal. We have only
your voluntary contributions.
