-Caveat Lector- <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"> </A> -Cui Bono?- News: alt.current-events.clinton.whitewater From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Wayne McGuire) Date: 1997/11/22 Subj: Re: THE OCTOPUS = NEOCONSERVATISM Anyone who has been reading Commentary for the last decade or two will understand the political agenda of the neoconservative movement. I also strongly recommend that you read the following book: Ehrman, John. The Rise of Neoconservatism: Intellectuals and Foreign Affairs, 1945-1994. New Haven: Yale University Press, c1995. THE OCTOPUS AND NEOCONSERVATISM These are some of the key traits that identify members of The Octopus: 1. militantly anti-Communist 2. militantly pro-CIA 3. militantly pro-Israel 4. militantly pro-Mossad 5. militantly global interventionist 6. militantly global statist 7. militantly anti-"terrorist" 8. militantly anti-Islam 9. militantly pro-Jewish fundamentalist 10. militantly pro-Christian fundamentalist 11. militantly pro-cultural authoritarian 12. militantly anti-libertarian Members of the Octopus strongly support the CIA, Israel, the Mossad, global statism, global interventionism, Jewish fundamentalism, Christian fundamentalism and cultural authoritarianism. They strongly oppose "terrorism," Communism, Islam and libertarianism. One puts "terrorism" in quotes when referring to the supposed anti-terrorism of the Octopus, because Octopus members have been among the leading practitioners of terrorism in the world. They use the term "terrorism" purely as a crude and dishonest propaganda device to justify their own aggressive violence. In sum, members of the Octopus are by and large neoconservatives and fascists who inhabit the extreme political right, although many neoconservatives are former extreme leftists who never lost their affection for an intrusive statism. Their psychological profile fits the typical totalitarian perfectly. Many members of the the Octopus are obsessed with the interests, conflicts and enemies of the state of Israel, and are only interested in increasing the oppressive police power of the American government as a means of enhancing the security of Israel. They have managed to damage seriously the reputation and best interests of the CIA, the FBI and Israel. Many non-Jewish members of The Octopus are in truth virulent anti-Semites whose only interest in Israel has been to use it as a weapon in the war against Communism and as a justification to increase the power of their intelligence and police agencies over American citizens and the world in general. The Octopus constitutes one of the most bizarre political alliances ever to appear in world politics. It is intrinsically unstable and prone to vicious internecine plots and conspiracies. It could blow up spectacularly at any moment, since key factions within the Octopus profoundly fear and hate one another.
