    If only The Plan for the New America Century got this kind of attention before 9/11.

      Well the Heritage foundation had a huge roll in getting the Patriot Act Passed and used a national tragedy to do it…they have no shame and are going after our freedoms like a crack head looking for a fix.

        The initial copy of The Project for the New American Century that was distributed in a closed Republican conference and had a graphic of a plane hitting the twin towers on the cover.

        This conference was well before 9/11.

      It’s The Project For The New American Century, and they didn’t say anything that wasn’t being said since Reagan, since like 1/2 of the folks involved were in Reagan’s, or HW Bush’s political machine.

      Also not mentioned is how many of those involved with the Project had deep ties to Israel and, to a lesser degree, the Saudis.

        Oh. Since Reagan they were talking about perpetrating a major attack on the American homeland to create widespread panic resulting in the American people voluntarily giving up major freedoms and all of their privacy?

        Didn’t know that.
