"Promoting democracy and modernisation in the Middle East is not a solution to jihadist terrorism. "
huh? did i read that right? i thought Bush just said last night on tv that that was the answer?!
who said this?
-one of neo-conservatism's charter members and a scholar most responsible for establishing its post-Reagan policies - Francis Fukuyama.
I have to agree:
What we need are new ideas for how America is to relate to the world - ideas that retain the neoconservative belief in the universality of human rights, but without its illusions about the efficacy of US power and hegemony to bring these ends about.
