Nuclear Proliferation May be a Neocon Goal by David Sugar

While nuclear proliferation may be in the long term strategic interest of this administration, by far the most valuable and immediate fallout from a successful North Korea nuclear test itself are right here at home for Mr. Bush. Should we ever make the mistake of actually capturing Osama, and people begin to suspect that the war on terror is just something cynically used to keep the population in fear and doubt and to pass laws offering ever tighter control over the American public by a fearful ruling elite, well now the administration and those elites behind it will have a brand new threat to use, perhaps one delivered just in time to assure a that a fearful American public makes the correct permitted choice again in 2008. This is an administration that rules by fear and intimidation, and those behind it wish to keep it that way.
