Neocons revive Committee on the Present Danger by Tom Regan

Shmuel Rosner, writing in the Israeli daily Ha'aretz, also describes the battle between the realists, the neoconservatives, and the "paleo-conservatives" (often identified with the positions of former GOP presidential candidate and TV commentator Patrick Buchanan) over foreign policy . . . The paleocons want – in fact, demand – America to go back to being a plain old "republic." Modest and self-enclosed, without pretensions to reform the world, without just wars on distant continents. And they, of course, are the "true Republicans." Authentic.
