The Neo-Cons should be viewed in the lens of no left and right, no Democrat or Republican. They can be viewed in the lens of Nationalist (America first) versus Globalist (someone who places the interest of everyone else over the interests of America). There are Globalists in the GOP just as in the Democrat Party. Their end result is the same, a weaker America subservient to the needs and whims of the rest of the globe. Globalists despise the nation states and cannot stand a powerful, hegemonic nation state that looks out for it’s own interests.
Make no mistake, globalism is Socialism. It destroys wealth in advanced countries and spreads and misery to all countries only benefiting ‘the elites’ of both. The wealth, treasure, and blood of the powerful country is spent in far off places who do not want or need or deserve our help. Our jobs have been sent abroad, our military has been ground down, and our economy is in shambles. For What? Really. FOR WHAT? This started under Bush Senior and continued unabated until now.
I say good riddance to these Neo-Cons who would fight to YOUR last drop of blood and your last dollar in the name of global socialism. These people are not patriots, they are not ‘great Americans’, they are Socialist. The left is from whence these people came. They were Leftist Democrats; now they can just go away.
I disagree with the title below, however, these people are not Conservatives. they are Socialists.
BYE-BYE, NEOCONS. The Jewish conservatives and ‘nation builders’ who led us into Iraq and Afghanistan bet the farm against Donald Trump, and lost. What now?
Israeli leaders of all major parties warn of two existential threats to Israel: a U.N. resolution forcing Israel back to the 1967 armistice line, and a nuclear-armed Iran. With Donald Trump’s election both threats have receded into the distance, and the State of Israel is more secure than it has been in its history. Yet American Jews, at least the majority of politically active Jews of high public profile, are miserable. America’s best-known Jewish conservatives—the “neocons”—have burnt their bridges to the incoming administration. It is one of the strangest, and silliest, episodes in Jewish political history….That leaves Kristol, Podhoretz, Krauthammer and the neoconservatives in the worst of all possible political worlds. They switched sides during the election and cheered for a Democratic victory. After their election defeat, they threw a collective tantrum, burning bridges to the winning side. That makes them a liability for the foreseeable future and leaves a giant lacuna in American Jewish political life.
