POLITICS-US: Neo-Con Ideologues Launch New Foreign Policy Group
WASHINGTON, Mar 25 (IPS) – A newly-formed and still obscure neo-conservative foreign policy organisation is giving some observers flashbacks to the 1990s, when its predecessor staked out the aggressively unilateralist foreign policy that came to fruition under the George W. Bush administration.
The blandly-named Foreign Policy Initiative (FPI) – the brainchild of Weekly Standard editor William Kristol, neo-conservative foreign policy guru Robert Kagan, and former Bush administration official Dan Senor – has thus far kept a low profile; its only activity to this point has been to sponsor a conference pushing for a U.S. “surge” in Afghanistan.
I don’t have much to add, I just thought I would put this on everyone’s radar.

The Foreign Policy Initiative (FPI) is a newly formed, non-profit, non-partisan organization intending to qualify as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code that promotes:
In advance of the NATO summit in Strasbourg-Kehl and on the same day as the International Conference on Afghanistan in The Hague, this conference will offer a unique opportunity to reflect on recent developments and examine the options confronting the Obama Administration with insights from leading analysts and members of Congress.
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence.".
Iran, NATO in first talks in 30 years: NATO HQ Brussels
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."“a strong military with the defense budget needed to ensure that America is ready to confront the threats of the 21st century”
Like the F-22 Raptor!
Yo dat plane flies sideways.. Into mountains!
I suggest that we do indeed confront the threats of the 21st century head-on and purge the neo-con internal enemy. It was necessary for Germany to undergo de-Nazification at the end of the Second World War; it may be equally necessary for us to undergo de-neo-conification.
These people are not going to stop on their own.
