The Neoconservative Tragedy - Slate
The Neoconservative Tragedy - Jacob Weisberg
Update: Previously I posted in this spot an article by the New York Times. I've since discovered that the New York Times makes it very difficult to use links to their website. As a result, I'm substituting another article from Slate (far more user friendly for bloggers) The New York Times Fukuyama Op-Ed is excellent though, published on February 19, 2006, and if you're a member of Times Select (yes the NYTimes makes you pay to get their old articles), you can read it.
This is an extraordinary opinion piece by Jacob Weisberg in Slate magazine discussing Francis Fukuyama's, new book describing the failure of neoconservatism. Fukuyama, a leading neoconservative intellectual, was a supporter of the use of US military power to spread american values throughout the world. In the light of the Bush administration's Iraq debacle, Fukuyama is rethinking the wisdom of such hubris.
