Neo-Con Agenda: Iran, China, Russia, Latin America...

by Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON - An influential foreign-policy neo-conservative with long-standing ties to top hawks in the administration of President George W Bush has laid out what he calls ''a checklist of the work the world will demand of this president and his subordinates in a second term.''

The list, which begins with the destruction of Fallujah in Iraq and ends with the development of ''appropriate strategies'' for dealing with threats posed by China, Russia and ''the emergence of a number of aggressively anti-American regimes in Latin America,'' also calls for ''regime change'' in Iran and North Korea.

The list's author, Frank Gaffney, the founder and president of the Center for Security Policy (CSP), also warns that Bush should resist any pressure arising from the anticipated demise of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat to resume peace talks that could result in Israel's giving up ''defensible boundaries.''

While all seven steps listed by Gaffney in an article published Friday morning in the 'National Review Online' have long been favored by prominent neo-cons, the article itself, 'Worldwide Value', is the first comprehensive compilation to emerge since Bush's re-election Tuesday.

1. Frank Gaffney is a lunatic

Years ago his web site promoted using the Armed Forces to suppress US civil unrest and anticipated insurrections and uprisings against the government, which he was predicting at that time.

He has no problem with American troops being used to kill Americans. He has no problem with killing anyone for that matter, as long as it enhances his nazi like plans for world domination. An intregal part of those plans is enhancing the career and financial accounts of Mr. Gaffney.
