Neo-cons’ plans for global domination top annual censored story list

[TheWebHead]

If there’s one influence that has shaped worldwide political events over the past year, it’s the extent to which the Bush administration has exploited the events of Sept. 11, 2001, to solidify its military and economic control of the world at the expense of democracy, true justice and the environment. But George W. Bush hasn’t simply been responding to world events. The agenda his administration has followed fits perfectly with a clearly defined plan that’s been in place for more than a decade.

The neo-conservative blueprint for United States military domination is hardly a secret. A group called the Project for the New American Century—a think tank founded by hawks who are now in prominent jobs in the White House—released a version of it three years ago. The document is shocking in its candor: it asserts that the United States should be moving unilaterally to assert military control around the globe, and that all that’s necessary to jump-start the effort is a “new Pearl Harbor.”

Yet none of the major news media in this country have reported on this document or on the fact that Bush is so closely following its script.

That’s the biggest “censored” story in the nation last year, according to Sonoma State University’s Project Censored, a 27-year-old program dedicated to shining some light on the shortcomings of the major news media.

1. That story needs to be told by a free press.

Wonder if we can get the Guardian or some paper in South America to print the story. It will never see the light of day in our "banana republic."
