Ganster mentality
From the point of view of organized criminals, it is desirable to fight losing wars in far-off places.

It makes sense to reduce populations to a state of misery and desperation.....

4. Fuck that was good!
It is not, as Senator Clinton asserts, "a vast right wing conspiracy." Gangsters are not ideologues. Lacking humanistic values or any future orientation outside their need to hold on power and wealth, their "political" views are entirely instrumental of their goals of domination and subjugation of the greatest number of people for the greatest amount of profit.

Bingo. Many conpiracy theories are in infantile projection of our ideological yearnings for order into the void of the criminal power structure. People suppose a brilliant but evil design in Bush's doings when in fact there is none, except for the Neo-Con's desire to profit.

The author is wrong when he downplays the role of ideology, though. Strauss and Marx both understood that it is fundamental, the ruling class necessarily controls the production of ideas (Marx) in this sense, it truly is the philosopher kings who rule the world. (Strauss) Recommending that we love one another is simply not enough, Jesus tried that long ago. One must continually build a functional ideology off of core values such as Love and Truth.
