I've got to admit that during the time between 9/11 and 2005 I had a great deal of respect for these "Neocons" (Perle and entourage). I appreciated their disdain for the UN, the EU and them staunchly making the case against Saddam (I consider his removal right). But Perle and his groomed protege Chalabi are nothing but frauds. Opportunists who denounced the war effort the moment it didn't go their way.

Perle and Ledeen lost me completely the moment I learned of their cooperation with the terrorist Islamomarxist MEK cult.

Marcus Tullius Cicero---Roman Statesman---Speech in the Roman Senate - 42 BC

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
