Oh Crap
This noise again?
Think Palin had the right summary: Let Allah sort them out
If 2 radical Islamic nations decided to use nuclear weapons on each other, would we pick a side and send a military response?
This is little different. It’s all WMDs. Biological is another story as that can go into the wild and take out the world.
Palin is a good summary of evolving from a NeoCon to an Isolationist. She evolved just like the freepers and many rank and file evolved.
Like most governors, she didn't know a lot about foreign policy. So when she joined the campaign, Randy Scheunemann was assigned to get her up to speed. He is/was a very prominent NeoCon and was the top foreign policy advisor to the McCain campaign. After the campaign he stayed with Palin as a top advisor. He was a constant companion, even traveling with her on the Asian trip. Palin was a strong advocate of NeoCon foreign policy.
In Early 2010, another NeoCon, Michael Goldfarb, join Palin as a second advisor. That rocked on until 2011 and Libya.
Palin turned against the NeoCons because they were instrumental in the Libya intervention. She fired Scheunemann and Goldfarb and hired the Realist foreign policy advisor, Peter Schweiser.
That rocked until 2013 when some of the Realists started joining the NeoCons on intervening in Syria. That is when she joined the isolationists .
It was just a few years ago that the vast majority of Freepers backed NeoCon foreign policy, now most of them have become isolationists.
As for the WSJ, they switched to NeoCon when they were bought by NewsCorp/Murdoch.
