"CNSI adds its voice to those... in urging the Administration to abandon its plans for an unnecessary and unprovoked invasion of Iraq. CNSI believes that such an undertaking would be fraught with potential negative consequences for US national security.".

They lost me on that one.

Me too. Once I read this, my first thought was a site MASQUARADING as a conservative site, so they throw in a lot of "unimportant" things conservatives may agree with, but their REAL agenda is to be against the war with Iraq.

Isn't the timing of their creation just a bit suspicious too? NONE of the other items are time critical, except the war with Iraq. Maybe I have a suspicious mind, but what if they just want to have more credibility to propagandize against the war w Iraq? Something like: "We are a conservative think tank and we agree with Bush, EXCEPT for this "unnecessary and unprovoked" INVASION of Iraq". Kind of like my re-registering as a Democrat, so I can legitimately say, "I am a registered Democrat, but I wouldn't vote for Gray Davis to save my life" -- it would have more credibility, than if I say, as a Republican, I wouldn't vote for him, no matter what.

Also note the news links they have -- they are mostly links that are against the Iraq war.
