Perle: Road to Neocon Hell Paved With ‘Very Best of Intentions’
Richard Perle ran a fool’s errand by attempting to defend U.S. foreign policy before an audience of Guardian readers in England yesterday night. Since he admits he failed miserably, he thought the second time might be the charm, so he wrote a Comment is Free blog post: We Had the Very Best Intentions. To which I reply: “The Road to Hell is Paved With…”
Does this joker really think having pure intentions should win him any points in this foreign policy debate? What about proper planning and execution? What about understanding what one’s limits should be?
