Richard, did you ever hear back from Holbrooke? I’m repeatedly coming across the meme that he is a neo-con at heart.

And Mark Wallace, the group’s director, was one of Bush’s most virulent ideolgoues, a Rove protege, & played a senior role his 2004 re-election campaign.

So much for “vacuous.”

Silverstein writes, “Clearly, this is a further attempt by the Republican right (including forces with Aipac and other right-wing Jewish groups and donors) to set a tone in Washington that will justify more bellicose and belligerent policies toward Iran.”

An examination of the UANI website will show, however, that Silverstein’s argument is vacuous. Three of the members listed on the UANI Board of Directors webpage (including UANI’s two co-founders), are now working for the Obama administration.

@publius: I STRONGLY doubt Holbrooke signed the PNAC Iraq letter. You’d need to prove that to me before I believed you. I also don’t believe Ross did since he was a member of the Clinton State Dept. at the time the PNAC ltr. was written.

They said it — Dennis Ross has scuttled peace in the Mideast for years, and Holbrooke bought into the neo-con vision. Their article today in WSJ is co-authored by James Woolsey (all three were PNAC signers) and Wallace.

I loathe fundamentalist Islam with a passion (not to mention reprehensible terrorists), but “Israel first” is not the answer.
