William, John: To say that Mr. Perle is a 'neo-conservative' is not really giving Mr. Perle's political beliefs much depth.
Why would Perle confront the UN? With a title like "Thank God for the Death of the UN" one can quite quickly discern that he is not in favor of its existence. For an unbalanced education on Mr. Perle's position, see this: http://www.newamericancentury.org/ This is the website of the Project for the New American Century, whose doctrine in a nutshell (according to them) is this: that American leadership is good both for America and for the world; that such leadership requires military strength, diplomatic energy and commitment to moral principle; and that too few political leaders today are making the case for global leadership. Here is an editorial on PNAC: http://truthout.org/docs_03/022803A.shtml http://truthout.org/docs_02/022203A.htm Best of all, by Maureen Dowd: Perle's Plunder Blunder http://www.nytimes.com/2003/03/23/opinion/23DOWD.html?ex=1049000400&en=b0a55 b4f79e35c68&ei=5062&partner=GOOGLE (url WILL wrap) Thanks, John Ellingsworth http://ellingsworth.org/john/ ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
