Pletka's PNAC Conspiracy Theory
The great dismissive of our times is the term "conspiracy theory."
It closes off debate. It paints anyone who doesn't buy the propaganda, questions the anomalies of official cover stories...anyone who connects the unconnected dots...as crazy, paranoid cranks cavorting with Oliver Stone on the grassy knoll of history.
Enter Danielle Pletka. As VP of Foreign and Defense Policy Studies for the Neo-Convicted American Enterprise Institute, she's a high-level propaganda hack for American empire. Moments ago she drew the conspiracy theory sword and cut off the truth at the knees. Appearing on C-SPAN's call-in show, Washington Journal, she fielded a call about PNAC's founding document, "Rebuilding America's Defenses." The caller asked her about the document's plan for the Middle East and call for a "New Pearl Harbor" to set in motion the massive increase in defense spending that we've actually seen since the ascent of Bush the Second. PNAC's founders are at the highest levels of the White House, the Defense and State Departments, the Iraq and Afghanistan occupations...and even at the American Enterprise Institute.
The caller's question was, in Ms. Pletka's world, part of a conspiracy theory. She said that the PNAC document was "thoughtful," and that any mention of the "Pearl Harbor" reference was itself a "conspiracy theory." She said that there was no mention of Pearl Harbor in the document.
And there is the conspiracy. A conspiracy of silence about the game-plan for empire that led to Iraq, to the pre-emptive strike doctrine...to the radical turn in world events we've seen since all those PNAC signatories took over the executive branch. No major news organization has told the people about it. And now, Ms. Pletka gets away with denying what is in black and white. It's a conspiracy theory to refer to words that are, even today, posted on the PNAC website! And because her counterpoint on the show, some typical jerk-off from the Center from American Progress, probably hasn't read the document...or is another cowering critic who fears the conspiracy theorist moniker...the truth did not come out. That poor caller is now a conspiracy theorist, too. Even though he was grounded in the facts.
So, let's look at that "conspiracy theory" in action. Let's look at the highpoints of that piece of work, so to speak. It was written in 1998-1999.
PAGE 4:
Likewise, the Clinton Administration has continued the fiction that the operations of American forces in the Persian Gulf are merely temporary duties. Nearly a decade after the Gulf War, U.S. air, ground and naval forces continue to protect enduring American interests in the region.
PAGE 14:
In the Persian Gulf region, the presence of American forces, along with British and French units, has become a semi-permanent fact of life. Though the immediate mission of those forces is to enforce the no-fly zones over northern and southern Iraq, they represent the long-term commitment of the United States and its major allies to a region of vital importance. Indeed, the United States has for decades sought to play a more permanent role in Gulf regional security. While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein.
PAGE 17:
Over the long term, Iran may well prove as large a threat to U.S. interests in the Gulf as Iraq has. And even should U.S.-Iranian relations improve, retaining forward-based forces in the region would still be an essential element in U.S. security strategy given the longstanding American interests in the region.
PAGE 19:
As a supplement to forces stationed abroad under long-term basing arrangements, the United States should seek to establish a network of “deployment bases” or “forward operating bases” to increase the reach of current and future forces. Not only will such an approach improve the ability to project force to outlying regions, it will help circumvent the political, practical and financial constraints on expanding the network of American bases overseas.
PAGE 51:
Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor. Domestic politics and industrial policy will shape the pace and content of transformation as much as the requirements of current missions.
PAGE 60:
Space itself will become a theater of war, as nations gain access to space capabilities and come to rely on them; further, the distinction between military and commercial space systems – combatants and noncombatants – will become blurred. Information systems will become an important focus of attack, particularly for U.S. enemies seeking to short-circuit sophisticated American forces. And advanced forms of biological warfare that can “target” specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool.
The real conspiracy is the conspiracy of silence about this and the other glaringly obvious dots that remain unconnected. Pletka is a propagandist of the first order, using lies and subterfuge to hide the agenda she and her cohorts are implementing every day all around the world. There are conspiracies, my friends, and some are in full pubic view.

DIVIDE AND CONQUER; DIVIDE AND CONQUER --
The Mess and Violence in Iraq and the Middle East -- is part of the plan, the P.N.A.C. Plan, as such violence continues...
And the Public and Congress are duped with Media phrases (a three-year pattern) of "RECENT surge of violence" -- as if there hasn't been an ONGOING SURGE OF VIOLENCE ALL ALONG!
See Wm. Rivers Pitt's article regarding this Media pattern of "recent surge of violence" at:
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/031706A.shtml
=============
The DoD KNEW of the civil strife that could and would come in Iraq; they were warned. This is why Bush Sr. did not proceed in the Gulf; this is why Bush Sr. thru others, advised Jr. not to invade...
But the NeoCons (who founded the PNAC and are sitting in our Administration now)? That's a different story.
To invade Iraq -- and let the MESS be what it is -- is to uphold Israeli desire; and to
DIVIDE AND CONQUER; DIVIDE AND CONQUER.
THE MORE MESS -- THE MORE A FOOTHOLD CAN BE ACHIEVED ---
until we censure, impeach -- bush et al. OUT! and even put them ON TRIAL!
----------
INDEED:
They do not care... a greater foothold may be achieved, per the P.N.A.C.
WWW.NEWAMERICANCENTURY.ORG -- with an arrogant map of the world on their homepage...and statement of intention for "world leadership"!

Cool blog! Like your ENTHUSIASM! Plust i think you have the best blog name ever!
This is a great article about the PNAC (kudos).
But there is much more at work here folks. Allow me to indulge you in the mother of all conspiracy theories.
When you see Israel at the peace table signing an agreement (with many nations) under the auspices of her mighty ally, the United States, you will know time is short. This, my friends, is where its all heading.
ThomP says this is the best blog name ever!
Indeed, many see through the glass darkly. America is the architect of the New World Order, and the PNAC's "Rebuilding America's Defenses" is the beast's anthem. There are many changes coming folks, I behoove you to get ready for them now. Get yourself right with God.
America spends more on defense than the rest of the world combined. This nation has unprecedented military power. America marched further and faster than any army in world history to sack Baghdad in a mere 26 day campaign. Not only does America have the best trained soldiers (and deep political pockets) but this nation has amassed the most astounding military technology the world has ever known. Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?
Make no mistake, America has built permanent forward operating bases in Iraq and this sole Superpower has absolutely no intentions of leaving Iraq. C'mon, where do you think all of those billions have gone? Into rebuilding Iraq? Right. As the author of this article correctly pointed out, we are beyond the lengthy planning stages now; we are executing. The sooner people recognize this, the better off they will be.
There are three major wars coming in the Middle East. These wars bookend a seven year period of time called the tribulation period. Are you ready to write me off as a conspiracy theory nut yet? If not, bear with me.
Now, its understandable that you wouldn't hear about this prophetic "conspiracy theory" stuff from our government, but what about our fine American churches? Are they not the bastions of truth in this world? Why aren't Christians tuned into whats going on?
I know, I know, that's an easy one. Its obvious our churches are busy attempting to unite church and state so they can force a few of their favorite values (the ones that aren't an inconvenience to them personally) down the throats of liberals. Its the old "holier than thou" syndrome hard at work. While they strain to pull the splinter from the liberal public's eye, they are completely missing the PLANK that's in their own eye. And this too is prophetic (and ultimately dangerous for us).
Forgive them Lord for they know not what they do. Seriously, they have abandoned all truth, and they will set into motion exactly that which they profess to be against. They have completely forgotten Christ's teaching that HIS KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS EARTH. Instead, they are mixing the deadliest of brews, the noxious brew of church and state. Read Fox's Book of the Martyrs if you want a better idea of how this will affect you.
Christians have been lulled into a state of apostasy, and this is a major indication of how late the hour is.
The United States is the beast of Revelation 13. The apostate christians are the whore that rides (controls) this beast in Revelation 17 (at least until the beast turns on the church and destroys her).
There will be no pre-millenium rapture folks. All are LEFT BEHIND until the Lord returns. The Left Behind series is the mantra of the apostate evangelical war-mongering church. The church the neocons espouse. I'm not talking about Christ's true church here (his glorious bride) I'm talking about the fallen church, the church who is failing to be the "watchman on the wall".
That's right, Christians are called to watch, but in America they're too busy worrying about being purpose driven for the world. Again, I'm talking about the rotten part of the church. The part that the bible refers to as the whore (the whore who is drunk--had much of--the blood of the saints). The sooner people understand this the better.
What fellowship hath light with darkness?
In the not too distant future Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city on the planet, will be utterly destroyed. Syria will be no more.
I believe this event will preceed the coming peace treaty with Israel. In fact, I believe it will help usher in this brief period of peace. And then, after Israel tears down it's apartheid wall, and after she feels safe and secure, she will be attacked from the north and the south in a giant pincer movement. This battle is NOT Armageddon. This attack on Israel preceeds Armageddon.
The muslim nations will converge upon her (Turkey, Iran, Egypt, Libya, among others). However, God will destroy the attackers. At this time, Israel will return to God. Israel will abandon the Super Power. Woe to Israel.
Three and a half years after Israel signs the peace treaty (with American backing) the abomination of desolation will occur in the temple (which will have been rebuilt in Jerusalem). The man of sin will finally be revealed. He will declare himself god in much the same way Antiochus Epiphanes did in 168 BC.
My friends, you all know that something is afoot. You will not find satisfactory answers on political websites (though they may help you pass some time). Open your bibles. Study God's word. Pray earnestly for wisdom. Question everything! Be very discerning for deception is everywhere.
Read Matthew 24, Daniel 2, 7 & 9, Ezekial 38 & 39, the book of Revelation ... and eveything else.
The answers are there.
God bless you.
