Among the key conclusions of PNAC's defense strategy document (Rebuilding America's Defenses) were the following <3> (
http://www.fpif.org/papers/02men/box1_body.html):
"Develop and deploy global missile defenses to defend the American homeland and American allies, and to provide a secure basis for U.S. power projection around the world."
Translation: Conquer the world by land, sea,air, and even outer space. Detain, imprison, torture, and/or destroy any individual, group, or nation that gets in the way of the neocons’ crusade for global dictatorship."Control the new 'international commons' of space and 'cyberspace,' and pave the way for the creation of a new military service--U.S. Space Forces--with the mission of space control."
Translation: Why stop at conquering the world when conquering the universe is so much fun? While we’re at it, we can use the Internet and outer space to try to conquer the angels, saints, and even God Himself!"Increase defense spending, adding $15 billion to $20 billion to total defense spending annually."
Translation: $15 to 20 billion more? Is that all? OOPS, I forgot the Pentagon has to pay for those weapons programs that don’t work with cuts in pay and benefits for military personnel and even more cuts in veterans’ benefits. And don’t forget the millions of civilians who will suffer, because we don’t care about them. They’re just the surplus population."Exploit the 'revolution in military affairs' to insure the long-term superiority of U.S. conventional forces."
Translation: Bomb nations from the comfort of your own living room."Need to develop a new family of nuclear weapons designed to address new sets of military requirements" complaining that the U.S. has "virtually ceased development of safer and more effective nuclear weapons."
Translation: Scrap the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty so we can nuke “uncooperative” nations into oblivion. This gives new meaning to “nuclear family.”"Facing up to the realities of multiple constabulary missions that will require a permanent allocation of U.S. forces."
Translation: Let’s start World War 4 by picking fights with multiple unarmed countries, while lying to the American people by pretending they have WMD’s. Then pretend that nations who repel our invasions are insurgents or even terrorists. Colonializing one country at a time isn’t fun."America must defend its homeland" by "reconfiguring its nuclear force" and by missile defense systems that "counteract the effects of the proliferation of ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction."
Translation: What if the weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles never existed to begin with? Simple solution: lie to the American people and pretend that there are WMD’s. The people are too stupid to see through our weapons of mass deception!"Need for a larger U.S. security perimeter" and the U.S. "should seek to establish a network of 'deployment bases' or 'forward operating bases' to increase the reach of current and future forces," citing the need to move beyond Western Europe and Northeast Asia to increased permanent military presence in Southeast Asia and "other regions of East Asia." Necessary "to cope with the rise of China to great-power status."
Translation: Plan on picking fights with China to prove to the world that America is the only superpower allowed on this planet. So what if we outsourced all our American manufacturing jobs to China? They’re not supposed to get any ideas of becoming a superpower rivaling us? That’s America’s prerogative.Redirecting the U.S. Air Force to move "toward a global first-strike force."
Translation: Bomb first; ask questions later.End the Clinton administration's "devotion" to the Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty.
Translation: Scrapping the ABM treaty is a start. Let’s also scrap any treaty we don’t like, and by the way, forget about the rule of law itself. Laws and other restrictions only apply to Democrats and foreign countries."North Korea, Iran, Iraq, or similar states
to undermine American leadership, intimidate American allies, or threaten the American homeland itself."
Translation: These are just the first countries we’re going to pick on.
"Main military missions" necessary to "preserve Pax Americana" and a "unipolar 21st century" are the following: "secure and expand zones of democratic peace, deter rise of new great-power competitor, defend key regions (Europe, East Asia, Middle East), and exploit transformation of war."
Translation: America intends to start a global empire, and if you don’t like it, tough! We’re going to be dictators of the world, and that’s all there is to it. So submit or die!
According to the PNAC report, "The American peace has proven itself peaceful, stable, and durable. Yet no moment in international politics can be frozen in time: even a global Pax Americana will not preserve itself." To preserve this "American peace" through the 21st century, the PNAC report concludes that the global order "must have a secure foundation on unquestioned U.S. military preeminence." The report struck a prescient note when it observed that "the process of transformation is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event--like a new Pearl Harbor."
Translation: So this is the real reason we engineered those planes ramming into the Twin Towers and the Pentagon; so we can blame bin Laden and justify ramming our unpopular, destructive imperial ambitions down the throats of humanity.
