The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (FDD)
The old pnac is now bigger than ever, this is the man behind the curtain.

Two days after Sept. 11 FDD began operations as a new policy institute focused on terrorism and democratization, especially in the Middle East. According to FDD, it “was founded shortly after 9/11 by a group of visionary philanthropists and policymakers to engage in the worldwide war of ideas and to support the defense of democratic societies under assault by terrorism and Militant Islamism.”

How did FDD get up and running so quickly? There is no official FDD history but various reports indicate that FDD emerged from a new right-wing Zionist organization focused on outreach to U.S. universities that was taking form prior to the Sept. 11 attacks.

1. The chief public face .....
....... Frank Gaffney, shown here under the title of another equally evil organization.



This man has a diagnosed malady: Belicose Priapism .... otherwise known as a war hardon.
