The Origins Of The Neocons And Their Lunatic World View | A History With Professor Michael Brenner

Neocons are about the most dangerous species in international relations today. They are the kind of people who would rather see a million dead than chose a cooperative framework to resolve a (perceived) problem. Let's remember the memorable words of Ultra-Neocon Madeleine Albright: When asked in 1992 at an interview if half a million dead Iraqi Children which the US sanctions on the country had caused was worth it, Albright replied: “I think that is a very hard choice, but the price, we think, the price is worth it.” (). If Hitler came back, he'd be a neocon. In this talk, professor emeritus Michael Brenner gives a comprehensive overview of the genesis and development of US neocons and the damage they are causing in international relations. ------------------------------------------------------ Pascal’s academic articles about neutrality studies: “In Defense of Neutrals: Why They’re More Than Fence Sitter” Foreign Policy, June 6, 2023. “The Future of Neutrality”.
