I do tend to agree that Cheney changed the Bush admin’s calculus but OTOH Cheney wasn’t an ultra-hawk until 9/11. It’s funny to look at this statements post Gulf War I versus now.

I disagree. They wanted to invade Iraq in the 90s and sent Clinton a memo as to why; signed by all PNACers - the same crowd that wound up in the Bush administration.

PNAC wanted the American empire to take over the world by any means (“education” or force).

I think Kristal’s website is still out there. Project For A New American Century (IIRC).
