“In September [2000], the neoconservative Project for a New American Century [PNAC] releases an influential paper, ‘Rebuilding America’s Defenses,’ a blueprint for U.S. global hegemony that urges, among other things, the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. Those affiliated with the PNAC include Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and Paul Wolfowitz, all of whom will become key members of George W. Bush’s administration.” [The 15th of the month used for date sorting purposes only.]
