Project for the New American Century
Born in 1997, this neo-conservative think tank, containing many of the
current US administration, was established to review US defence policy.
Members include Jeb Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz
to name but a few. In 2000 they produced the defence review,
Rebuilding America's Defenses, in which The Project makes clear
that its military intentions in Iraq "...transcend the issue of the
regime of Saddam Hussein."

on Israel, the war on Iraq, and American civil liberties. A profoundly
informed campaigner, his views demand notice.
