Although it is generally understood that American
neoconservatives pushed hard for the war in Iraq, this book
forcefully argues that the neocons' goal was not the
spread of democracy, but the protection
of Israel's interests in the Middle
East. Showing that the neocon movement has always
identified closely with the interests of Israel's
Likudnik right wing, the discussion contends that neocon
advice on Iraq was the exact opposite of conventional
United States foreign policy, which has always sought to
maintain stability in the region to promote the flow of
oil. Various players in the rush to war are assessed
according to their motives, including President Bush, Ariel
Sharon, members of the foreign-policy establishment, and the
American people, who are seen not as having been dragged into war
against their will, but as ready after 9/11 for retaliation.
