In reply to the discussion: Pat Buchanan out at MSNBC [View all]LeftishBrit
(41,205 posts)21. So was the British National Party; that doesn't make them good people.
There are two main types of right-wing hawk: the neocon-imperialists who see all foreigners as either friends or enemies, and wish to influence the world at the point of a sword; and the xenophobic-isolationists, including Buchanan, who hate all foreigners; avoid 'foreign' wars but become hyperaggressive if they imagine any threat to their own country (e.g. Buchanan did support the Cold War and the Vietnam war because he considered communism to be direct threat to the United States); and tend to be racist and to whip up hatred of 'enemies within'.
Both types are dangerous, just in different ways.
