Alternative Kerry ad: PNAC's need for a "Pearl Harbor"
Edited on Fri Jun-18-04 02:19 AM by zulchzulu
Check out the "Project For A New American Century" and download their PDF (http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf) and look on page 63:

"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some
catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor. "

If you go to the PNAC site now, they've taken off 80% of the Bush administration contacts from the "About Us" section.

The ad would go something like this:

(photos in succession)

Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, William Kristol, Richard Armitage, Lewis Libby, Elliot Abrams, Edwin Meese, Dan Quayle, Casper Weinberger, Steve Forbes, Jeb Bush, William Buckley, Jr., Linda Chavez, George Herbert Walker Bush...

(closeup of PNAC's p.63 mentioning a "needed Pearl harbor)

..needed a Pearl Harbor to happen so that we would want to invade Iraq.

(911 images and sound from pilots)

They let 911 happen.

We went to Iraq for them.

They are very happy. And making lots and lots of money.

(Cheney smiling...)

The soldiers that die for them only help keeping the profits better.

(caskets and soldiers in Iraq sand)

Got rope?

The dems are involved with the PNAC too. You have to get a different leadership in the party if you want change. Or you have to figure out a way to get a decent third party movement going that is also strategically intelligent. Nader isn't an option on this account.
