One of the things most "doomed liberals" don't know about their cause is that they've got a legitimate full-blooded Secret Master of the World on their side.
George Soros is insanely wealthy, very intelligent and fights on the side of the angels. So when The Atlantic prints one of his essays on American foreign affairs, the Illuminated immediately sit up and take notice. Soros argues that the current expansion of American military power is not unlike the bubble which fueled the dot-com craze of the late 90s, and that both are based on the same sort of hubris:
"The Bush doctrine, first enunciated in a presidential speech at West Point in June of 2002, and incorporated into the National Security Strategy three months later, is built on two pillars: the United States will do everything in its power to maintain its unquestioned military supremacy; and the United States arrogates the right to pre-emptive action. In effect, the doctrine establishes two classes of sovereignty: the sovereignty of the United States, which takes precedence over international treaties and obligations; and the sovereignty of all other states, which is subject to the will of the United States. This is reminiscent of George Orwell's Animal Farm: all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
The Fourth Man highly recommends reading the rest of this for an Illuminati-eye view of how George W. Bush is setting himself - and the rest of us - up for a fall.
