The ZionCons Anti-Arab, Anti-Islam crusade on behalf of Greater Israel was portrayed as a policy of democratizing the Middle East...

Along with their rise to the most influential positions of power in the Bush administration, the ZionCons attracted new recruits, like New York Times reporter, Judith Miller. What is striking about the operations of the ZionCon 'cabal' is the very open and direct way in which they operated. Lt. General William Oden (former Director of the National Security Agency under Reagan), General Anthony Zinni (retired Marine Commandant), Colonel K. Wilkerson (former chief of staff of Colin Powell), Brent Scowcroft (National Security Adviser to President George Bush the First), and numerous disenchanted officials,including veterans of the intelligence agencies, high level observers, and former diplomats, openly criticized the ZionCon takeover of the US policy and their promiscuous relationship with Israeli generals and Israel's secret international police, the Mossad, who had total access to their offices.

In the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, ZionCons Wolfowitz and Libby were the architects of the military strategy for Rumsfeld and Cheney, their putative bosses. Douglas Feith established the Office of Special Plans to fabricate the lies to justify the war. Judith Miller, David Frum and Ari Fleisher served to disseminate the lies and war propaganda through articles, inter-views, press conferences, and speechwriting for President Bush. A review of the leading newspapers and government documents reveals that at every point in time and policy, the ZionCons echoed—to the letter—the policy demands emanating from the Sharon regime: that the US should invade and destroy the Iraq regime and state apparatus. Not a single ZionCon in the government, or outside in the prestigious private universities or think tanks, voiced the minimum deviation from the war policy of the Sharon regime. In what is probably one of the most cynical ploys in recent history, the ZionCons Anti-Arab, Anti-Islam crusade on behalf of Greater Israel was portrayed as a policy of democratizing the Middle East... by those who bombed Jenin into rubble to those who would napalm Fallujah into ruin.
