A neocon view.

This article by Former Neoconservative Francis Fukuyama outlines how the how and why things have gone badly in Iraq and how the current neocon regime was not expecting the type of reaction from the rest of the world as they got.  The article is quite long and verry interesting.  He does go into detail about the american mind and from his words

"Americans are not, at heart, an imperial people. Even benevolent hegemons sometimes have to act ruthlessly, and they need a staying power that does not come easily to people who are reasonably content with their own lives and society."

He also touches a bit on history.  I would recommend reading it and please give comments on this article.  I'm interested in your views, esp that of junyor and mensrea.
