8/9/2019 Breaking Down Doran and the Neo-Con Conception
1/3
Michael S Doran is called by many the
foremost expert on Muslim extremists and is
highly regarded among the elite of our society for
his work with The Council on Foreign Relations.He has also
served as head of Near East and North
African Affairs in the National Security Council
(NSC) having been appointed to in August of 2005.
He has served as an assistant Secretary of Defense
during the second George W. Bush administration.
Beginning with an article written by Mr. Doran in
January/February 2002 issue of Foreign Affairs (the flagship
publication for The
Council on Foreign Affairs) Somebody else's civil war Doran
writes that Osama bin
Laden sought -- and has received -- an international military
crackdown, one he wants
to exploit for his particular brand of revolutionBin Laden
produced a piece of high
political theater. This would seem that Doran believes that the
attacks on September
11th were somehow a radicle Muslim extremists elaborate attempt
at manipulate the
U.S. into a war in which one of the consequences would be the
forwarding of his
agenda. However, Doran ignores key issues in the assumption.
Osama bin Laden has in fact never taken responsibility for the
September 11 th
attacks. The only evidence to support the theory that he was
responsible came from a
grainy video tape in which Bin Laden remarks that he is pleased
about the incident,
but never takes responsibility. Even on the FBIs most wanted
list, Osama Bin Laden
is not charged with the September 11th Attacks. They have stated
openly that they Donot have enough evidence to charge him said
Robert S. Mueller, Director of The FBI.
Even with the jury still out on if Bin Laden committed the
attacks Doran still
presumes to make the assumption that The script was obvious:.
The script is
anything but obvious. There are other facts that seem to allude
Doran. According to
a BBC article "During the anti-Soviet jihad, Bin Laden and his
fighters received
American and Saudi funding. In fact the name Al-Qaeda was
actually originated in
the CIA. It was the list ofassets or operatives that were
recruited by the CIA to fight
the attempted Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 80s. Most
of which were
associated with the Mujahedeen.This literally translated means
Freedom fighter.
In his article Doran The Expert in Muslim political discourse
overlooks one more key
factor. Although this is not substantiated, one is left with
little else in the way of
conclusions when looked at in the light of day. If in fact Bin
laden did have the
intension of using the September 11th attacks to rile the
American sabre, which would
then cause a rift in the Arab world that he could exploit, or
even further a faith based
cause, then it would seem that it has not been as successful as
Doran has labeled it.

For if Bin Laden is supposed to have gotten what he wanted, I
find it hard to believe
that living in a cave in the Mountains with the U.S. army
crawling all over the place
constitutes a victory. In fact the claim is, that Bin Laden is
no longer relevant. At least
according to those in our government whose job it is to know
these things.
It is the possition of many people with the neoconservative
political views, as Michael
Doran has expressed and demonstrated he is, that America has the
right to enact
policy that is beneficial in the preservation ofthe American
Empire. They are in fact
what can be said to be interventionists. This school of thought
is centered on the idea
that we not only have the right to preserve our empire by any
means necessary, but
we have the duty to restrict any other country, society, or
culture from attaining an
empire of their own.
Lets look at the word Empire. According to Websters we see these
definitions when
referring to political empires.
1. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) an aggregate of
peoples and territories, often
of great extent, under the rule of a single person, oligarchy,
or sovereign state
2. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) any monarchy that for
reasons of history,
prestige, etc., has an emperor rather than a king as head of
state
3. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) the period during
which a particular empire
exists
4. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) supreme power;
sovereignty Related adjimperial
5. (Business / Commerce)a large industrial organization with
many ramifications, esp
a multinational corporation
Empire building or Nation Building is the practice of causing
circumstances in
political ideologies that allow the manipulation of power to
work in the advantage of
the practicing party. This can be for financial gain, political
influence or strategic
implementation troops and supplies for future endeavors. This is
at the heart of neo
political view.
These are the principles and values that are currently in play
in our nations capital.
The belief that we are the police force of the world, and that
just because we are
stringent in our beliefs, that it somehow gives the right to
enforce it upon other
nations. If seen from the perspective of a lesser power it would
have to look as though
we are an occupation of force. I have no dought that were there
to be tanks and planes
and soldiers in our streets and over 1 million of our citizens
dead that no matter what
was blasted over an announcement speaker or handed out in
pamphlets, we would

feel like we were being occupied and fought till the death to
oust the invaders. Yet we
view this behavior by our own government and military with
passing concern. We
seem more interested in TIVOing the latest episode of Jersey
Shore and or standing in
line at the Best Buy for 7 hours just to be the first in line to
get the new Ipad.
Michael Doran in his article Someone Elses Civil War
demonstrates the lack of
intelligent persons willing to look at the facts and honestly
assess the situation
regardless of the fear they may feel at the realization of our
country and government
actually colluding in the destruction of what the founding
fathers set forth on this
great land of ours. I see it in the faces of those who ardently
stick to the propaganda
put forth concerning the events of 9/11. I see it on the faces
of media talking heads
that parrot the 9/11 commissions findings in the face of
overwhelming evidence to the
contrary. I also see the citizens in the streets protesting
peacefully while police officials
and army personnel physically abuse them and use torture weapons
to gain
compliance from people who simply wish to bring this nation back
from the brink of
socialism. And I see the best and brightest of our young with
missing limbs, or
missing souls, when returning from the war that has no purpose.
Terrorism cannot be
fought and won over with the lives of our precious youth. And
that is why it was
devised. It is only going to end when those who started it feel
like they have made
enough money off the blood of our children.
