Fukuyama Abandons Neoconservatism



Fukuyama Abandons Neoconservatism

"...it seems very unlikely that history will judge either the intervention [in Iraq] itself or the ideas animating it kindly."
- Francis Fukuyama, who wrote the best-selling book The End of History and was a member of the neoconservative project, who now has gone as far as to say that "the [neoconservative] movements' advocates are Leninists who "believed that history can be pushed along with the right application of power and will. Leninism was a tragedy in its Bolshevik version, and it has returned as farce when practised by the United States".
