Chapter 86 American New Century

In September 2000, a few weeks before the U.S. presidential election and a year before 9/11, a little-known Washington think tank published an opinion piece.The article, titled "Rebuilding America's Defense," lays out very clearly the policy intentions of the next administration.The article was written by an influential Republican group calling itself the "Project for a New American Century." The members of the "American New Century Project" are the same group as the policy team of the new government.The project team included Honeyburton CEO Cheney, Don Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz, who was Rumsfeld's undersecretary of defense and led the Iraq war hawks figure.The American New Century Project also included Cheney's chief of staff, Lewis Libby, and Karl Rove, who later became the most influential political strategist in George Bush's group.Senior managers such as Bruce Jackson of the largest military enterprise Lockheed Martin, Richard Pearl and Florida Governor Jeb Bush are also among them.

The chairman of the American New Century Project was William Crystal, who built the hardline media empire "The Weekly Standard".It was he who raised $10 million from Rupert Murdoch, publisher of The Times in London, England.Because of these hard-line supporters, the report of the American New Century Project is worth reading carefully.But few people read it before 9/11. The report of "America's New Century Project" started with a simple question: "Does the United States have a solution to form a new century that is conducive to American principles and interests?" The report believes that the United States is the only superpower in the world today.At present, the United States has no competitors on a global scale, and the highest strategy of the United States is to maintain and expand this dominant position of the United States, as long as possible.However, there are still some potential powers who are dissatisfied with this world pattern and try to change it...

This report is very clear, they know the distribution of power in Eurasia from Europe to the Pacific Ocean. Project America for a New Century praised the 1992 strategy white paper that Wolfowitz wrote for then-Secretary of Defense Cheney during the first Iraq war. The "Plan" pointed out that "the national defense policy guidelines were drafted in early 1992, and these principles provided a blueprint for maintaining the superpower status of the United States, restraining the rise of competitors, and constructing a new international security order in accordance with the interests and principles of the United States."Bush ordered the 1992 policy report to be hidden. When a copy of the 1992 report was leaked to The New York Times, it caused an instant sensation.The report details the use of pre-emptive warfare to eliminate powerful competitors.In September 2002, George Bush formally formulated the US National Security Strategy, also known as the Bush Doctrine.

Cheney and his colleagues are now revisiting the 1992 road to empire for post-Cold War America.They assert that the United States must contain any advanced industrial nation that challenges U.S. leadership, even if it aspires to regional or global dominance. The "American New Century Plan" not only considers global control, such as suggesting that Washington establish a worldwide "command and control system", they also call for the development of space forces to control space, control cyberspace, develop biological weapons targeting specific biological types, and even Biological warfare in the realm of terror can be transformed into a useful political tool.Even George Orwell was appalled by it.

In September 2000, the "American New Century Plan" continued George Bush's "Axis of Evil," pointing out that North Korea, Iran, and Iraq were the three axes of evil and threatened the new American century. The whole world witnessed the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon from CNN's TV screen, and then heard the name of Osama bin Laden.But just a few months ago, Cheney's plan aimed at Saddam Hussein's Iraq and strongly emphasized that the US policy was to exercise direct military control over the Gulf.The report declares: For decades, the United States has sought to play a permanent role in the security of the Gulf region.When tensions with Iraq became irreconcilable, the urgency of deploying a strong U.S. military in the Gulf was greater than addressing Saddam Hussein's regime.

In the months leading up to the bombing of Baghdad, the phrase "the need for a strong U.S. military presence in the Gulf" was repeated to people around the world.For Cheney, Wolfowitz, and their ilk, Iraq was an easy excuse for them to justify "the need for U.S. troops in the Gulf" when there was no discussion of Iraq's WMD and no point to it Iraq has ties to terrorists.See September 2000, in Washington, DC, the American New Century Project "Rebuilding America's Defense."Oliver Beckman and Julian Borg in "Ex-Presidents' Club" in The Guardian, 31 October 2001.This is one of the few pieces of information in the world about this most influential and mysterious group.
