Anti-Neocons

Personally, I think the evidence shows that the Iraq War is being
spearheaded by a coalition {"conspiracy" if you want] of four rather
different groups.

1. Jewish neoconservatives like Douglas Feith, Paul Wolfowitz and
Richard Perle are certainly a big part of the coalition. [Note: not
"all Jews," but these particular Jewish neoconservatives, are
cheerleading for Bush's war. On the other hand, some radical and
liberal Jews - historian Howard Zinn, journalist Amy Goodman, political
organizer Leslie Cagan, Sen. Russell Feingold, etc. -- are definitely
opposed to the war.] But for the neo-conservatives who are closest to
Bush, bringing about a long-term reorganization of the Middle East
certainly seems to be a major goal of the exercise.

2. In addition to the neoconservatives, we also have
"neo-patriotists," American Protestants who want to see the US kicking
butt in the world on a large scale, and who see in this war a chance to
break the influence of liberal and moderate Americans who believe more
in the United Nations and the rule of international law. These
"neo-patriotists" basically want America to be the leading world
empire, and they don't much care how Bush does it.

I'd say the "neo-patriotists" include Dick Cheney, Don Rumsfeld and
Condoleezza Rice, among others - and their primary goal is not to
defend Israel, but to make American into the biggest bully on the
block. And maybe to make a little money for Halliburton in the process
- hard to see in Cheney's case where imperialism ends and simple greed
begins.

3. Then there is the obvious self-interest of the big oil companies in
seeing the Middle East's oil supplies firmly in US hands - so long as
the US government, of course, can remain in the hands of the oil
companies.
Along with the oil companies, some Wall Street analysts believe, there
also are high-ranking business economists who see the US maintaining a
global lead over the Europeans and Japanese through the occupation of
Iraq, since by controlling Iraq the US can control the energy these
rival capitalist powers need to survive, and also control the prices.

4. Then we have our "Christian Zionists," our born-agains who want to
see Islam defeated world-wide and also want to see Israel invading even
more of historic Palestine, on the grounds that this will fulfill
Biblical prophecy and bring on the Battle of Armageddon and the end of
the world.

Call these the "Left Behind" Christians who want to make sure that
everyone else gets a good, whopping experience of the "Time of
Tribulations."

So I think it's clear than SOME Zionist Jews are playing major roles in
Bush's war cabinets, but they're not carrying on the war alone.

I would agree but use a different word choice. I would say Zionist instead of Jewish. Many Neocons are christians and other non-jewish religious groups and many jews are not neocons like Noam Chomsky and John Stewart for example.

If im not mistaken Chomsky does consider himself a Zionist (as well as a conservitive), but not in the way that people think of Zionism today
