You may have heard that the Project for a New American Century (PNAC) no longer exists. Officially, that notorious group of 9/11 suspects, which called for a “New Pearl Harbor” on September 11th, 2000 and got one exactly one year later, disbanded in 2006.
David Ray Griffin’s book The New Pearl Harbor – which lifted its title from PNAC’s infamous “Rebuilding America’s Defenses” memo endorsing the 9/11 attacks one year before they occurred – is widely credited with driving a stake through PNAC’s black heart.
But what you may not have heard is that PNAC is back under a new name: FDD, the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. And wouldn’t you know it, they’re still trying to trick Americans into fighting wars for Israel. This time, their target is Iran.
FDD, the new name for PNAC, just issued a 155-page report calling for the US to “increase Iranian isolation, including through regime change in Syria” and “undertake…overt preparations for the use of warplanes and/or missiles to destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities with high explosives”.

Got that? The same group widely viewed as responsible for the immolation of 3,000 Americans on 9/11 in order to con the US into smashing Israel’s enemies is shamelessly calling for more death and destruction – all paid for, of course, with your tax dollars.
If there were any doubts that FDD is just the new name for PNAC, they’re dispelled by this list compiled by the moderator at DemocratsForProgress.com
