[lbo-talk] The end of the PNA website.

This is sad news in a way. The site was always a good place to reference to show people what the neocons policy agenda was straight from the horse' s mouth so to speak. I can think of four reasons why the site is no more:

1) The neocons think it was too useful to the left

2) The policy is already part of the mainstream so that the site is no longer needed.

3) The neocons are broke (very unlikely)

4) The site is being bought out by the PNCC (Project for a New Chinese Century)

PNAC No More? May 20, 2008 in <a title="View all posts in News" href="http://www.antiwar.com/blog/category/news/" rel="category tag">News</a> by <a class="url fn" title="Articles by Jim Lobe" href="http://www.antiwar.com/blog/author/jimlobe/">Jim Lobe</a> The website of the Bill Kristol’s <a href="http://rightweb.irc-online.org/profile/1535.html">Project for the New American Century</a> (<a href="http://www.newamericancentury.org/">www.newamericancentury.org</a>) has vanished. If you go to the <a href="http://www.ips.org/blog/jimlobe/www.newamericancentury.org">site</a>, you are diverted to another one that says, “This Account Has Been Suspended. Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.” A metaphor, perhaps, for the bankruptcy of the ideas that inspired the project and the strategic disaster that they produced for U.S. interests in Iraq, the greater Middle East, and the wider world? You can still find most of PNAC’s documents — including its letters and their signatories — <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://newamericancentury.org">through www.archive.org</a>, but it seems that the original site is gone for lack of payment. While the site became effectively dormant in 2005, its sudden disappearance is somewhat alarming. What does it say about the new American Century itself, particularly in light of the slew of recent books on the decline of American power and the end of unipolarity? A coincidence or an augury? <a href="http://www.lobelog.com/"></a>Visit <a href="http://www.lobelog.com/">Lobelog.com</a> for the latest
