6. To what end? Same as it always when people grow giddy with power.

Money, power, one fuels the other.

I don't believe there is any ideology involved other than simply controlling as much of the world as possible.

It's called 'madness'.

Read the PNAC for their public statement of what they 'dreamed' of.

It's old and it's evil. I doubt they even care whether they are doing any good or not.

They are psychopaths, most of them.

Our only hope is that they will turn on each other.

And there were signs of that after Cheney's 'tell all book' was published.

And more recently after the torture report more or less exonerated Bush, Cheney went ballistic, stated that Bush knew everything and made the decisions.

So, a split among them could weaken them, hopefully.
