Discusses

The report/ratio Rebuilding America' S Defenses ( To rebuild defenses of America ), written by the members of the PNAC in 2000, is a document of 90 pages which relates to the military strategy of the United States. This text presents a vast analysis of the situation, as well as a whole of proposals. Because of its importance, so much by its size than by its influence, this report/ratio is equivalent to a political program. A French version is available on.

“ This is the new Mein Kampf. Only Hitler did not cuts nuclear weapons. It' S the scariest document I' ve ever read in my life. ” (This is new the Mein Kampf . The only difference is that Hitler did not have nuclear weapons. It is the most alarming document which I ever read in my life.) Doctor Helen Caldicott, 2000. This comparison will be often used by the detractors of the PNAC, in particular of the pacifist governmental organizations, the political parties, and other associations citizens. According to them, the two texts present great similarities, such as its objectives (domination of the world by only one country), its writers (a radical political movement reaching the capacity) like its consequences (been unaware of and/or underestimated although the group with the capacity considers a world military dictatorship). The difference, that Doctor Helen Caldicott underlines, is that Adolf Hitler did not lay out of weapons of massive destruction such as intercontinental missiles with nuclear warheads, which means that the PNAC is - potentially - much more dangerous.

According to the partisans of the theses of the interior plot, the Attentats of September 11th, 2001 could have been organized by the US government itself in order to be able to justify its military operations since 2001 and to make vote laws liberticides in the name of the fight anti-terrorist. These theses rest, inter alia, on preceding histories such as the Opération Northwoods or the Incendie of the Reichstag of 1933 , of false terrorist attacks allowing the governments extreme measurements under emergency and abrasive pretext of the method of the anguish . The PNAC exposed its plans, in his " report/ratio; To rebuild defenses of the amérique" writing in 2000: " Moreover, the process of transformation the American geopolitical strategy aiming at establishing an American supremacy for XXIe century, even if it brings a revolutionary change, will be probably long in the absence of a catastrophic event and catalyst - as new Pearl Harbor."
