Francis Fukuyama on Neo Conservatism

This is interesting.

The problem with neoconservatism's agenda lies not in its ends, which are as American as apple pie, but rather in the overmilitarized means by which it has sought to accomplish them.

Not sure my feelings on this. But Fukuyama's ideas are always thoughtful even if controversial.
