Evangelicals, Zionists & Neocons

There is a very effective political dynamic that is created when religious lobbies join forces with secular lobbies. One lobby can argue its point obliquely by pushing the other lobby's goals. For example, Iraq has the second largest known oil reserve. Iraq is also a threat to Israel. Wolfowitz used oil as part of his sales pitch for " regime change" in Iraq with Israeli security as a side issue. This tactic helps him sell his idea to Cheney who is eager for American-empire as stated by The Project for the New American Century. Cheney then talks to Dubya in terms of Iraq's national security threat. Dubya then talks to the American people in terms of spreading democracy as the antidote to a terrorist breeding atmosphere. This hides his god-directed " charge to keep" mission of evangelism in Muslim countries.

The true interests of the three players is hidden opaquely from view.
