For every Neville Chamberlain there is a George W. Bush.
I mean, if you only need one example to disprove a philosophy, George W slices through your precious neocon philosophy like a hot knife through butter.
I haven’t been schooled in the genre of logic since my high school IB “Theory of Knowledge” class, but this is some sort of fancy latin-named fallacy. Saying “all diplomacy will fail” is like saying “all Republicans are racists.” It might be fun to say, but it’s a fallacy.
P.S., as long as you’re allowed to turn ‘left’ into a bad word, we’re allowed to turn ‘neocon’ into one.
