Controversies
US global supremacy
According to critics, including
Paul Reynolds, the neoconconservative PNAC aimed to promote American
"hegemony" and "full-spectrum" dominance in its
publications.[29][30][31][32]
Ebrahim Afsah, in "Creed,
Cabal, or Conspiracy – The Origins of the Current Neo-Conservative Revolution
in US Strategic Thinking", published in the German Law Journal, cited
Jochen Bölsche's view that the goal of the PNAC was world dominance or global
hegemony by the United States.[33][34] According to Bölsche, Rebuilding
America's Defenses "was developed by Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz and
Libby, and is devoted to matters of 'maintaining US pre-eminence, thwarting
rival powers and shaping the global security system according to US
interests.'"[33][34]
George Monbiot, a political
activist from the United Kingdom,
stated: "...to pretend that this battle begins and ends in Iraq
requires a willful denial of the context in which it occurs. That context is a
blunt attempt by the superpower to reshape the world to suit itself."[35]
PNAC co-founder Robert Kagan countered such criticism in
his statement during a debate on whether or not "The United States Is, and
Should Be, an Empire":
"There is a vital distinction
between being powerful--even most powerful in the world--and being an empire.
Economic expansion does not equal imperialism, and there is no such thing as
"cultural imperialism". If America is an empire, then why was
it unable to mobilize its subjects to support the war against Saddam Hussein? America is not
an empire, and its power stems from voluntary associations and alliances.
American hegemony is relatively well accepted because people all over the world
know that U.S.
forces will eventually withdraw from the occupied territories.
The effect of declaring that the United States
is an empire would not only be factually wrong, but strategically catastrophic.
Contrary to the exploitative purposes of the British, the American intentions
of spreading democracy and individual rights are incompatible with the notion
of an empire. The genius of American power is expressed in the movie The
Godfather II, where, like Hyman Roth, the United States has always made money
for its partners. America
has not turned countries in which it intervened into deserts; it enriched them.
Even the Russians knew they could surrender after the Cold War without being
subjected to occupation."
