Laugh all you like, but I read some well-sourced info on Democratic Underground that the PNAC were all part of some Masonic order. In addition to control they wanted to eliminate one of their enemies (Saddam) and hoped to discredit the Catholic Church as one of their primary goals has always been destruction of it (Of course I doubt Protestants would fare much better under their regime considering the deistic sort of religion they want to replace it with.)
Laugh all you like, but this guy down the pub told me X, so OMG
It must be true!!
