Neocons back at the White House?
Topics: Political News and commentariesLaura Rozen is reporting that Obama has invited Brookings Institute scholar Robert Kagan and former Bush deputy national security adviser Elliott Abrams to the White House to discuss the situation in Egypt today:
Just got late word that Dunne, Kagan and others from their group including former Bush NSC Middle East hand Elliott Abrams, as well as George Washington University Middle East expert Marc Lynch, and the National Security Network's Joel Rubin, formerly a U.S. Egypt desk officer, have been invited to the White House Monday.Alana Goodman notes that Kagan and Abrams are meeting with Obama because of their involvement in the Egypt Working Group, an organization that was prophetic in predicting the current crisis in Egypt. Last November, the group was already anticipating the end of President Hosni Mubarak's regime and called on the Obama administration to push the Egyptian leader for human-rights reforms.
Seems like when the sh*t really hits the fan, neocons are suddenly a good thing to have around, after all.
