"Have the neocons been influenced by Trotsky and the Fourth International?"

Alexander Mercouris answers at the 1:33:40 minute mark in  Phase 2 of operations (Live) - YouTube - March 28.

In a word the answer is yes. I remember being shocked when the author of an article mentioned he'd seen Paul Wolfowitz at a meeting of Trotskyites in the U.S. This might have been around 2003. I had a lot to learn in those days about the neocons. 

Alexander points to Trotsky's idea of continuous revolution as one of the features of neocon thinking. They won't stop, even if Putin gave them the moon. Once they've destroyed Russia, they will move on. 

Should go without saying that the Americans in power who follow the neocon agenda, whether or not they are actual political neo-conservatives, are extremely dangerous people. They have no place in the American government and its defense/foreign policy establishments. But they are dug in deep in Washington, and it seems nothing can dislodge them.
