The Koch-Soros Quincy Project: A Train Wreck of Neocon and 'Humanitarian' Interventionists

The flagship of this new alliance, the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, was sold as an earth-shattering breakthrough - an "Odd couple" of "Left-wing" Soros and "Right-wing" Koch boldly tossing differences aside to join together and "End the endless wars."

The moderator of that final panel in the upcoming Quincy Institute first conference is Loren DeJonge Schulman, a deputy director at the above-named Center for a New American Security.

The Quincy Institute's first big event, which it bills as a showcase for a new foreign policy of "Restraint," is in fact just another gathering of Washington's usual warmongers, neocons, and "Humanitarian" interventionists.

Just days ago a glowing article in Politico detailed the recipients of millions of Koch dollars to promote "Restraint." Who is leading the Koch brigades in the battle for a non-interventionist, "Restrained" foreign policy?

Libertarian business tycoon Charles Koch is handing out $10 million in new grants to promote voices of military restraint at American think tanks, part of a growing effort by Koch to change the U.S. foreign policy conversation.

The Atlantic Council has been pushing US foreign policy toward war with Russia for years, pumping endless false propaganda and neocon lies to fuel the idea that Russia is engaged in an "Asymmetric battle" against the US, that the mess in Ukraine was the result of a Russian out-of-the-blue invasion rather than an Obama Administration coup d'etat, that Russia threw the elections to Putin's agent Trump, and that Moscow is seeking to to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

These are the kinds of organizations that Koch and Soros claim are going to save us from Washington's interventionist foreign policy?
