Bush's powerful and repeated rhetoric of "freedom" as the gift of the Almighty and the "goal of history" reflects not only a kind of messianic faith in God's plan for humankind; it also hints strongly at the aggressive foreign policy of neoconservative theorists such as Irving Kristol, William Kristol, Paul Wolfowitz and think-tanks such as the Project for the New American Century.
