Irving Kristol
Won’t be down to breakfast. The original neocon, a socialist who woke up and became a conservative, and was a key figure behind a lot of the conservative thought and action of the second half of the 20th century.
A personal appreciation from Podhoretz at Commentary, where Kristol had his first job post-WWII.
Robert Kagan at PostPartisan on the inspiration.
A quick Kristol: Three decades of thought excerpted at the Wall Street Journal.
The “Godfather of Neoconservatism” himself on “Neoconservatism, the Persuasion.” Weekly Standard.
Condolences and best wishes to Bill Kristol and his family at the culmination of a life well and thoroughly lived.
Topics: conservatism, deep thot
