{{data.pair|Text|by Marc Cooper: &ldquo;After two decades in the U.S. Air Force, Lieutenant Colonel [[Karen Kwiatkowski]], now 43, knew her career as a regional analyst was coming to an end when — in the months leading up to the [[US-Iraq War|war in Iraq]] — she felt she was being "propagandized" by her own bosses. .. With master’s degrees from Harvard in government and zoology and two books on Saharan Africa to her credit, she found herself transferred in the spring of 2002 to a post as a political/military desk officer at the Defense Department’s office for Near East South Asia (NESA), a policy arm of the Pentagon. .. Kwiatkowski got there just as war fever was spreading, or being spread as she would later argue, through the halls of Washington. Indeed, shortly after her arrival, a piece of NESA was broken off, expanded and re-dubbed with the [[George Orwell|Orwell]]ian name of the [[Office of Special Plans]]. The OSP’s task was, ostensibly, to help the Pentagon develop policy around the Iraq crisis. .. She would soon conclude that the OSP — a pet project of Vice President [[Dick Cheney]] and Defense Secretary [[Don Rumsfeld]] — was more akin to a nerve center for what she now calls a "[[neoconservative]] coup, a hijacking of the Pentagon."&rdquo;}}<noinclude>
