That's not neoconservatism. I agree that intervention is sometimes necessary, but neoconservatism is too extreme, as it involves military recklessness, high spending, and useless wars.
Nobody ever wanted useless wars except for Caligula. Nobody ever argued for military recklessness. Neoconservatism is the belief that totalitarianism must be opposed in every way including military force.
