With neocons like Hillary Clinton who takes a lot of Saudi money anything is possible except bombing Saudi Arabia. And USA always needed a big bad enemy for fear mongering, Saddam, Bin Laden, Putin, US needs a "big baddy" to justify its insane military spendings.

Not only for fearmongering. From the pen of a "conspiracy theorist" George F. Kennan, former US ambassador to Moscow and distinguished Council on Foreign Relations member:

"Were the Soviet Union to sink tomorrow under the waters of the ocean, the American military-industrial establishment would have to go on, substantially unchanged, until some other adversary could be invented. Anything else would be an unacceptable shock to the American economy."

Neoconservatism isn't just about the military industrial complex, or oil, it's also about the Jewish lobby.

Look's like I've said one of those "true if you think it's a good thing, crazy conspiracy if you thank it's a bad thing" facts. No one really denies the link between Jewish Americans, the various Jewish organizations that are active in politics (AIPAC, ADL etc) and US Foreign policy. But people strongly deny this in the context where people criticize foreign policy, and want to redirect discussion towards safe topics like the military industrial complex or oil.

Some will say the most American Jews are liberals and therefore wouldn't support neoconservatism. It's true that they are mostly liberals on domestic policy, but by judging candidates on a single issue (Israel) they end up implicitly helping neoconservative thinking, which places the most emphasis in the US-Israel relation.
