Obama was a neocon

neoliberals and neoconservatives are the same thing with different window dressing

True, but how does neoliberal foreign policy differ from neoconservative foreign policy?

The neoconservative movement didn't really have an interventionist foreign policy (except for trotskyism: hence world revolution) until they switched over to the republican side because they thought the left became too anti-Israel during the counter-revolution days.

I would say George Herbert Walker Bush seniors intervention policies were more akin with neoliberalist ideals and Iraq was more akin to neoconservative Ideals. Or, even better: Iraq was largely a neocon endeavor, and Afghanistan a neoliberal policy.

The neocons like Kristol thought Afghanistan was a worthless idea. Many neocons even wrote books about the terrible woes of meddling in Afghanistan whereas, on the other hand, these same neocons sounded the trumpet for war with Iraq.
