Wikimedia Commons has media related to Neoconservatism.

Neoconservatism is a political movement born in the United States and the United Kingdom during the 1960s among liberal hawks who became disenchanted with the increasingly pacifist foreign policy of the Democratic Party and with the growing New Left and counterculture of the 1960s, particularly the Vietnam Protest Movement. Some also began to question their liberal beliefs regarding domestic policies such as the Great Society. Neoconservatives typically advocate the promotion of freedom, democracy and interventionism in international affairs, including peace through strength, and are known for espousing disdain for fascism, communism, islamism and political radicalism.
