Steven Schwartz is a neo-con scholar, who provides proof of the intellectual linkage between neo-conservatism and Leon Trotsky.

Some Trotskyists rejected Communism (and Trotsky) to become conservatives. That does not constitute intellectual linkage unless you can drag Trotskyite concepts out of new-conservatism. Which I think you would find pretty hard to do.

BTW, neocon is a term very few of these people have consistently applied to themselves.

Didn't ex-Troskyite, Irving Kristol, write a book on neo-conservatism?
