The Center for a New American Security (CNAS) is a militarist pressure group founded in February 2007. Despite its claims to be 'an independent and nonpartisan research institution', the group appears to have an over representation of Democrats. Its concerns broadly mirror those of the Project for the New American Century, with emphasis on equipping the US for a new global conflict.
