The Cato Institute is libertarian, so them being anti-interventionist shouldn't be surprising. The article was written by a "weekly columnist at Antiwar.com" according to the author's bio, which explains the tone of the headline.

Yes, Cato's branch of politics is in a coalition (a.k.a. the Republican party) with the neocons who like invading other countries, but that doesn't mean they share every single political view as neocons.

They get along very well on the economic issues that are Cato's top priority, but they have some differences on foreign policy.

That's what I meant. Cato has some members who are libertarian but I thought they do employ and propagate garden variety conservatism including neo-conservatives who would not call US interventionism "Regime Change Wars."
