Last but not least, the neoconservatives’ prescriptions for U.S. foreign
policy are perennially distorted by a strong attachment to Israel, which Max
Boot (and others) have described as a “key tenet” of the entire movement.
There’s nothing wrong with such attachments per se, of course, but it has
crippled their ability to give sensible policy advice to U.S. politicians.
In particular, neoconservatives tend to believe that what’s good for Israel
is good for the United States — and vice versa — which is why they see no
conflict between their attachment to Israel and their loyalty to the United
States. But no two states have identical interests all the time, and when
the interests of two countries conflict, people who feel strongly about both
are forced to decide which of these feelings is going to take priority. | b********n 发帖数: 38600 | 2 The neocons and their AIPAC, WaPo, et al take their script from Netanyahu
and because of the money and their positioning in the Foreign Policy
establishment, it seems impossible to counteract. Indeed, depressing and
tragic for the United States. | b********n 发帖数: 38600 | 3 Neocons believe the Iraq war was a success. That's why they don't apologize
for it. The mostly Jewish neocons believed that Saddam was a threat to
Israel and now he's gone....SUCCESS! They don't count costs because
protecting Israel is important AT ALL COSTS no matter what they are. I feel
very sure that Bill Kristol would try and justify 50,000 American dead.....
500,000 American dead in the Iraq war. He doesn't care as long as Israel's
enemies go down. |
