The Politics of Foreign Policy: Will Ukraine Admit NATO?-Part 6/6
Russia hasn’t forgotten the price and burden of direct Middle-East engagement. However Russia, unlike U.S. due to its long-standing relationship with Israel, has the luxury of poking and probing from the flanks of U.S. interests and it is doing so with the help of Syria and Iran.
The Politics of Foreign Policy: The Israeli Anchor-Part 5/6
Israel, as a State, is an absolute and it must remain so and, here again, for two primary reasons:
- The historical relevance (as a foundation for) is a fact.
- If there is ever to be a compelling opposition in favor of a balanced outcome, this State, where the Middle-East is concerned, offers the best of any possible options.
So long as the sectarian conflict remains the most viable option, as a fulcrum thru which normalization in the area is achieved, is not a Two State Solution. Instead, a Confederation of Mutual Governance, one that is completely dedicated to the preservation of the region, is the only hope for long-term stability. Presently the composition of disparate interest is the equivalent of a sectarian tail wagging the dog.
The Politics of Foreign Policy-Part 4/6
Without a deliberate, dedicated and enduring policy that deals directly with eliminating (a multi-generational process) the sectarian problem (and it is a massive problem) and that transcends political ideologies and passing impulses of bureaucratic ideologues, failure is an enduring guarantee. N. Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos are just a few examples.
Although President Obama is not the first president to find himself assuming an active combat scenario his failure-risk is so severe primarily due to his primitively placing the ignorance of ideology before evaluating, understanding and fully addressing asymmetrical risk. Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State, owns this failure right along with the President.
The Politics of Foreign Policy-Part 3/6
Where the Middle-East is concerned and as the British, French, Italians, Germans and Russia (and others before them) learned, you’re either “in” to the death or you stay out. Here are two very specific reasons why:
- The genetics of the Middle-East is of Tribal/Sectarian origins and is completely immune to western ideology.
- They’ve centuries of dealing with the shifting sands of the desert; they’ve learned to survive by waiting out the wind(s).
