Something I liked about William Kristol’s column about Passover is that it had an openly Zionist message. One thing I’ve attacked the neocons for is their lack of transparency about their driving interest in Israel. The more power they’ve gotten, the less straightforward they’ve been. Though now they’re losing power, maybe they’re being more direct. That way Americans get to know their agenda.
Leon Hadar writes @TAC
what Kristol and other leading neoconservatives have been promoting
hasn’t been Zionism (whatever that means) but their own very unique
Zionist agenda in which Israel assumes the role of a crusader Jewish
state in the Middle East that will never make peace with its neighbors
and whose survival will always been dependent on the patronage of an
American hegemon that maintains its dominant position in the Middle
East.
Beautifully put. Americans, are you down with that? I don’t think so. If this is McCain’s agenda, he’s going to get smeare creamed in the fall…
