Supporting Israel’s existence is not foreign policy intervention.
You Fortress America types need to get your stories straight.
Putting bases in Saudi Arabia is. Overthrowing leaders (usually after putting them in power to begin with/arming them) is. Giving Israel weapons is, although I’m in favor of selling them or any nation what they want so long as we don’t turn around and say “Now they’re a threat! We must invade them!” That’s the “Jack Palance in ‘Shane’” foreign policy approach. And what about Zbigy and Carter practically creating Al CIAda, err Al Quada to begin with in 1979 under Operation Cyclone to fight the Russians? This Trotskyist/Straussian/Wilsonian foreign policy approach never works for one simple reason: They never consider the reaction to their actions. They figure today is Friday, so the week must end on Friday. When Saturday comes, they are shocked.
