OP-ED: "Israel Is Now America's Closest Ally," by Michael Oren, Wall Street Journal, 7 May 2008, p. A19.
The problem is, what has the last seven years got us, and are we looking for more of the same with McCain, pictured here as natural heir apparent.
But hard to argue with success. As Oren notes, more than 70% of Americans favor robust ties with Israel.
Of course, the same 70-plus percent probably want out of Iraq too.
Nice historical piece by Oren. His book on America's relations with the Middle East over the past 250 or so years was really great.
