Rarely have I seen so much accurate realpolitik in one article as I see here regarding Israel and the Middle East. Almost all of the important players and strategies are presented: Zionist influence in the US government (Perle and Kissinger), the domination of the Middle East using divide and conquer strategies which explain so much of recent history, and the use of threats and aid packages against Arab countries to induce compliance with US-Israeli policies.
I am not sure about his optimistic forecasts for the region. The denouement of the current uprisings against autocratic regimes in this area that have served the Empire's interests is no where near completion. All one can say at this point is that the Middle East will not remain the same as it was.
