Trusting the People
Pat Buchanan questions American Foreign policy.
"Why should the United States invest blood and treasure effecting regime change that could bring to power an anti-American populist – as happened when the kings and emperors fell in Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Iran and Ethiopia? Making the Middle East democratic may mean an end to monarchy. But it may also mean our expulsion from the region and a final Arab confrontation with Israel. Is that a goal for which we should shed American blood?"
