Great article. Habdok seemed promising. Shame that it was the recognition of Israel that was a lynchpin of sorts in further unrest although perhaps it would have been something else if not that.
The thought of combining countries based on economic incentives is interesting as current borders are pretty arbitrary hey.
“America’s principles are situational” is an understatement. But that probably goes for a lot of countries. It’s probably better to talk about American “interests” and leave the word “principles “ out of the conversation totally.
I’d speculate that the Obama administration anticipated a situation like Syria, Libya, or Sudan in Egypt if a conflict started, and decided stability involved the lesser evils.
I think that's right. Idealism goes out the window during the Arab Spring. It goes back to my point about situational principles, but your point is firmly put in the context of the Arab Spring.
