Blame Israel (a continuing series)
Despite evidence to the contrary, a former Clinton Cabinet member blames Israel for continuing unrest in the Arab world. No mention of Muslims living under despotism and poverty, or surveys in the Arab world showing the Arab populations do not have the Palestinain issue in the forefront of thier list of "grievances," no mention of US support for dictators, or the probelm of Islam itself. No...it is the Palestinian—Israel issue: a view that is simplistic and wrong.
BTW, Cohen was a Republican (in name only — a New Engalnder Republican).
