It's the very tone with which our foreign policy has been conducted since the Bush regime came into office. They literally swaggered into office bragging about how they were not going to continue the polices of the preveious administration. Therefore they gave the nod to Israel that the US would not interfere in anything they might do. They purposely dropped the N. Korean initiative and ignored the threat of domestic terrorism in favor of the BUSH DOCTRINE: build missile defense (so that all the major military corporations could make billions), draw up plans to invade Iraq and topple Saddam no matter what the excuse or the costs (so that we could get control of the oil and have a base to bolster Israel), AND REDUCE TAXES FOR THE VERY WEALTHY IN THIS COUNTRY (and thereby plunder the Federal coffers in order to cut back on social programs such as welfare, social security, and Medicare.) Now take a look at what is happening and you will see that the Bush administration has been very successful in getting its way.
