The War Against Syran?

Michael Ledeen makes some very interesting points about our inability to see the Middle East conflict as a regional war being conducted through surogates.

Michael Ledeen on Syria and Iran on National Review Online: "Certainly there is lots of bad news, most of which confirms what we already knew: The Western world hates Israel; the taboo on anti-Semitism is off; the Western world has been P.C.'ed to the edge of death; there is no stomach for fighting the war against Islamic fascism.

Sounds like the Thirties to me."
