S2 Ep 31: Does Israel Drive U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East? A Historical Review

In this episode, Dr. Nolte reviews U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East since 1945. Contrary to those who argue that the U.S. intervention in the region is driven by our alliance with Israel, he demonstrates that the U.S. has, and had, compelling interests in the region. He then breaks down practical and ideological explanations for the U.S. Israel alliance.
