Political Leadership and Global Conflicts

This chapter explores the ramifications of political leadership's perceived competence on international relations, particularly in light of Israel's military challenges. It critically analyzes the Biden administration's foreign policy response to various global conflicts, particularly focusing on the situations in Israel and Ukraine, and emphasizes the complexities of public support amid these crises. The discussion further draws historical parallels, questioning the lessons learned from previous conflicts and the responsibilities of nations to actively advocate for their foreign policy principles.
