Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz False Choices on Foreign Policy: What a True Hawkish View Looks Like Ep. 326
Foreign policy in general and the Middle East in particular are full of false choices. In this episode, Jordan Schachtel joins me to co-host and explain why everyone in DC is wrong about foreign policy. Since nobody is giving a full vision on all aspects of foreign policy and how they tie together, we try to accomplish that in an hour.
Our 2,000 troops in Syria are the least important way to counter Iran and are actually counterproductive. If you really want to counter Iran without risking lives and do it more efficiently in a way that directly addresses the threat to us, you’d attack Iran's finances, make the right alliances, get tough on visas and the border, stop funding the Lebanon army and Baghdad, threaten sanctions and NATO status against Erdogan, and destroy Hezbollah’s operation in our own backyard.
How come the same people who want to bring Sharia Islamists to our country also want to put our boots on their ground to then bring in more immigrants?
This and more in our blockbuster end-of-year Foreign Policy Friday show.
