"Ending the Neoconservative Nightmare"

Daniel Levy has written a very interest opinion piece entitled "Ending the Neoconservative Nightmare". Levy is no mere pundit, the guy has serious credentials.

Aside from noting that the "neoconservative approach has not been good for Isreal, Levy notes the strangness of Isreal's alliance with the USA Christian right.

"Beyond that, Israel and its friends in the United States should seriously reconsider their
alliances not only with the neocons, but also with the Christian Right. The largest "pro-Israel"
lobby day during this crisis was mobilized by Pastor John Hagee and his Christians United For
Israel, a believer in Armageddon with all its implications for a rather particular end to the
Jewish story.'
