US-Containment Policy is Main Hazard for Peace in the Middle East

Ira Chernus, University of Colorado | October 8, 2009

The Obama administration's middle east policy is largely unsuccessful due to its containment policy towards Iran. ++ The „US' moves meant to contain the power of Iran, are the main stumbling block on the path to a US-brokered two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.“ ++ In order to reach sustainable peace in the greater middle east, and particularly in Israel and Palestina, the US government should tear down „the wall of containment“ and start considering the concessions Iran is willing to make.

I like this comment! What's this?

There is a great deal of frustration and anger in this article, and, I suppose, in its author. Criticisms that splash mud at vast areas certainly do not inspire optimism or attempts to make things better; neither do they penetrate deeply enough to reveal core deficiencies. Perhaps this article should best be regarded as what some U.S. commentators have charitably dubbed their own similar diatribes -- entertainment.
