It was colonels like Summers with their paranoia of communism who advised U.S. leaders to squander untold billions on useless and mostly inoperative military hardware; who wasted precious lives and materiel in Vietnam, only to abandon our allies in time of trouble. Now once more he wants to be penny-wise and dollar foolish.
Israel, the only democracy in the entire Middle East, is a faithful friend and ally of the U.S. It has and keeps repaying our financial assistance ten times over.
Would Summers trust Moammar Kadafi of Libya or Saddam Hussein of Iraq not to turn the Middle East into a poison gas-nuclear holocaust that would engulf not only the Middle East but the U.S. as well?
