Mr. Journo remarked that the refusal to issue objective moral judgments in the area of foreign policy has crippled the ability of the United States to set priorities and properly identify our allies and enemies. In the context of Israeli-Pal- estinian relations, this “morally gray” approach has caused the United States to ignore the basic char- acteristics and goals of each side, and thus resulted in a series of destructive compromises rather than a lasting victory. Mr. Journo further explained that the single most important guiding principle for U.S. foreign policy should be the protection of its own citizens’ individual rights.

n September ARI fellow I Don Watkins was published in The American, the online magazine of the American Enterprise Institute, an important think tank. In his essay, “Bernie Madoff, Steve Jobs and Wall Street Greed,” Mr. Watkins argues that it is wrong to equate criminals like Bernie Madoff with creators like Steve Jobs.
