  • The Israel-Lebanon War of 2006 and the Failure of US Foreign Policy
    Journal of Politics and Law; Vol. 8, No. 1; 2015 ISSN 1913-9047 E-ISSN 1913-9055 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education The Israel-Lebanon War of 2006 and the Failure of US Foreign Policy Hamed Mousavi1 1 Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada Correspondence: Hamed Mousavi, Room B640, Loeb Building, Carleton University, 1125 Colonel by Drive, Ottawa, ON, K1S 5B6, Canada. E-mail: [email protected] Received: January 19, 2015 Accepted: February 5, 2015 Online Published: February 27, 2015 doi:10.5539/jpl.v8n1p130 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v8n1p130 Abstract This paper argues that the US encouraged the starting, continuation and even expansion of the 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon in order to achieve its own hegemonic objectives in the region. While global hegemony has always been on Washington’s agenda, in the Bush administration, with neoconservatives sitting behind influential desks in the capital, the initiative got new impetus. According to this new approach, the goal was to be advanced with the confrontation and eventual defeat of the Iran-Syria-Hezbollah-Hamas axis, a move that would help create a ‘New Middle East’ in which opposition to US-Israeli policies would not be tolerated. The paper uses a Neoclassical Realist theoretical approach to show that Washington’s miscalculation of power relations in the region led to the failure of its foreign policy. Like the Iraq War of 2003, the 2006 Lebanon War was a disaster for the US. With the encouragement and support of the Americans, the Israeli war machine fought an inconclusive war with Hezbollah, as a result of which the status of the Israeli military as the Middle East’s ‘Invincible Army’ was shattered and archenemies Hezbollah and Iran were strengthened.

Alexander Hamilton once worried about ex-presidents ‘wandering among the people like discontented ghosts.’ Actually, I think we seem pretty happy. – jenna bush hager – president george w. bush ABOVE: A self-proclaimed “sock man,” President George H. W. Bush had some fun with his polka-dotted accessories at the dedication. Presidential granddaughter Jenna Bush Hager tweeted a photo and wrote, “One of the cutest, sweetest men I know loves a good sock.” 35 The presidency is about all of the people, civilian and military, who join with that president in years of service to our remarkable Nation. They are the people who put in countless late nights and earlier mornings, who spend less time with their family and friends and more time hard at work caring for our country. This building is here because of your service, and for that George and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

  • Personal Diplomacy Painting
    Personal Diplomacy “I placed a high priority on personal diplomacy. Getting to know a fellow world leader’s personality, character, and concerns made it easier to find common ground and deal with contentious issues. That was a lesson I had picked up from Dad, who was one of the great practitioners of personal diplomacy.”-- President George W. Bush Personal diplomacy -- the forging of close relationships between world leaders -- is an important part of Presidential leadership that can strengthen alliances, diffuse disagreements, and foster a greater understanding among nations. President George W. Bush used personal diplomacy to build strong relationships with fellow leaders. He used meetings at the White House, Camp David, his ranch in Texas, and abroad to encourage international cooperation and address challenges such as terrorism, tyranny, disease, and the global economy. Painting “Two years ago, I was sitting up here wondering how to live life to the fullest. And I read Winston Churchill’s essay Painting as a Pastime and it inspired me. I had never lifted a brush before. I’d never mixed a paint, and so I gave it a whirl.” -- President George W. Bush (HCV*) “What people will be able to come away with is: how do I feel about somebody I painted? That’s really the most important thing about it. Painting portraits of my friends and some people who weren’t necessarily my friends gave me a sense to convey a feeling I have about them because I got to know them well during the Presidency. I learned about their families and their likes and dislikes to the point where I felt comfortable painting them.” -- President George W.
