Interesting article, even if it is a re-stating of Kissinger's argument in his book Diplomacy. http://www.findarticles.com/p/articl...36/ai_15593327
The interesting thing is that while realist policy does the most to advance America's national intersts, the American people do not respond well to it. You cannot sell a foreign policy without appealing to idealism.
