Chuck Hagel for Defense Secretary
I've decided that I'm an "anti-neocon." For the past week or so I've been reading about the objections the neocons have to appointing former Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel to be Secretary of Defense. Some of these objections relate to public positions Mr. Hagel has taken regarding the use of our armed forces to get our way in the world, the probability that we will have to drop bombs on Iran to get them to stop their progress toward making a nuclear weapon, the actions of the Likud government in Israel, and the American-Israeli Political Action Committee (AIPAC). To be more specific:
- Mr. Hagel thinks that bombing or taking other military action against Iran would not achieve anything useful and would almost certainly cause a great deal of trouble for us. I agree with this thought. The neocons are hot to threaten to use military force against Iran. I think that such a threat would make the Iranians even less willing to negotiate with us than they are now. The neocons think that the American military establishment is so powerful that any nation threatened with it would decide to obey us and not oppose us.
- The neocons have an uncritical admiration for the conservative Likud regime in Israel. Mr. Hagel thinks, and I agree, that the continuing settlement activity in Israel/Palestine is not only illegal but actually hinders efforts to broker any kind of deal between the Palestinians and the Israeli government.
- Mr. Hagel thinks, and I agree, that the powerful AIPAC lobby, which provides electoral support for members of Congress who express unadulterated praise for Israel and the Likud government is itself a hindrance to achieving a foreign policy that serves our needs. Instead, this Congressional adoration of Mr. Netanyahu's government tends to spoil our relations with many other countries, particularly those with large Islamic populations.
I applaud the President's decision to appoint Mr. Hagel to the position of Secretary of Defense. I think it is high time that we have at least one important member of our government who is willing to express criticism of AIPAC, the Likud government of Israel, the continuing settlement activity, and other activities of Israel that show that some members of the Likud government have no interest in any sort of peaceful settlement of the conflict with the Palestinians.
