Did anyone notice that George II admitted that his Middle East policy will fail? It was right there near the beginning of his State of the Union address, when he said, "America is addicted to oil, which is often imported from unstable parts of the world." He then promised to lay thick subsidies on corporations so they can find us alternatives to iffy oil.
But isn't his policy of shock, awe, and regime change supposed to bring all things wondrous – including stability – to the oil states? Did he let something slip here? Maybe the Hamas electoral victory had an effect on him.

He said in a speach a couple days ago that his foreign policy is directed by his belief in the "Almighty" who made every man free. Basically saying that it's our job to make sure that happens.
So God and History talk to him. I'll sleep better at night.
