Good point. The rise of the “non-interventionist” philosophy on the right could be more of a threat to support for Israel than the peace-niks of the left.

They both essentially work out to the same belief: That if the US would take its nose out of other countries business and mind its own, peace would reign supreme. That if we dismantled the “Military-Industrial Complex” we got going on around the world, we’d have this mountain of money we could funnel into all kinds of social spending and finally be able to give everybody the chicken in every pot and car in every garage they were promised.

It’s a nice fantasy, just like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.
