re: #39 Kragar (Antichrist )

So, by copying Reagan’s foreign policy, he means:

1) insulting Israel’s prime minister (saying that the Israelis engaged in a Holocaust after a series of airstrikes against the PLO in Lebanon in 1981);
2) demanding a halt to settlement construction or withholding loan guarantees;
3) selling advanced aircraft (AWACS) to Saudi Arabia over the objection of the Israelis who were against the sale because it would give the Saudis equipment that could detect Israeli aircraft at distance; and
4) failing to eliminate Hizbullah following the 1983 Marine Barracks bombing that killed 241 Marines, sailors, and soldiers - and (a short campaign that included the USS New Jersey bombarding targets in Lebanon did nothing to deter Hizbullah in the long term).
