The (Ex) Washington Realist

As the crisis continues, the discussion centered on the entry from last week (Israel's Napoleonic Conundrum) is continuing apace--my thanks to the many thoughtful contributors to what is turning into an ongoing discussion, and one I commend to all TWR readers. I would ask, that to keep the thread consistent, that posters continue to go to the June 29th entry, as there is a good deal of material there. Feel free, of course, to comment on more recent posts as well!
