Bush, en modern Harry Truman

I sista numret av tidskriften "Prospekt" (149-2008) skriver Edward Luttwak en ytterst intressant artikel om president Bushs utrikespolitik. Luttwark framför linjen att med alla fel och brister lyckades Bush om inte stoppa det militanta Islams anfall på USA och Västeuropa åtmintonde starkt bromsa upp detta anfall. Förhoppningsfullt har han rätt då det annars inte blir så trevigt för oss. Man kan inte utan vidare avföra argument från en person med Luttwaks renome så jag anser att artikeln är värd att spridas. Pga copyrigth lagar klistrar jag inte in artikeln i bloggen utan ger dess URL.
