When it comes to Israel, US. policy has, for some time, emphasised
the unbreakable bond between the two countries and our iron clad
commitment to Israel's security. Today our ties to Israel are close
- so close that when there are differences, they tend to make the
news. But it was not always this way. Dennis Ross has been a direct
participant in shaping US. policy toward the Middle East, and
Israel specifically, for nearly thirty years. He served in senior
roles, including as Bill Clinton's envoy for Arab-Israeli peace,
and was an active player in the debates over how Israel fit into
the region and what should guide our policies. In Doomed to
Succeed, he takes us through every administration from Truman's to
Obama's, throwing into dramatic relief each president's attitude
toward Israel and the region, the often tumultuous debates between
key advisers, and the events that drove the policies and at times
led to a shift in approach. Ross points out how distancing the
United States from Israel in the Eisenhower, Nixon, first Bush, and
Obama administrations never yielded any benefits and explains why
that lesson has never been learned. Doomed to Succeed offers
competing advice about how the priorities of Arab leaders can be
understood and how future administrations might best shape US.
policy in that light.
