An excerpt from the alarming new book ‘Iran’s Final Solution for Israel’
In the book, Bostom argues that commentators and policymakers on both the left and right fundamentally misunderstand the nature of the Iranian regime; this leads America and the West more broadly to pursue policies aimed at neutralizing Iran’s nuclear ambitions that are completely ineffective.
Rather, if we understand the true goals, objectives and strategies based on Iranian history, Islamic law and the words and deeds of current actors as well as views among the Iranian citizenry itself, Bostom argues, we will come to completely different conclusions as to Iran’s true nature (and ultimately how to deal with her).
Below is the preface to Bostom’s new book, which he will be discussing today with Chris Salcedo who will be hosting the Jay Severin Show on TheBlaze Radio at 2:30PM EST.
Three lessons can be drawn from examining the Munich Conference of 1938 and the current Geneva Conference regarding Iran’s development of nuclear weapons. The first is that dictators, especially maniacal dictators, tend to be big bullies. The second is that the personality and understanding of the democratic leaders involved are critical. Winston Churchill would have behaved much differently and better than Neville Chamberlain, who was the British prime minister at the 1938 Munich Conference. The third, unfortunately, is that Secretary of State John Kerry is behaving much more like Neville Chamberlain than Winston Churchill.
