Foreign Policy, Foreign Relations: US Foreign Policy & Private Enterprise | HISPBC Ch. 2
Throughout this Q&A session, Russell Berman delves into the complex relationship between U.S. foreign policy and private enterprise in the Middle East. He examines how private sector engagement, such as Israeli companies working in Saudi Arabia, can influence foreign relations and contribute to regional stability. Berman also discusses the challenges of aligning commercial interests with national security objectives and the need for a nuanced approach that considers the unique cultural and political dynamics of the region.

During the period of the twitter revolutions of a decade ago, democratic movements took over, or almost took over, several countries in the Middle East and North Africa, and we found that what the mass of people wanted was often staunch anti-Americanism. In that light, procedural democracy everywhere is not necessarily in the interest of the US. (At the same time, however, propping up moribund regimes can't be in the interest of the US, either, in part because it breeds anti-Americanism.)
In the name of democracy we should all keep quiet and close our eyes on middle issue
😂😂 The West is not a democracy. That kids is lost
Name a democracy..
