| The Presidential Tour of George W. Bush to the Middle East: A New Cold War? In 1946, Winston Churchill delivered his "Iron Curtain" speech in Missouri that helped set the rhetorical stance for the rivalry between the two camps or poles respectively formed by the Soviet Union and the United States after the Second World War. Starting in 2006, the Middle East has been depicted in a similar way by the White House and 10 Downing Street. In the end, history will decide and give its verdict on the miniature version of the Cold War now unfolding in the Middle East. It is no secret that the 2008 presidential tour of George W. Bush Jr. to the Middle East is more about rallying hostility and antagonism against Iran and those forces resisting Washington's political and socio-economic curriculum for the Middle East. The U.S. President's tour is part of an exhorted effort to replace Israel with a vilified Iran as a looming threat to the Arab World. This undertaking which is part of America's Project for a "New Middle East" was initiated after Israel's war against Lebanon in July of 2006. See link for more: |
