      8. So what's behind Netanyahu's folly? I think makes sense if you realize his close ties with American neo-conservatives like Bill Kristol

      9. The strategy of using Congress to overthrow Presidential negotiations one doesn't like has deep roots in neo-con history: Scoop Jackson

      10. Worth remembering that neo-conservatism as foreign policy formation began in Congress as attempt to derail Nixon/Ford/Carter detente.

      11. Beyond strategy of using Congress, neo-cons like Kristol have longstanding desire to polorize USA politics on Israel.

      12. Thinking behind Kristol's advocacy seems to be that if Jewish electorate in USA sees GOP as more pro-Israel, they will move to the right

      13. Like Godot or the Messiah himself, the much-anticipated Jewish move to the right is something always arriving but never shows up.

      14. Typically in presidential elections, about 70% of American Jews for Dem candidate. That doesn't seem about to change soon.

      15. But as unrealistic as Kristol's hopes are, they seem to have an outsized role in shaping Netanyahu's American strategy.

      16. One factor behind all this is the increasing institutional links between Israel right & USA right: driven by think tanks and media.

      17. Tangentially: the Americanization of Israel, and particularly the Israeli right, is an under-explored topic. Worth future exploration.

      18. In the short run, Netanyahu might win a few victories, but in the long run it's hard to see strategy as anything other than a disaster.

          @HeerJeet who could've guessed that a strategy endorsed by William freaking Kristol would be a disaster? I mean, what are the odds?

          @HeerJeet prob best understood as an imperiled politician trying to save himself rather than any sort of coherent strategy for his country
