The piece argues Reagan revisits a strategic alliance with Israel aimed at countering Assad in Syria while courting Jewish voters. It notes Haig’s dismissal triggered shifts toward Shamir and Arens, the weakened Begin, and a Democratic field lacking a clear Israel policy.

Are Women Still A Sex A Debate On Gender And Politics
