So writes Peter Schweitzer at
Big Peace who has observations about former President George W. Bush and writes:
As President Obama was declaring France as our best and closest ally (doesn’t he read history?), former President George W. Bush was quietly giving thanks to our real friends.
Note my emphasis on “quietly” and “real.” While President Obama seems to enjoy the theatrics of diplomacy, namely giving glowing speeches and apologies, along with publicly chatting with Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, Bush remains his understated best even in private life.
And while Obama has also been difficult on our closest allies–namely Great Britain and Israel -– it seems the former President continues to remind them of our appreciation.
“Some 1,000 security officials and members of Israel’s political echelon gathered at Tel Aviv University on Thursday evening to bid farewell to outgoing Mossad Director Meir Dagan. But the most significant and moving greeting was received from a person who did not attend the event: Former US President George W. Bush."
