I don't think that the Israeli lobby is unique. It may differ from the others in the extent by which it is focused on just one issue, which is the survival of Israel, which is understandable, and promoting Israeli development and aid to Israel, and so forth and so on.

I don't know what will happen 100 years from now.

I wouldn't rule out the possibility of Muslim or at least Arab countries developing some form of organization comparable to the European Union. I don't think that's very likely, but it conceivably could happen.

A lot of people tend to think I'm a dogmatic ideologue, which I'm not.

Expectations should not always be taken as reality; because you never know when you will be disappointed.

Quite obviously power will continue to play a central role in global politics as it always does. But usually there is something else.
