The Cold War has been re-
placed with a variety of new
threats to American national in-
terests ranging from the spread-
ing blight of terrorism and the
increasing danger of rogue na-
tions such as Iran to the problem
of maintaining our economic po-
sition in a rapidly changing world
economy.
Even as voters retreat from
any mention of foreign policy,
their collective fate is increasingly
linked to the ability of American
decision-makers and their diplo-
matic representatives to respond
forcefully and creatively to these
new challenges.
But with the endless budget-
cutting and the loss of morale at
State, that challenge may go un-
met.
As the State
Department cuts
back its activities,
friends and allies
are losing
confidence in
American
commitments.

As the State Department cuts
back its activities, friends and al-
lies are losing confidence in
American commitments; Amer-
ican policy will become increas-
ingly reactive, not proactive.
This affects Jewish interests
/-
in several ways. The weakening
of the State Department means
that the reach of American lead-
ership will continue to shrink at
a time when assertive U.S. diplo-
macy in the Middle East is more
important than ever.
Washington provides the only
possible counterweight to the
growth of terrorist states such as
, \ _D Iran and Iraq; it is President
Hafez al-Assad's desire to im-
prove his relations with Wash-
ington that has kept Syria in line
in recent years, not any change
of heart by the dictator of Dam-
ascus.
With American help, the Mid-
dle East peace process may sur-
vive long enough to begin
changing attitudes hardened by
generations of conflict; without
that help, the region is almost
certain to slip back into endless
violence.
The Clinton administration
has made the Middle East talks
a top priority. But with crises
erupting around the world, and
with the State Department al-
ready operating on an austerity
budget, with more cuts likely, it
will be increasingly difficult for
Washington to maintain that lev-
el of activism.
American could be adversely
affected. ❑
