The neo-cons are indeed back in the driving seat (4.00 / 3)
Nuland for one.  The realists are still in the US State Department, but they have been sidelined.  I think they were too pessimistic--sorry--lacked a fitting can-do spirit.  Obama didn't like what they were telling him so he went with the crazies.  No lack of can-do talk with the neo-cons!  True, they never deliver.  But Obama is desperate.
