我知道。“教父”这个比喻被过度使用了。克鲁门萨,康妮,美国,等等等等。但请多多包涵。(《教父》中的角色)
在美国的十年反恐中,布什政府是桑尼(马龙•白兰度饰演教父角色的长子)激烈、头脑发热、快速反应过度,容易走入别人设的陷阱,无论是收费亭(该角色在电影中被设局枪杀于公路收费亭)还是伊拉克战争。奥巴马政府是迈克尔(阿尔•帕西诺饰演的教父第三子,后继任教父)沉着,冷静,搞笑,如果需要可以无情,总是进行长效博弈。
O.K., now the Godfather part. Here’s how to think about the last 10 years of U.S. counter-terrorism policy. The Bush administration was Sonny Corleone: blustering, hot-headed, quick to overreact, easy to sucker into an ambush, whether at a toll booth or in Iraq. The Obama administration is Michael Corleone: calm, cool, efficient, ruthless when it needs to be, always playing a long game.
