That's a pretty intelligent, well-thought-out speech. I, too, would guess the sentence in question refers to Zionists in America. Of course, to say so openly would have caused Hart a shit storm of "anti-semitism" accusations. So he did a clumsy little dance when asked about it directly... oh well.

That doesn't change the fact that he has some right-on ideas about American policy and its role in the post-Cold War world.

Cheers,
