House Oversight Committee Document (Essay/Article/Speech excerpt) • 2.51 MB
View

This document appears to be page 26 of a larger text (likely an essay, book, or speech) submitted to the House Oversight Committee. The text provides a historical defense of U.S. foreign policy, arguing the U.S. is the 'least imperialistic super power in history' by comparing it to historical empires and contrasting it with the Soviet Union. It specifically discusses the Panama Canal, WWII atomic bombings, and the existential threat posed to Israel by a nuclear-armed Iran, referencing comments by journalist Thomas Friedman and Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. While the document bears a House Oversight stamp, the text on this specific page contains no direct references to Jeffrey Epstein, his associates, or his financial network.
