Abstract:
Helms’ embrace of Israel in 1985 was a dramatic departure from his prior lack of support of Israel. Given his considerable influence in North Carolina’s Republican party, Helms’ about face made a powerful impact in the direction that modern conservative, right wing movement was to travel. Explained by the author were the reasons for Helms’ favoring a nation he had opposed giving support to since the 1970s.
