Re Huntington
Many so called pundits dismissed Huntington long ago.
Fukuyama was one, but the list is very very long.
Nye, Kennedy, Bobbitt, Prestowitz, etc., etc.
They each had their own respective agendas.
Call it ' playing three sides ' perhaps, in some cases?
(Term search: playing three sides.)
In any event, many different reasons....
Look at the ' Asia bashers ' ' as a group ':
Usually they bashed the one (or more) they weren't pandering to......cf. Johnson, Friedman LeBard, Prestowitz, Bernstein Munro, etc.;
but not always;
sometimes, now and back then, they even chronicle the conflicts on behalf of the one they are pandering to, eg Ohmae, or, say, Fishman re China.
