Discussion About the Impact of the Israel Lobby On American Politics

Hear a discussion with the authors of a new book entitled- The Israel Lobby & U.S. Foreign Policy. The Authors, John Mearsheimer & Stephen Walt, are on target with their analysis regarding how U.S. foreign policy is being held hostage by Israel. The U.S. sides with Israel (automatically in most cases) even at the expense of our own best interests.

Anyone who even questions the U.S. relationship with Israel, or raises concerns about the Israel Lobby in this Country (AIPAC for example) is labeled anti-semitic.
The authors also discuss how American politicians, particularly the Presidential candidates, are afraid of the Israel Lobby.

Interesting discussion.
