Excellent. You might note that the CIA, NSA, FBI, Justice Department, etc are not run by the left

Do you know any Republicans? Have you asked their opinion on the subject?

Seriously, during the last election cycle, the CIA blessed Joe Wilson blasting the Bush admin for a junket he had done for them, and allowed M. Scheuer to publish another book blasting the Bush administration. Very obviously designed to try to prevent Bush's election.

Do you call this right-wing behavior?

I notice you didn't mention State, which has hated Israel and the pro-Israel policy since 1948. The linchpin of State ME policy has always been the Saudi alliance. I don't notice nearly the fuss about the strength of the Saudi Lobby, which is tremendous because of the wholesale way they buy friends and influence.

How many well respected Jewish scholars said that we should at least carefully examine the issue?


Which issue? What Israeli policy the US should favor? Dozens. Whether a neocon Jewish cabal is running US policy in Israel's favor, as so many now insinuate? Very few. Once again, you are confusing disagreement with an obnoxious position with PC stifling.

Which "issue" were you referring to?

Don't confuse leftwing Academics & media for government agencies with authority to pursue investigations, without being shutdown. You seem unable to comprehend the difference

Now you're moving the goalposts. You said PC prevented the issue of the US-Israel alliance being discussed. Now you say, sure it can be discussed left, right and center, all over the Academia and the Media, but the FBI is prevented from investigating it. Which is also untrue, or how did two members of AIPAC wind up investigated and charged for (as far as I can see) some quite trivial charge of passing information?

Your real complaint is the majority of American voters don't agree with you, and you think you should be able to overrule them.
