Public radio today interviewed the 2 profs whose book detailed the strength of the Israeli lobby in forming US foreign policy.

Of course Waxman of the ADL had a statement read attacking the 2. Dennis Ross our ambassador to Israel was also on line to guide discussion. NO Arabs, of course.
The profs were bending over backwards to say that of course Israel had a right to make its' desires known and to lobby for what it wanted.

They mentioned the Israeli push to go after Iraq. Then Ross raised the new storyline that Sharon never wanted us to go after IRAQ but wanted us to go after Iran. That's not how I remember what was going on. Sharon was pushing Iraq as a target all along.

I hope the book gets a better distribution than Jimmy Carter's did.
