Study alleges US sets aside own security interest for Israel's | csmonitor.com


A very interesting study that confirms what we have been saying for years, through simple observation. The U.S. no longer has any credibility as an honest broker in the middle east.

Study alleges US sets aside own security interest for Israel's csmonitor.com:

"A research paper by two leading American political scientists alleges that the US relationship with Israel is not good for US security, and that the Israeli lobby in the US, particularly the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee, has helped exaggerate to the US media and public the importance of making the protection of Israel a key part of US foreign policy.
John J. Mearsheimer, a professor of political science and a co-director of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago, and Stephen M. Walt, academic dean of the Kennedy School, published their paper, 'The Israeli Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy,' on the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University website. A shorter version was also published by the London Review of Books.

Mr. Mearsheimer and Mr. Walt question the relationship between the two allies right from the beginning of the paper:"
