World watch: Israeli lobby and U.S. foreign policy



Two American political scientists, John Mearsheimer (photo, left) author of The Tragedy of Great Power Politics, and Stephen Walt (photo, right) author of The Origins of Alliances, are accused of being anti-semitic for writing an essay on Israeli lobby's influence on U.S. foreign policy.


Reportedly, one of the point their article makes is how American support for Israel is hurting America, something that almost everyone has talked about.

Few people addressed the issue and the article honestly. One is by
William Pfaff, published in The Korean Herald. Norman Solomon of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, and Eric Alterman of The Nation pointed out how the two international relations professors are discredited.

  • Salam,
    Foreign Policy AS memang ditentukan dari Tel Aviv, justeru samada ia memang menyusahkan rakyat kecil AS atau tidak, bukan lagi persoalan. Memang Yahudi membiayai AS.
