The Israel Lobby
04:35 AM 19th May 2009 |
For many years now the American foreign policy has been
characterized by the strong tie between the United States and Israel.
Does the United States in fact keep Israel on its feet? And how long
will it continue to do so? In March 2006 the American political
scientists John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago) and Steve Walt
(Harvard) published the controversial article 'The Israel Lobby and US
foreign policy'. In it they state that it is not, or no longer,
expedient for the US to support and protect present-day Israel. The
documentary sheds light on both parties involved in the discussion:
those who wish to maintain the strong tie between the US and Israel,
and those who were critical of it and not infrequently became 'victims'
of the lobby. The question arises to what extend the pro-Israel lobby
ultimately determines the military and political importance of Israel
itself. Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson (Colin Powell's former
chief-of-staff) explains how the lobby's influence affects the
decision-making structure in the White House.
