The Current: Part 2
Israeli Lobby Feature
Two American academics are causing some shock and awe over their writings on
the U.S. Israeli Lobby. Their theories are considered by critics to be so
objectionable that they set off a furor even before they'd been published.
It all began in 2002 when The Atlantic Monthly commissioned an article by two
leading experts on international relations. They were asked to write about the
role American-Israeli relations play in US foreign policy. 2 years later the
article was dead, killed by the magazine forcing the professors to go shopping
for a new publisher. It finally went to print last year unleashing a firestorm
of criticism. Calls of anti-semitism.
Now the authors have spun their article into a book called, The Israel Lobby
and US Foreign Policy. And with that another literary grenade has been lobbed
into the political arena.
To discuss his argument and the intense reaction to it, we were joined by
co-author John Mearsheimer. He teaches political science at the University of
Chicago.
