But like a Palestinian throwing stones at an Israeli tank, Foxman is out-muscled by Mearsheimer and Walt's powerfully reasoned, massively documented, and surprisingly easy-to-read work. The two authors are academic elites. Mearsheimer is a distinguished professor of political science at the University of Chicago, and Walt is the former dean of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard. They challenge the presumptions of the fourth military superpower in the world, Israel, and its "amen chorus" in Congress.
Unfortunately, Mearsheimer and Walt discount as "anti-Semitic" the truth that Jews dominate American media, contributing to Zionist influence on US foreign policy. (See, Jews Confirm Big Media Is Jewish) They also reject the reality that much of Israel's abominable behavior toward Palestinians is fueled by Talmudic racism. (See, <http://truthtellers.org/alerts/talmudscalpel.html>The Talmud: Scalpel that Bleeds the Mideast)
They rightly contend, however, that U.S. support of Israel's brutality against Palestinians is the seminal cause of Arab rage and international Muslim terrorism, including 9/11 (pp. 64-70). They affirm that Israel serves no vital U.S. strategic interest. Instead, the Israel lobby and neoconservatives (many of them Jewish) in the Bush administration have led America into mid-East disaster, primarily for the benefit of the Jewish state.
