Duelling Lobbies

Today's NY Times Week in Review features a full page ad from the Council for the National Interest Foundation (CNI). The ad is based on the paper I cited last week which argued that US policy re Israel and the Middle East was being overly influenced by the "Israeli lobby". CNI supports this position. It will be interesting to see whether the "Israeli lobby" strikes back.

"Strike back" is not the preferred Lobby tactic. As most of the media is owned and operated by the Lobby, the issue will be ignored by the Lobby. It will, they hope, as all other critiques of Zionist policy, simply fade away. Besides, the big U.S. war with Iran to defend helpless Israel will soon take over the headlines.
