The Jewish lobby rates as one of the most powerful in the United
States. It is adept at using PR techniques to sell its ideas and
causes. It consists of a number of organizations and individuals.This
book takes readers inside the Jewish lobby, showing how it operates
behind the scenes to get the United States to support the state of
Israel as strongly as it does. Ever since its creation in 1948, Israel
has found itself surrounded and outnumbered by its Arab neighbors. And
given the enmity existing between Israelis and Arabs, it’s not surprise
that they have gone to battle with each other many times during the
latter half of the 20th century.The strength of Israel’s
military, supplied and trained with U.S. assistance, accounts for its
victory over the Arabs during the Six Day War in 1967. And throughout
the long years of the Cold War, the U.S. remained steadfast in its
support of Israel, while the Soviet Union supported the Arab states.In
enlightening readers about the power of the Jewish lobby, the author
elaborates upon the roots of that power and crises it has faced. He
also points out how Israel doesn’t show full reciprocity in its
dealings with the lobby.
