About this listen
The greatest story in geopolitics and in American domestic affairs is how the far-right government of a small Middle Eastern country came to hold a controlling interest in our foreign policy. Moreover, Israel’s Lobby is now in a position to police the speech of American politicians, college students and journalists, and coerce and persuade the White House to back unpopular, costly, and ultimately national security-threatening policies. From the Biden administration’s unwillingness to bring American leverage to bear to end genocidal violence that only harmed our national security interests, to the Trump administration’s role in lifting the parole restrictions on a spy who had sold vital government secrets, American subservience to its putative client state, Israel, is a vivid and vexing example of the tail wagging the dog.
Israel’s Lobby combines investigative journalism and political science to tie together the stories of American and Israeli oligarchs capturing the policymaking process in successive presidential administrations and the geopolitical, national security and domestic consequences of American foreign policy effectively sold to the highest bidder.
The book explains:
- Why the influence of Israel’s Lobby is even more costly to America and more dangerous as a threat to our freedom today than it was in past decades.
- How the Lobby not only distorts American policy but ultimately circles back to make Israel a “crazy” state.
- Why the Lobby launched an antisemitism witch hunt to suppress opponents rather than attempt to defend Israel's policies.
- How Americans can unite around respect for one another and the importance of substantive debate about critical issues to resist Israel-first vigilantism.
In the tradition of bestsellers like Dark Money and Kochland, Israel’s Lobby will follow the money and lift the veil on a seemingly unassailable feature of American politics, driving to real change.
