Publisher's Synopsis
In Mearscheimer and Walt's controversial book The Israel Lobby and American Foreign Policy, they argue that Israel is a strategic liability in US foreign policy, holding the US back in fighting terrorism, interfering with US-European, US-NATO and US-Islamic relations, and, through the excessive influence of the Israel lobby in US politics, distorting US strategic objectives in the Middle East. To what degree might the shoe be on the other foot? In this unique book Ari Barbalat asks whether the US might be the strategic liability in Israel`s foreign policy.
