Eli Clifton and Ian Lustick have published "Israel's Lobby: America in the Grip of a Foreign Power," offering a critique of pro-Israel advocacy and its role in shaping American foreign policy, Mondoweiss reported. The authors argue the Israel Lobby works to maintain unconditional U.S. support for Israeli military and political actions toward Palestinians.
The book examines how domestic advocacy organizations operate within American political structures to advance Israeli interests. According to the authors, these groups exert influence over U.S. decision-making in ways that prioritize Israeli priorities in the Middle East. Clifton and Lustick analyze the mechanisms and reach of pro-Israel lobbying efforts across Congress and the executive branch.
