On Aug. 28, 2006, Prof. Stephen Walt, a respected scholar, gave a talk at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. He demonstrated how the powerful Israel Lobby has exercised "unmatched power" over our foreign policy for nearly forty years, which hasn't been in the interest of our Republic.

  • "My sympathies are ...

    "My sympathies are all with the Jews. But my sympathy does not blind me to the requirements of justice. Palestine belongs to the Arabs [as] England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be justified by any moral code of conduct."
    Mohatma Gandhi 1938

  • "Because of ...

    "Because of powerful political, economic, and religious forces in the United States, Israeli government decisions are rarely questioned or condemned. Israel's continued control and colonization of Palestinian land ...depriving Palestinians of their basic human rights have been the primary obstacles to a comprehensive peace agreement in the Holy Land."
    President Jimmy Carter

    They always get what they want. The Israelis know what is going on all the time. I got to the point where I wouldn't write anything down. If the American people understood what a grip these people have got on our government, they would rise up in arms."

    "The zionist argument to justify Israel's present occupation of Arab Palestine has no intelligent or legal basis in history."

    "Don't worry about American pressure, we the Jewish people control America.", Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon 10/3/2001
    You guys should look into people like Norman Finkelstein, Scott Ritter, John Mearsheimer, Stephen Walt, Tony Judt, Micheal Scheuer, Noam Chomsky and George Gallaway of course. We have great people speaking out against Zionism and we need it now more then ever. WE MUST NOT GO TO WAR WITH IRAN!!! It would be a big mistake.

  • The evidence, i.e. ...

    The evidence, i.e. the facts speak for them selves. Subjective comments based on personal believe do not change that. Be happy you live in a country where the facts are what matter or someone might burn you at the stake for being a witch. Fanatics of any kind, Christian, Jewish or witch hunter...it matters not, they are all dangerous. Facts are what matter and in this case they are clearly presented, along with the evidence by the professors.

  • "We don't support ...

    "We don't support Israel because we have a common threat from terrorism; we have a common threat from terrorism because we support Israel."

    I wish this could be broadcast on every radio and tv station on the planet, and in every newspaper. It's time for Israel's free ride to end.

  • The United Nations ...

    The United Nations (started and based in the US) committed to permanent support for Isreal (putting the Lobby aside), only because the Bush administration mocked the UN before invading Iraq (and since have found out they exaggerated or lied) have people forgot the UN's historial signifigance. These professors have nothing better to do but slam Isreal for defending itself from nutcases kidnapping and murdering it's soilders eh. Kudos.
