Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic (CD) (ISBN-13: 9798874886264)

Revealed: How pro-Israel lobbying groups influence the Middle East policies of Britain, the US, and others In 1896, a Jewish state was a pipe dream. Today the overwhelming majority of Jews identify as Zionists. How did this happen? Ilan Pappe unveils how a lobby changed the map of the Middle East. Zionists exerted pressure on the Congress, cracked down on dissent in the Labour Party, and relentlessly smeared critics. Groups funded by the Israeli state pushed for unprecedented military aid, recognition of unlawfully occupied territories, and the erasure of Palestinian rights. Lobbying for Zionism shows us how a dangerous consensus was built--and how it might be dismantled.
