James Petras: The Power of Israel in the United States, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book is a chapter-by-chapter analysis and documentation of the power of Israel via the Israeli, Jewish or Pro-Zionist Lobby on u. S. Middle East policy. It raises serious questions as to the primary beneficiary of u. S. policy and its destructive results for the united States. The extraordinary extent of political, economic, military and diplomatic support for the state of Israel is explored, along with the means whereby such support is generated and consolidated. Contending that Zionist power in America ensured unconditional u. S. backing for Israeli colonization of Palestine and its massive uprooting of Palestinians, it views the interests of Israel rather than those of Big Oil as the primary cause of the disastrous u. S. wars against Iraq and threats of war against Iran and Syria.
