­How much of a hand does the Israel lobby really have in the US presidential campaign? Is its role overestimated? Is there danger in Netanyahu’s meddling in domestic American politics? And are American Jews monolithic in their support for US policy towards Israel? CrossTalking with Ruthie Blum, Grant Smith and Stephen Zunes.

Interesting material but the lack of discipline, with panel members talking over each other, made it very difficult to fully appreciate the arguments being made. This kind of free-for-all may be good entertainment but does little to shed light on complex problems. Disappointing in that regard, i'm afraid. Allow one person to speak uninterrupted and then give the others right of reply. all the bestBruce CLark NZ

AIPAC and anyone who lobbies for Israel shouild be registered as a foreign agent.  Also any congressmen or senators that support Israel even if it is bad for America should be branded a traitor and taken out of office.

It's interesting that Ruthie Blum would cite John Bolton, a PNAC shill and liar about Iraq WMDs, as a source of confirmation for Iran's nuclear status.  AIPAC and the PNAC have their operatives deep inside the American government. She also didn't say a word about the Mossad agents apprehended on 9-11 and then released.  The power of AIPAC is clear for all to see.  All one has to do is read the speeches given by Obama to them.  There's still plenty of time for more buttocks kissing of AIPAC by Obama and Romney before the election.   Read the speeches, that tells the real story of who sets the agenda for the Middle east.  PNAC and AIPAC.
