The combination of unwavering support for Israel and the related effort to spread \u2018democracy\u2019 throughout the region has inflamed Arab and Islamic opinion and jeopardised not only US security but that of much of the rest of the world. This situation has no equal in American political history. Why has the US been willing to set aside its own security and that of many of its allies in order to advance the interests of another state? One might assume that the bond between the two countries was based on shared strategic interests or compelling moral imperatives, but neither explanation can account for the remarkable level of material and diplomatic support that the US provides.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the thrust of US policy in the region derives almost entirely from domestic politics, and especially the activities of the \u2018Israel Lobby\u2019. Other special-interest groups have managed to skew foreign policy, but no lobby has managed to divert it as far from what the national interest would suggest, while simultaneously convincing Americans that US interests and those of the other country \u2013 in this case, Israel \u2013 are essentially identical.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div align=\"right\">John Mearsheimer e  Stephen Walt, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lrb.co.uk\/v28\/n06\/mear01_.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Israel Lobby<\/a>, London Review of Books<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the past several decades, and especially since the Six-Day War in 1967, the centrepiece of US Middle Eastern policy has been its relationship with Israel.
