		<description>&lt;p&gt;&#039;Abandonment is a straw man.&#039;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It may be. But it&#039;s also the neutral option, the default option; the policy the US wisely follows vis-a-vis most of the other hundred-odd nation-states of the planet. Nothing extreme about that, except in relation to the current policy of extreme support for the rogue state of Israel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The mirror image to current policy would be for the U.S. to recognize Israel for the dangerous destabilizer it is, and take decisive action -- such as destroying Israel&#039;s airfields and air force -- to neutralize the threat.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Merely talking about the Israel Lobby in terms of politics and medium is not sufficient.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At least 1/3 to over 1/2 of major US VC firms have a specialist or specialist team whose job is directing investment to Israel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These guys act in venture finance just like the media gatekeepers and facilitators for the discussion of the ME.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;See &lt;a href=&quot;http://eaazi.blogspot.com/2009/01/blaming-jews-for-financial-meltdown.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Blaming Jews for Financial Meltdown&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Non-Zionist Jews and Jewish Zionists have no problem with working together in corrupt and manipulative social networks in the finance industry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Patrick Lang&#039;s contribution is quite good, focusing on the military benefits we receive (or not). He&#039;s quite scathing on the much-vaunted Israeli intelligence contributions--&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&quot;The Israelis have been careful to separate &quot;things&quot; into neat groupings. They have operated on the basis that their things are their things and US things are their things. I was the principal officer in the US military intelligence relationship with Israel for many years. That was how the relationship worked. It was not a truly two-sided arrangement. The products of Israeli intelligence are sometimes valuable but often do not reach the standard of the legend concerning them. The reverse is not true. ... &quot;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
