Alan Sabrosky, who states that he is a Marine veteran and graduate of the Army War College, at information clearinghouse:
At present, a large majority of Americans
support Israel, having been fed a steady diet for decades of Israeli
“victimisation” in the face of Arab “barbarism.” But that support is,
as the saying goes in America, “a mile wide and an inch deep,” and
AIPAC and company know this, which is why they work so hard to filter
what most Americans see, hear and read about the Middle East. But it is
a filter that is starting to weaken — a difference that is reflected in
growing criticism of Israel and of US support for it. Disrupt this
pro-Israel filter, make historical events like the Israeli assault on
the USS Liberty and the IDF’s murder of a young American woman named
Rachel Corrie household words in the US, bring images of ravaged Gaza
into American homes, and watch the world start to change — because it
can.
