" They make a strong case that Israel is more of a strategic liability than an asset to the U.S. However, their argument that the Israel lobby, AIPAC in particular, wields significant influence over Congress is a bit weakened by a lack of thoroughness and a reliance on secondary sources. For example, they go to great lengths to quote Congressional staffers who say that the lobby is highly influential and at times ruthless; but they make an inconsistent effort to document and connect the lobby's political contributions to particular members and the public statements of support for Israel, as well as the voting records, of those particular members. To their credit, the authors repeatedly emphasize the point that the Israel lobby - contrary to what some may think - is not a cabal. Rather it is a well organized, well funded, and highly effective group of advocates operating well within the the law. "
