I always get a kick out of people who are so confident this tiny Israeli lobby secretly controls our foreign policy. With less than a $1.5 billion lobbying budget, AIPAC can't even deliver the Jewish vote (Jews vote overwhelmingly democrat at every election). Further, the oil, agricultural, and Union lobbies all have budgets of over a half billion dollars for lobbying. The various Arab countries spend over $3 billion in lobbying. But somehow, the conspiracy theorists are positive our senators and congressmen really support the totalitarians on the Arab side and hate the Israeli democracy, but they go ahead and support Israel because they fear the "Israeli lobby." It is an utterly absurd accusation. If this is true, Obama was born in Kenya, the Mayan's were right about the end of the world, and the CIA bombed the World trade center.
