Revealed: How pro-Israel lobbying groups influence the Middle East policies of Britain, the US, and others

In 1896, a Jewish state was a pipe dream. Today the overwhelming majority of Jews identify as Zionists. How did this happen?

Ilan Pappe unveils how a lobby changed the map of the Middle East. Zionists exerted pressure on the Congress, cracked down on dissent in the Labour Party, and relentlessly smeared critics. Groups funded by the Israeli state pushed for unprecedented military aid, recognition of unlawfully occupied territories, and the erasure of Palestinian rights. Lobbying for Zionism shows us how a dangerous consensus was built-and how it might be dismantled.

Vital history

This is a brilliant and timely book. It's a must read for those who feel the mainstream news don't go properly into the history of Israel and this book reveals why they often do that.

I thought the earliest chapters were the most interesting about the birth of Zionism and the work done in America to really bring it about.

My only negative with the book is it's length. While that reveals just how much research Pappe did, and the huge amount of lobbying uncovered, I felt it was just too much as I felt the book could have been half the length and still conveyed its crucial history just as effectively.

But, I will definitely re-listen to the earlier chapters again, the birth of AIPAC and the lobbying done to undermine Corbyn as I felt these were the most critical events to me.

5/5
