From
“a
research
scholar
with
impeccable
academic
credentials
.
.
.
A
complete,
patient
catalogue
of
the
financial
details
of
Saudi
influence
peddling”
(National
Review).While
critics
claim
that
a
nefarious
Israel
Lobby
dictates
U.S.
policy
in
the
Middle
East,
the
Arab
Lobby
in
this
country
is
older,
richer,
and
more
powerful
than
the
American
Israel
Public
Affairs
Committee
(AIPAC).
The
Arab
Lobby
is
the
first
book
in
more
than
25
years
to
investigate
the
scope
and
activities
of
this
diffuse
yet
powerful
network.
Author
Mitchell
Bard
courageously
explores
the
invisible
alliance
that
threatens
Israel
and
undermines
America’s
interests
in
the
Middle
East.“Illuminates
the
dark
side
of
the
massive
and
largely
undemocratic
Arab
lobbying
efforts
to
influence
American
policy
with
regard
to
the
Middle
East
.
.
.
A
must-read.”
—Alan
M.
Dershowitz“In
a
pointed
response
to
John
Mearsheimer
and
Stephen
Walt’s
equally
scathing
The
Israel
Lobby
and
U.S.
Foreign
Policy
(2007),
Bard
goes
full
throttle
in
pursuit
of
what
he
sees
as
a
more
insidious,
if
less
vociferous
behind-the-scenes
lobby
by
the
masters
of
Gulf
oil
and
foes
of
Israel.”
—Kirkus
Reviews“A
seriously
and
timely
look
at
a
powerful
and
remarkably
under-studied
influence
on
U.S.
foreign
policy.”
—Tablet“Extraordinarily
well-researched
.
.
.
Bard
has
performed
a
valuable
service
with
his
book,
which
will
be
eye-opening
to
many,
even
among
friends
of
Israel,
who
are
not
aware
just
how
deep
and
long-lived
is
the
historical
animus
not
only
to
the
actions
of
the
Jewish
state
itself
but
also
to
the
very
idea
of
a
Jewish
state
at
all.” —Commentary
