    Default "Israel lobby" is a null hypothesis

    I acknowledge the validity of many of the points described. However the existence of a "lobby" is entirely inconsequential. Is the said lobby a force for good or ill?

    I feel the Israel Lobby is more of a force for good on the whole.

    In 2010 does US foreign policy officially have to be;
    "No Jews Allowed" ?

    Honestly?

    It is consequential when its flagship organization is at the best in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938; and at the worst connected to ongoing espionage and influence operations by a foreign government against the US.

    What good has our unconditional support for Israel done for us? What have we gained from it in the past 20 years? Are said gains worth the cost in American lives and treasure? Moreover, what good does it do for Israel’s national security?

    This is a shameless and infantile comment.
