The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy
The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy is a 2007 book by John Mearsheimer, Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago, and Stephen Walt, Professor of International Relations at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
The book described the lobby as a "loose coalition of individuals and organizations who actively work to steer U.S. foreign policy in a pro-Israel direction". The book "focuses primarily on the lobby's influence on U.S. foreign policy and its negative effect on American interests". The authors also claimed that "the lobby's impact has been unintentionally harmful to Israel as well". Non-Jewish parts of the lobby included Christian Zionists and non-Jewish neoconservatives.
