OnlineJoin Nation editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel, Nation columnist and author Jeet Heer, Daniel Levy, Eli Clifton and Ian Lustick in a no-holds-barred conversation about Clifton and Lustick’s new book, Israel’s Lobby: America in the Grip of a Foreign Power.
The greatest story in American domestic affairs is how the far-right government of a small Middle Eastern country came to hold a controlling interest in United States foreign policy. Israel’s Lobby combines investigative journalism and political science to tie together the stories of American and Israeli oligarchs capturing the policymaking process in successive presidential administrations and the geopolitical, national security and domestic consequences of American foreign policy effectively sold to the highest bidder. Are long-held assumptions finally shifting? If so, how and to what consequence? Join the conversation on August 12. This virtual conversation will leave ample time for audience Q&A.The event is free but registration is required. Attendees will receive a Zoom link in the email confirmation after registration.
