Yet more evidence that the American Congress is a) divorced from Middle East reality and b) damn keen to do the bidding of the most extreme Zionist and racist ideas by the Israel lobby (via The Cable): Thirty U.S. senators… will vote today over whether there really are 5 million Palestinian “refugees” or just around 30,000…

Despite the fact that the story features Haaretz reporter Gideon Levy telling US viewers that the Tel Aviv bubble…
Bush administration inspired by Israeli homeland security post 9/11
